This study attempts to empirically investigate the excess returns of growth stocks in the Korean stock market comparing with those of value stocks. Recently, a few of IT and bio-pharmaceutical stocks with high growth potentials have accomplished dramatically high returns in the Korean stock market. Whereas, important prior studies in this line have observed negative excess returns from investment of growth stocks on average. And a few studies have reported that the distribution of excess returns from growth stocks is not normal but positively skewed. Empirical results of the present study are consistent with those of prior studies. Interestingly, the present study observed serial inverse correlation between excess returns of growth stocks and value stocks. Also, regardless of growth or value stocks, the stocks with higher PEG(=PER/ROE) showed higher excess returns.

As a result of the United States (U.S) -China trade conflict, the recent instability of the stock market has led many people to invest in Bitcoin, a commodity that many previous studies have interpreted as a safe asset. However, recent Bitcoin market price fluctuations suggest that the asset's stability stems from speculative purchasing trends. Therefore, classifying the characteristics of Bitcoin assets can be an important reference point in analyzing relevant accounting information. To determine whether Bitcoin is a safe asset, this study analyzed the correlation between Bitcoin and economic indicators to verify whether gold and Bitcoin responded similarly in time series analyses. These show that the regression explanatory power between the price of gold and bitcoin is low, thus no relation between the two assets could be drawn. Additionally, the Granger causality analyses of six individual economic variables and Bitcoin did not establish any notable causality. This can be interpreted that short-term price fluctuations have a significant impact on the nature of Bitcoin as an asset.

In current algorithm trading system, general users need to program their algorithms using programing language and APIs provided from financial companies. Therefore, such environment keeps general personal investors away from using algorithm trading. Therefore, this paper focuses on developing user-friendly algorithm trading system which enables general investors to make their own trading algorithms without knowledge on program language and APIs. In the system, investors input their investment criteria through user interface and this automatically creates their own trading algorithms. The proposed system is composed with two parts: server intercommunicating with financial company server to send and to receive financial informations for trading, and client including user convenience-based user interface representing secondary indexes and strategies, and a part generating algorithm. The proposed system performance is proven through simulated-investment in which user sets up his investment strategy, algorithm is generated, and trading is performed based on the algorithm

VaR (value at risk), which represents the expectation of the worst loss that may occur over a period of time within a given level of confidence, is currently used by various financial institutions for the purpose of risk management. In the majority of previous studies, the probability of return has been modeled with normal distribution. Recently Chen et al. (2010) measured VaR with asymmetric Laplacian distribution. However, it is difficult to estimate the mode, the skewness, and the degree of variance that determine the shape of an asymmetric Laplacian distribution with limited data in the real-world market. In this paper, we show that the VaR estimated with (symmetric) Laplacian distribution model provides more accuracy than those with normal distribution model or asymmetric Laplacian distribution model with real world stock market data and with various statistical measures.

본 논문은 금융실명제가 기업에서 발표하는 회계학적 이익정보에 대한 주식가격의 변화에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 이는 금융실명제실시 이후에는 기업에서 창출해 내는 기업이익이 진정한 이익에 보다 더 접근을 할 것이라 예상과 채무분석가의 기업이익에 대한 예측치는 진정한 이익에 대한 예측치이므로 금융실명제 실시 이후에는 예측오차가 감소할 것이다는 일반적 예상을 검증하기 위한 것이다. 본 논문은 먼저 1992년과 1993년 12월 결산기업에 대하여 비기대이익을 계산하여 두 해에서의 차이를 분석하였고, 계산된 비기대이익과 기업이익 공시시점에서의 비정상수익율과의 관계를 회귀분석을 통하여 분석하였다. 채무분석가의 예측치로서 대우경제연구소에서 1992년과 1993년 12월에 각각 발표한 각 상장기업의 이익에 대한1992년 및 1993년의 예상치를 각각 년도의 예상기업 이익으로 사용하고 실제로 1993년과 1994년 초에 공시되는 기업이익과의 차이를 조사하였다. 비정상수익율의 계산은 시장위험조정모형과 시장조정모형을 사용하였고 일별수익율에 의하여 측정하였다. 사건 시점은 주주총회 일을 중심으로하여 여러 사건 기간을 택하여 분석을 하였다. 실증적 분석 결과를 보면, 전체표본을 대상으로한 재무분석가의 추정치에 의하여 계산된 비기대이익의 분산이 금융실명제 실시 이후가 실시 이전에 비하여 더 크게 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 금융실명제의 실시로 인하여 재무분석가의 예측이 오히려 더 부정확하게 나타난 것이라 할 수 있다. 이러한 결과는 실명제 실시에 따라서 기업이익예측에 대한 불확실성이 더 증가를 하여 기업이익 공시시점에서의 비기대이익의 측정에서의 오차가 오히려 증가하였다는 것을 알 수 있다. 그러나 전체표본을 소그룹으로 나누어서, 1부에 속한 기업들과 대형 주기업들을 대상으로한 분석에서는 이 두 소그룹에 속한 기업들이 각각 금융실명제실시 이후가 금융실명제 실시 이전보다 비기대이익의 분산이 작게 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 1부에 속한 기업들과 대형주기업들에서 는 금융실명제실시로 채무분석가들의 이익 예측치가 더 정확성을 지니게 된 것으로 해석된다. 이익반응계수의 추정에서 예상했던 바와는 반대로 금융실명제 실시 이후에 계수의 크기가 오히려 감소하였다. 소그룹으로 나누어서 분석한 결과도 마찬가지였다. 금융실명제 실시가 기업회계이익에 미친 영향은 비기대이익의 측정을 통하여 일부 가설과 일치하는 결과를 얻었고, 이익반응계수의 측정에서는 가설과 일치하는 결과를 얻지 못하였다.

The aim of this study is to utilize system trading for making investment decisions and use technical analysis and Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) to determine similar patterns in the frequency of stock data and ascertain the optimal timing for trade. The study will examine some of the most common patterns in the futures market and use DTW in terms of their frequency (10, 30, 60 minutes, and daily) to discover similar patterns. The recognized similar patterns were verified by executing trade simulation after applying specific strategies to the technical indicators. The most profitable strategies among the set of strategies applied to common patterns were again applied to the similar patterns and the results from DTW pattern recognition were examined. The outcome produced useful information on determining the optimal timing for trade by using DTW pattern recognition through system trading, and by applying distinct strategies depending on data frequency.

Distributional assumptions on equity returns play a key role in valuation theories for derivative securities. Elberlein and Keller (1995) investigated the distributional form of compound returns and found that some of standard assumptions can not be justified. Instead, Generalized Hyperbolic (GH) distribution fit the empirical returns with high accuracy. Hu and Kercheval (2007) also show that the normal distribution leads to VaR (Value at Risk) estimate that significantly underestimate the realized empirical values, while the GH distributions do not. We consider saddlepoint approximations to estimate the VaR and the ES (Expected Shortfall) which frequently encountered in finance and insurance as measures of risk management. We supposed GH distributions instead of normal ones, as underlying distribution of linear portfolios. Simulation results show the saddlepoint approximations are very accurate than normal ones.

This study proposes a novel option strategy by using characteristic of volatility reversion and rough set algorithm in options market. Until now, various research has been conducted on stock and future markets, but minimal research has been done in options market. Particularly, research on the option trading strategy using high frequency data is limited. This study consists of two purposes. The first is to enjoy a profit using volatility reversion model when volatility gap is occurred. The second is to pursue a more stable profit by filtering inaccurate entry point through rough set algorithm. Since options market is affected by various elements like underlying assets, volatility and interest rate, the point of this study is to hedge elements except volatility and enjoy the profit following the volatility gap.

The option pricing of Black와 Scholes (1973) and Merton (1973) has been widely reported to fail to reflect the time varying volatility of financial time series in many real applications. For example, Duan (1995) proposed GARCH option pricing method through Monte Carlo simulation. However, financial time series is known to follow a fat-tailed and leptokurtic probability distribution, which is not explained by Duan (1995). In this paper, in order to overcome such defects, we proposed the option pricing method based on GARCH models with normal mixture errors. According to the analysis of KOSPI200 option price data, the option pricing based on GARCH models with normal mixture errors outperformed the option pricing based on GARCH models with normal errors in the unstable period with high volatility.

This paper tests a correlation between degrees of operating leverage(DOL) and financial leverage(DFL). For an empirical analysis, this paper extracted information from financial statements of manufacturing companies listed in the Korea Stock Exchange. Data extend from 1990 to 2009. The DOL continued to increase until 1997, but decreased dramatically after the IMF financial crisis. However, the DOL has been at a higher level than companies of other countries such as USA and Japan. The DFL has been maintained at a much higher level, as expected. The empirical results indicate a positive correlation between the DOL and the DFL. To further investigate, we divide the whole sample into subgroups according to such management elements as asset size, IMF crisis. The results for sub-samples are different from those of whole sample. This indicates we need to incorporate specific managerial factors in order to correctly explain financial decision processes.
