▼ In turbulent environments, the infused marketing function has become an essential and natural part in the firms’ new product development (NPD). Some scholars define NPD as the transformation of a market opportunity into a product as a result of the coupling of market assumptions with technological possibilities. The purpose of this thesis is to explore the role of market orientation in NPD, with the specific focus on how market orientation is carried out in NPD and how it affects NPD. This study is built on a conceptual framework and a tool, both are formed from literature. The authors use the case study to conduct this research, and one company’s (Tylö’s) data is gathered through the semi-structured interview. Some findings are obtained from analysis: Firstly, market orientation contains two approaches, one is the market-driven approach and the other is the driving-market one, and firm could choose one of them according to the new product features. Secondly, there are four areas in market orientation, for each approach, the specific content in each area is different. Thirdly, the four areas are identifying customers’ needs, collecting information, inter-functional coordination and taking action and they move on sequentially. In addition, two crucial factors-time and cost should be paid much attention in NPD.

▼ Since continuously the companies in developed country always acquire the companies in emerging country in order to cost down or diversification. Under global competition, the emerging country becomes better and better. According to KPMGâs data, the companies in emerging country acquire the developed country accelerated, especially product and natural resource are the largest goal; in the other hands, the multinational acquisitions are going down for two years. The amount of the company in emerging
market acquires the company in developed country is 47 percentage of the amount the company in developed
market acquires the company in emerging country. Itâs the highest statistic in KPMG since 2003.
The study try to understand the strategy which the company in emerging
market acquires the company in developed country as follows, what drove the decision to â go globalâ, how did the company strike the balance between using foreign country management teams, and what is the challenge? How did the company accomplish integration and leverage synergies with overseas business? What advice would you give other emerging
market companies on how to be successful in developed markets?
The result show: the emerging
market is seek to develop brand to international brand, avoid trade tax and get the core skill from oversea enterprise. Non-traditional buyer should accept the acquired company totally. In the beginning, the leader of oversea management team should be the executive officer from the acquired company to keep the loyal customers and reduce the rate of key men. To use the double brand strategy, the loyal customer could feel the innovation of R&D and set up the headquarter in oversea to let the customer feel the brand is new

▼ The importance of the twin objectives of
market quality (
market efficiency and
market integrity) as facilitators of
market confidence is a fundamental condition for the success and continued use of a trading venue. Changes to
market design are intended to improve
market quality. Thus, in the wake of the European regulatory change MiFID, the inability to compare and contrast newly competing markets to the
market fundamental,
Market Quality is of concern. This dissertation addresses this deficit by defining, measuring and analysing
market quality in a European equities context. We assess
market efficiency via spreads, price impact and price discovery, amongst the direct and indirect competitors of NYSE Euronext Paris, our case
market. We reveal that efficiency has improved in the last decade across all stock deciles, with index stocks the most efficient. We as only a few documented studies, gauge the extent to which
market integrity is upheld in a marketplace enabling the assessment of
market quality in its entirety. In developing proxies for insider trading (information leakage) and
market manipulation (dislocation of the closing prices), we reveal that differences in
market design play a pertinent role in managing and preventing prohibited trading practices. With a strong focus on price discovery, for the first time this dissertation assesses the entrance of competition to both the lit (transparent) and opaque markets. We find that the introduction of competition enhanced efficiency and integrated financial markets despite the reduction in transparency. We provide insight into new trading participants, High Frequency Traders, and their role in price discovery. In discussing opacity we identify the concerns of trading participants and expose Dark Pools as the markets response to reduced opaque uncertainty. Overall this dissertation emphasises the importance of
market design and how it impacts
market quality. We express how the introduction of competition directed financial markets from being monopolistic companies, to innovative technology incubators with strong investor awareness; a means to maintain
market share and achieve needed profits. Importantly, the proxies developed are portable across markets. Their application will aid the decision making process of policy-makers, and benefit
market participants and regulators in assessing the quality of the financial markets.

▼ This dissertation examines the impact of a segmented labor market on aggregate dynamics and discusses optimal monetary policy. The first chapter investigates whether differentials in labor market variables in segmented labor markets have an aggregate effect. I find a mechanism by which a segmented labor market model generates stickier aggregate nominal wages and thus more volatile output, employment ratio and unemployment rate. In the second chapter, I estimate the extended version of the model using a typical Bayesian estimation method in which the model incorporates several features that are common in medium-scale New Keynesian DSGE Models. The estimation results confirm the results obtained by the calibrated model of the first chapter. In particular, the estimates for the labor supply and demand elasticity of low-skilled workers are greater than those of high-skilled workers. In the third chapter, I discuss an optimal monetary policy, taking into account income inequality. The model shows that a tight monetary policy leads to an increase in income inequality. This increase in inequality induces stickier aggregate nominal wages. I also find that the income inequality poses a policy trade-off with traditional objectives. A quantitative analysis shows that a monetary policy that concerned aggregate variables only causes a larger welfare loss after idiosyncratic productivity shocks.

▼ The dissertation consists of three essays on biofuel's and fossil fuel's stochastic prices focusing on the U.S. corn-based fuel-ethanol
market. The research objectives include investigating competitive structures in the alternative fuels
market, selecting dynamic efficient portfolios based on policy preferences, and revealing prices and price volatilities relationships among energy and agricultural markets.
The first essay, published in Agricultural Economics, employs a structural vector autoregression (SVAR) model of the ethanol fuel
market to test the limit-pricing hypothesis that may explain the lack of ethanol entry into the fuel-additives
market. The results support the hypothesis of limit- pricing behavior on the part of MTBE (methyl tertiary butyl ether) refiners, and suggest that the U.S. corn-based ethanol industry is vulnerable to limit-price competition, which could recur. Without federal support, U.S. ethanol refiners may find it difficult to compete with cheaper sugar-cane-refined ethanol, chiefly from Brazil.
The second essay, published in American Journal of Agricultural Economics, builds dynamic fuel portfolios yielding diversification among petroleum gasoline, U.S. fuel ethanol, and Brazilian ethanol by employing a multivariate generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedascity (MGARCH) model. Results indicate that if the U.S. develops a comprehensive auto fuel policy, gasoline price fluctuations can be decreased with a corresponding reduction in vehicle environmental costs. Results led to the discovery that shifting policies toward encouraging the use of biofuels (ethanol), fuel-price volatility can be reduced with an associated overall higher gasoline price. When accounting for vehicle environmental costs (local air quality, congestion, and accidents), this higher gasoline price may be socially desirable.
The third essay, submitted for publication, investigates long-run equilibrium and short-run dynamic relations between U.S. energy (oil, gasoline, and ethanol) prices and U.S. agricultural commodity (corn and soybeans) prices, as well as price volatilities relations among these markets using vector error correction models (VECM) and MGARCH models. Results indicate there is no long-run equilibrium (cointegrating) relationship between energy prices and agricultural commodity prices. However, short-run price temporal causalities between energy prices and agricultural commodity prices are found using a VECM model. In terms of price volatilities, results indicate that agricultural commodity price volatilities influence energy price volatilities.

▼ The study analyzes some of the defining characteristics of conservation subdivisions in an attempt to derive the marginal implicit prices and, therefore, price effects on residential single family houses of those characteristics. The hedonic property valuation method with log-log functional form is used based on data obtained from Chatham County, Georgia residential housing
market. Variables featuring percentage of open space and percentage of impervious surface at subdivision level are of particular interest, since they constitute defining elements of conservation subdivision. Other variables of environmental nature including distance to hydrological objects such as marshes and rivers and having access to water bodies and/or nice view are also of major importance to the study. Results indicate that the availability of an open space within the subdivision has significant influence on houses prices within that subdivision.

▼ The housing
market plays a significant role in shaping the economic and social well-being of U.S. households. It helps spur U.S. economic growth when house prices rise, and drags the economic growth when house prices drop. In this dissertation, an analysis is conducted to project the direction of the U.S. housing
market and to discover how it interacts with economic fundamentals. New pieces of information are found, which are deemed to facilitate decision making for both policy makers and investors.
In the first part of the dissertation, the groupings of U.S. housing markets are studied using cluster and discriminant analysis. Three clusters are found, which are located in the central, the east coast, and the west coast of US. There are no price signals transmitted among these housing
market clusters, nor within each cluster. Thus, the communication of information in the housing
market is through the process of utility convergence of marginal residents, and no price convergence across regions is found.
Next, the impact of credit constraint on the house prices is examined with the stochastic components of the price series being considered. Both a simulation technique and a DAG approach are employed. The resulting causal pattern shows that credit constraints affect the house prices directly and positively. Moreover, credit constraints work as an intermediary, passing the influence of the house investor, household income, and user cost onto house prices, which suggests that the credit relaxation policy should be carried out with caution when house inventory and household income send inconsistent signals.
Last, the model selection for house price analysis is discussed from the perspective of large-scale models???dynamic factor (DFM) model and large-scale Bayesian VAR (LBVAR) model. The LBVAR models are found to have superior performance compared to the DFM model throughout the prediction period. Also, it is found that the combined forecasts do not necessarily outperform individual forecasts. Even though independent information from different individual models improves the forecast accuracy, the benefit gained from marginal information is offset by the larger error brought by such combination.

▼ Given China’s move away from collective agriculture,
the industrialization of the countryside, the rise of private
sectors, and the increase of migration, there has been a
diversification of family work patterns and some peasants have left
the family farm, entered the wage sector or started to run private
businesses. This project asks: who is employed in nonagricultural
employment? The quantitative part of the research uses the
cross-sectional Chinese General Social Survey (CGSS) and the
longitudinal China Health and Nutrition Survey (CHNS) datasets to
estimate individual-level and couple-level employment patterns. The
results support the positive effect of education on nonagricultural
employment. The models suggest that women’s employment is more
responsive to the presence of grandparents and young children in
the household, but there is an increasing tendency that the husband
and the wife move into nonagricultural sectors together, despite
little increase of families in which women lead the transition into
nonagricultural employment. The qualitative part of the research
further investigates the missing contexts for employment patterns
drawing on in-depth interviews from four villages. Their unique
developmental pathways shape employment patterns in three aspects:
the relationship between agriculture and nonagricultural sectors,
the relationship between local-based and migration-based economy,
and the structure of career ladders and the means of job mobility.
As a result, family strategies vary from the safety-first logic of
sticking to the farming sector, the diversification or multitasking
strategies to spread risks, the family cooperation or sacrifice
strategies, to the tendencies of moving for opportunity structures
independently. Via these multiple ways, women may benefit from new
economic opportunities with or without breaking the traditional
expectations, but new forms of constraints have emerged due to the
combination of deregulated markets and under-reform social
institutions.

▼ Marketing without price information is intangible. Ethiopia Commodity Exchange has
been striving to disseminate
market information for buyers and sellers for the last two
years. The study embodied questions aimed at assessing the effectiveness of the media
channels used for
market information by Ethiopia Commodity Exchange. In order to
seek answers to these questions both quantitative and qualitative research
methodologies were employed through questionnaire and in-depth interview. These
data were then analyzed thematically in order to sieve out the information that did more
appropriately tally with the inquiry at hand. It was found out that television, mobile
phone and the radio medium constituted the most widely used array of media genres.
All the same, lack of clarity, precision, and consistency of messages impeded the extent
to which the customers comprehended the messages. Moreover, literacy levels and
language issues were also among factors that did affect the effectiveness of messages
communicated because of the fact that farmers were not educated and could not fathom
messages presented in Amharic as much as they should. Also, the use of new media
such as the Internet which could be thought of extremely complicated did not prove to
be effective as it needs a higher level of literacy as well as basic computer skills. While
the use of multi-channel communication is a commendable endeavor, factors pointed
out above need to be considered to attain higher level of effectiveness such as by toning
down the messages in a way that fits the level of these customers.

▼ This study examines the development of the Kenyan capital market and it’s
relationship with economic growth and development between 1990 and 2011. Data
was collected from Capital Markets Authority reports, Nairobi Securities Exchange
Review Reports, Central Bank of Kenya Statistical Bulletin and ordinary least square
method of regression was used with aid of STATA version 10 software packages to
analyze the data.
This study aims to examine the roles and challenges of capital markets, with special
focus on Kenya. The study draws on economic theory to assess the potential role of
capital markets, in terms of consumption, investment and economic growth; more
specific roles with respect to corporate financing, asset pricing and corporate
governance are highlighted. It is argued that the macroeconomic policy environment
is critical in influencing the performance of capital markets and hence the extent to
which the market may be able to play its role. The status quo of the markets is
analyzed in terms of stock market capitalization, number of companies listed,
liquidity, returns and volatility of the capital markets in Kenya. The main institutional
challenges are considered in the light of market microstructure evidence on how the
frontier capital markets in Kenya are responding to revitalization and reforms. The
study concludes by pointing out some unresolved issues, undiscovered territory and
the future of capital markets in Kenya.
The study focused on data from the Nairobi Securities Exchange and Kenya National
Bureau of Statistics. Time series data on stock market turnover, stock market size and
bond market size were obtained from period 1992-2011. The research used quarterly
data on economic growth indicators as provided by The Government of Kenya
ix
through the Kenya Bureau of Statistics as well as World Bank development
indicators.
This study will utilize the value traded ratio in the capital markets, which is a measure
which equals the total value of bonds and shares traded divided by the Gross domestic
product of the economy. This indicator of growth indicates the liquidity observed in
the capital market. In this research this ratio will be used to compliment the market
capitalization rate as a measure of growth of the capital market.
STATA version10 was used to analyze the data. Tests of significance included the R2
tests as well as F-statistics which tested the significance of the relationship between
the five independent variables of capital market deepening and the one dependent
variable of economic growth.
The results showed that capital market indices have impacted significantly on the
GDP. The study recommends among others that government should put up measures
to build up investors’ confidence in the capital market by fair transactions, increase
investments instruments in the market and provide other basic infrastructures to boost
investor participation in the bourse.

▼ There are several theories that have been advanced to explain why companies issue
profit warning announcements. A major reason advanced as motivation for issuing of
profit warnings is the avoidance of shareholder lawsuits over failure by management
to provide timely negative information. Other reasons include need to comply with
regulatory requirements besides being used as a strategy by management to affect the
overall market reaction to earnings news based on the assumed informational value.
A mandated disclosure requirement was issued by the Capital Markets Authority
(CMA) through legal notice no 60 of May 2002 stipulating that, an issuer shall
disclose all material information and make a public announcement of any profit
warning, where there is a material discrepancy between the projected earnings for the
current financial year and the level of earnings in the previous financial year.
This paper examined the information content of profit warning announcements at the
Nairobi Stock Exchange. This was achieved by studying fourteen companies that had
issued profit warning between the periods 2002 to 2010.The study made use of the
stock returns and market returns data to determine whether profit warning
announcement elicit any reaction in the Kenyan stock market. The study made use of
daily adjusted prices for sample stocks for the event window of 31 days, consisting of
15 days before and 15 days after the profit warning announcement. The event study
methodology was employed in the determination of the effects of the profit warning
announcement. Abnormal returns were calculated by use of the market model and tests
are conducted to test the significance.
The study found out that the Kenyan Stock market reacts negatively to profit warning
announcements as shown by a general decline in mean abnormal returns around the
profit warning announcement period. This is consistent with the hypothesis that profit
warnings have information content which is associated with a negative revaluation of
the firm. The study equally found out that there are negative abnormal returns that are
statistically significant at 5% level, around the profit warning announcement date.
There is therefore evidence of investor reaction before and after the profit warning
announcement.

▼ The aim of this research project is to discuss the
information flow between managers, analysts and investors in the
financial markets. It examines the official information releases
such as quarterly earnings announcements, unofficial flows of
information between managers and analysts, and uncertain
information as interpretation of managers' actions, so-called
"signals", used by analysts and investors. The agency problem
created by informational inequality of the
market participants
creates numerous opportunities for manipulations. Managers may not
only withhold or misinterpret the information, but they are also
able to exercise the pressure on third-parties. Financial analysts
are not completely independent of company executives: they need to
co-operate with managers to get an access to the information and
their employers prefer to keep good relationships with the
potential clients for investment banking deals. As a result the
investors constantly face the challenge how to evaluate the
trustworthiness of external information and how to extract the
maximum from the news announced. The two first chapters of this
thesis discuss particular potential ways to address this challenge.
Chapter 1 adds to the existing literature on analysts' accuracy and
conflicts of interests of informational intermediaries in financial
markets by studying the problem of trustworthiness of news produced
by sell-side analysts. I investigate whether the analysts who are
first to switch from positive to negative recommendation about a
company are trustworthy. Is it a signal of independence and
professionalism or a warning signal of lack of connections with the
firm? I find that these analysts have limited access to
management-provided information and therefore are not reliable news
bringers. Chapter 2 investigates the abilities of textual analysis
of earnings announcement conference calls to provide analysts and
investors with valuable incremental information beyond the facts
stated by managers. It studies how the negativity of manager's word
choice, degree of uncertainty in his speech and other textual clues
may help to predict the future earnings and likelihood of financial
distress. The agency problem hits not only investors, but the
managers as well. As the investors aware of potential conflict of
interest suspiciously scrutinize any executive's action, the latter
lose the flexibility for the actions. As an example, an executive
may abstain from rebalancing his portfolio to avoid providing
negative signals to the markets by the sale of company's shares.
The third chapter examines the potential to attenuate
market
reaction to the negative signals. I test whether the companies with
more timely and extensive coverage are less constrained by
"signaling" problem - losses in value caused by the investors'
reaction on managers' actions.

▼ In this research, we investigate the dynamics of firms' segment selection, in which segments a firm decides to enter and compete, and in which segments a firm decides to exit, from a competitive perspective. Specifically, we examine how firms make segment selection by simultaneously considering seemingly contradictory effects: the segment competitive condition predicts that firms avoid competition and imitation effects that influence firms to imitate each other and to cluster together. To investigate this, we observed positional moves of firms operating in the U.S. automobile industry between 1950 and 1993 (annual panel data) with around 11,000 items of complete observations with an unbalanced time series cross sectional panel. The data recorded 723 segment entries and 627 segment exits. A discrete time event history analysis with time-varying independent variables was employed to estimate the effects of the independent variables on the probability of a company conducting segment entry or exit in a specific segment. The results suggest that although firms tend to avoid their competitors, the fear of losing market opportunity makes firms follow and imitate each other, and thus mitigate their effort to reduce the competition.

▼ South African agriculture experienced rapid deregulation
during the 1990s as the one channel marketing boards were
dismantled. For the grains industry this meant the rapid
development of a derivatives
market (SAFEX). Derivative markets are
surely the most intriguing and complex financial markets with the
most misunderstood and riskiest instruments of all financial
markets. Their complexity also caused its fair share of problems
within the South African scenario with the inception of SAFEX in
1996/97. Not only is this type of
market complex but it also
creates huge fluctuations in the portfolio value of a derivatives
linked portfolio. It is precisely this type of fluctuations and
exposure that can be controlled and managed to the preferred level
of risk by the correct and responsible application of these
instruments. The successful application of these instruments
depends greatly on the fact that the underlying
market should be an
efficient
market which will then in turn allow for cost effective
pricing of these instruments and ultimately lead to successful
product structuring. The South African agricultural derivatives
market was tested for efficiency by using a co-integration analysis
which proved
market efficiency. Once
market efficiency was
established it allowed for the structuring of marketing portfolios
which ultimately resulted in a rule of thumb marketing strategy for
maize producers. The strategy required the maize producer to fix a
price during planting period for delivery in July the following
year. In order for the producer to benefit from any potential
upside during the season between price fixing and delivery the
producer should buy a call option with an expiry date of the month
of March following planting. This will save him at least four
months worth of time value on the option premium. This study also
acknowledged the fact that the derivatives
market in South Africa
is still in its fledgling phase and realises the vast potential for
risk reduction through radical innovation by creating and mixing
the basic positions of derivatives. This study illustrates by way
of examples a few approaches in structured products. In an attempt
to achieve successful product development the study applied
portfolio theory as a means to quantify risk by using mean return
and portfolio variance parameters. It addressed the more obvious
price risk situation which is faced by all grain producers by
developing a rule of thumb marketing strategy for farmers. The more
complex situation of emerging agriculture was also considered where
the objective was to enable a small scale producer to benefit from
the risk reduction potential of these instruments. At the same time
it would also allow them to access production credit without a
traditional balance sheet while allowing the financier to be ring
fenced from the risk of price fluctuation on the clients profit
profile. A more adventures approach was followed for the dairy
industry by creating a proxy price for milk based on the maize
price of SAFEX in an attempt to encourage an…

▼ The South African interest rate
market has mainly been
focused on vanilla interest rate products and hence can be seen as
underdeveloped in this regard when compared, for instance, to the
associated equity
market.
Market participants subscribe this aspect
to a lack of demand and sophistication of investors within the
market. This is, however, expected to change given the influx of
international banks into the South African
market over the past
couple of years. The current
market methodology, for the pricing of
vanilla interest rate options in the South African
market, is the
standard Black model with some mechanism to incorporate interest
rate smiles. This mechanism is typically in the form of the SABR
model. The most signi cant drawback of this approach is the fact
that it models each forward rate in isolation. Hence, there is no
way to incorporate the joint dynamics between different forward
rates and consequently cannot be used for the pricing of exotic
interest rate options. In anticipation of these new
market
developments, we explore the possibility of calibrating the LIBOR
market model to the South African
market. This dissertation follows
a bottom up approach and hence considers all aspects associated
with such an implementation. The work mainly focuses on the
calibration to at-the-money interest rate options. A possible
extension to the SABR model, while remaining within the LMM
framework, is considered in the final chapter.

▼ In this thesis, the problems of forecasting the
market clearing price (MCP) in
California electricity markets and the optimizing bidding strategies of a generator owner
are studied. The MCP forecasting helps producers and consumers of electric power to
prepare their bidding strategies, and, consequently to maximize their profits. MCP
prediction is a difficult task since bidding strategies used by
market participants are
complicated and there are many uncertainties that interact with one another.
Nevertheless, bidding strategies can be optimized based on the forecasted MCP. In this
thesis, the autoregressive with exogenous variable (ARX) technique is used to forecast
the hourly MCPs. The MCP forecasts are modeled using current and lagged values of
hourly electricity consumption, current and lagged values of the hourly MCP, hourly
natural gas prices, and hourly energy produced from renewable sources. Optimal lag
lengths are chosen based on the lowest AIC, the highest adjusted R2, and the lowest
mean absolute percentage error (MAPE). The forecasted MCPs are then used tooptimize bidding strategies of a generator owner to maximize profits. The methods and
techniques used in this thesis are able to forecast future electricity prices in California as
well as those obtained by other researchers, but use only using publicly available, and
not proprietary, data sources.

▼ Debt markets attract more investors has it is a
type of investment destination which ensures a confirmed return
with moderate risk along with the capital security. Preference of
the investor towards the selection of the investment is being
influenced by the various factors such as their attitude towards
the risk taking, expectations towards returns and capital growth,
knowledge about the investment alternatives etc,. This research
study examines the impact of selected variables towards the
investment decision of the debt market investors. Literatures
relating to the debt market investments are collected and they are
thoroughly reviewed. Based on the review of literature certain
research gaps are identified, which formed the basis for the
formulation of the objectives for this research study. Both primary
data source and secondary data source were applied for this
research study. After conducting a detailed pilot study, a well
structured questionnaire was formulated and for which reliability
was tested by applying cronbach alpha method. A sample of debt
market investors in Chennai is selected and their opinion about the
debt market investments is collected by using the finalized
questionnaire. Then these data is being processed by the
application of certain statistical tools from which inferences are
derived. These inferences are consolidated to arrive the conclusion
for this research study. This research study also highlights the
directions for the future research in the debt market
investments.

▼ This thesis identifies the effects of international trade and immigration on local labor and housing markets. Housing not only relates to individual welfare, but also affects the performances of local industries, such as construction, real estate, and mortgage financial service industries. Therefore, understanding the effects of international trade and immigration on housing is essential for governments to guide local development, for housing related industries to serve local economy, and for individuals to plan housing mortgage.
Chapter 1, "The Effects of Imports on Local Labor
Market: A Decomposition", uses OECD STAN Bilateral Trade Database by Industry and End-use category to study the effects of import on U.S. local labor
market outcomes. The results are comparable to Autor, Dorn, and Hanson (2013), and confirm that total import reduces local wages and employment rates more in more exposed areas. Since OECD also separates import volumes by their end-use categories, I could separately examine the effects of intermediate goods import and final goods import on local labor
market. The decomposition exercise indicates intermediate import is the driving force of the negative effects of total import on non-manufacturing industries.
Chapter 2, "The Dynamic Effect of Imports on U.S. Local Jobs and Housing", highlights the link between import shocks and local housing price differentiation. In this chapter, I perform theoretical and empirical analyses to examine the dynamic effects of intermediate goods import on labor and housing markets across U.S. locations. I separate local industries into tradable and non-tradable sectors and build a two-sector spatial equilibrium model, where local housing and labor markets interact. Consistent with the model, I find that intermediate import reduces rents, housing prices, the employments and wages of both tradable and non-tradable sectors. The mechanism identified is that intermediate import first reduces the local labor demands of the two industry sectors which lead to a local wage decline. The decrease in local wage is followed by a reduction in local rent and housing price. Declining housing price and rent further reduce the local non-tradable labor demand because the non-tradable sector is tightly related with housing.
Chapter 3, "The Impacts of Immigration on Local Rent", separates immigrants according to their races and education levels, and explore their heterogeneous effects on metropolitan rental prices. Since the majority of new immigrants rent houses, the effect of immigration on rental prices is important for making immigration policies. The empirical results show that low-educated Hispanic immigrants lower rents, whereas other immigrants tend to live in places where local rents are already high. Further investigation suggests low educated Hispanic immigrants drive natives from renting a house to purchase a house, and thus have negative effect on local rents.

▼ South African agriculture experienced rapid
deregulation during the 1990s as the one channel marketing boards
were dismantled. For the grains industry this meant the rapid
development of a derivatives
market (SAFEX). Derivative markets are
surely the most intriguing and complex financial markets with the
most misunderstood and riskiest instruments of all financial
markets. Their complexity also caused its fair share of problems
within the South African scenario with the inception of SAFEX in
1996/97. Not only is this type of
market complex but it also
creates huge fluctuations in the portfolio value of a derivatives
linked portfolio. It is precisely this type of fluctuations and
exposure that can be controlled and managed to the preferred level
of risk by the correct and responsible application of these
instruments. The successful application of these instruments
depends greatly on the fact that the underlying
market should be an
efficient
market which will then in turn allow for cost effective
pricing of these instruments and ultimately lead to successful
product structuring. The South African agricultural derivatives
market was tested for efficiency by using a co-integration analysis
which proved
market efficiency. Once
market efficiency was
established it allowed for the structuring of marketing portfolios
which ultimately resulted in a rule of thumb marketing strategy for
maize producers. The strategy required the maize producer to fix a
price during planting period for delivery in July the following
year. In order for the producer to benefit from any potential
upside during the season between price fixing and delivery the
producer should buy a call option with an expiry date of the month
of March following planting. This will save him at least four
months worth of time value on the option premium. This study also
acknowledged the fact that the derivatives
market in South Africa
is still in its fledgling phase and realises the vast potential for
risk reduction through radical innovation by creating and mixing
the basic positions of derivatives. This study illustrates by way
of examples a few approaches in structured products. In an attempt
to achieve successful product development the study applied
portfolio theory as a means to quantify risk by using mean return
and portfolio variance parameters. It addressed the more obvious
price risk situation which is faced by all grain producers by
developing a rule of thumb marketing strategy for farmers. The more
complex situation of emerging agriculture was also considered where
the objective was to enable a small scale producer to benefit from
the risk reduction potential of these instruments. At the same time
it would also allow them to access production credit without a
traditional balance sheet while allowing the financier to be ring
fenced from the risk of price fluctuation on the clients profit
profile. A more adventures approach was followed for the dairy
industry by creating a proxy price for milk based on the maize
price of SAFEX in an attempt to encourage an…

▼ This study investigated the participation of women and men in the Community Market
Conservation Programme (COMACO) in the Luangwa Valley region. The purpose of
the study was to assess the extent to which women and men participated in COMACO.
The study was conducted in Mfuwe in Mambwe District in Eastern Province from August to October, 2008. In order to collect both qualitative and quantitative data,
questionnaires and focus group discussions were used. A total number of 150
respondents, 75 males and 75 females drawn from Mkhanya and Nsefu chiefdoms provided information for the study. 100 of the respondents, 50 males and 50 females
responded to questionnaires. 50 respondents, 25 males and 25 females participated in
five focus group discussions of which 3 were, of mixed sex and 2 were single sex
discussions. The study findings revealed that both women and men participated in production, marketing and decision making in the programme. In general, there was rather a gender balance with regards to access to land, access to ready markets, access to foodstuffs,crop diversification and both women and men obtained the same prices for the produce they sold.However, the study established gender inequalities in various aspects of the programme.For instance, more men than women dominated in the programme's decision making positions. The entire producer group chairpersons were men. Men also dominated in the positions of vice chairperson and secretary. On the contrary, more women than men occupied positions of treasurer and ordinary members. At COMACO's Community Trading Center, there were more women employed than men. However, women were
not among the workers who received payments for specialized duties. In training, more
women than men received improved farming techniques.The participation of women and men in the programme was hindered by socio-economic and cultural factors. Major factors that hindered women's participation in the
programme included: cinamwali (female initiation rites), difficulties in crossing the Msandire and Lupande rivers, poor timing of the meetings and caring for the sick. On
the other hand, factors that hindered men from participating in the programme included: lack of satisfactory technical knowledge from COMACO and hunting of wild animals. Both women and men reported factors that hindered their participation in the programme included lack of access to credit such as loans, poor transport infrastructure, low prices for the produce and lack of agricultural information.
It was recommended that there is need for COMACO to educate both women and men
on gender issues in order to bring about change in the community as a whole. The
organization should deal with gender inequalities in all the section of the programme. In employment, all key positions should be shared equally between women and men. This will help the organization in monitoring the programme from a gender perspective.Gender equity in the programme must be mainstreamed. This integration of gender will guide the…

▼ This dissertation tackles the concept of
market efficiency from three distinct topics in applied economics, from microfinance, to agriculture commodity
market, and further to
market microstructure of the most advanced economy. The first essay, entitled "
Market Efficiency and Price Discovery Among Leading Rice Exporting Countries", focuses on the issue of rice
market efficiency. The study establishes, under Johansen's procedure, that there are long-run price co-movements existing among the three major rice-exporting countries, and within the United States domestic markets, the long-run efficient linkage between spot and future prices of rough rice, as Chicago Board of Trade rough rice futures converge to United States Department of Agriculture rough rice prices in a cash
market. Regarding the efficiency among the export
market prices, results show that the hypothesis of
market efficiency are rejected in two of the three pairs, namely Thai-Vietnam and ThaiUS(Arkansas). The Gonzalo & Granger (1995) decomposition method finds that the Thai and United States rice are dominant in the price discovery process. Within the United States domestic markets, the dominant is the futures
market followed by the cash
market of the rough rice and then the milled rice export price. The second essay, entitled "Determinants for Formal Credit and Informal Credit Access: The Case of Thai Farm Households", examines determinants for Thai agricultural households' participation in formal and its informal parallel credit markets. The study follows Heckman's two-stage selection model (1979) approach to determine the informal loan participation of Thai agricultural households. Results reveal that households tend to 'stick' to the credit
market in which they were previously engaged. This finding reinforces the vicious cycle which makes it more difficult for farmers to get out of debt. Secondly, the study finds that wealthier households are less likely to access credit, and are more likely to participate in formal credits than their less wealthy peers. Results also show less probability of credit access between May and December coinciding with the planting and harvesting season accentuating the nature of loans as working-capital rather than consumption loans. Finally, the study discovers that households with owned farmland are more likely to participate in the formal credit
market, while households with rented farmland are more likely to participate in the informal credit
market stressing the use of owned land as collateral to participate in the former. The final essay, entitled "On the Challenge of Testing Weak-Form
Market Efficiency using High Frequency Data", explores the issue of efficiency in microstructure of the Exchange-Traded-Fund (ETF). This essay shows that the profitability of a simple technical trading strategy hinges heavily on the way the Trades And Quotes (TAQ) dataset is filtered for mistakes and outliers. This paper uses ultra-high-frequency TAQ data that cover the time-span since the inception of the S&P 500 ETF from…

▼ Stocks represent ownership in a corporation or a company in finance. They are sometimes referred to as equities or shares. The converging place of the buying and selling of stocks is what is referred to as a Stock Market/Exchange. The main objective for the study was to determine how inflation impacts the stock market performance in Ghana to help companies and individuals make informed decisions when there are changes in inflation rate. A quantitative approach of data analysis was employed to analyse secondary data obtained covering a 25-year period for the study. Three models were fitted between inflation and three different measures of stock markets performance: percentage change in the composite index, market capitalization-to-GDP ratio, and market turnover ratio. Descriptive statistics from 1994 to 2006 revealed the highest and lowest inflation figures to be 59.32% and 11.68% respectively with a mean inflation of 24.94%. This compared unfavourably to inflationary figures from the period 2007 to 2018 with 17.46%, 6.70% and 12.15% as the highest, minimum and average inflationary figures respectively. The study also brought to bare that in a high inflationary period, 1994 to 2006, there was a negative correlation between the stock market indicators and inflation. This indicates that stock market was not a good hedge against inflation during the period under consideration. In the subsequent period, 2007 to 2018 which was a low inflationary period, there was a positive relationship between inflation and the stock market indicators. The study recommends that the central bank maintains inflation at low levels. Thus, inflation rates must be kept significantly low so that they do not erode the value of returns investors earn in the market. Also, the GSE and the Securities and Exchange Commission should intensify public insight and education of equity investments and transactions to attract more listings on the Exchange and more opportunities for trading. This will directly lead to an increase in market capitalisation.

▼ Free
market enterprise embodies values of independent thinking and self-reliance, which are antithetical to the North Korean regime’s ideological values inherent to Marxist-Leninism. However, in recent years, the Kim Jong-un regime has demonstrated more tolerance and near acceptance of the grassroots
market trends that became more prominent after the great Arduous March famines of the 1990’s. Enabling the private
market economy may seem counterintuitive for the regime’s effort to re-consolidate its influence as private markets have increased in commercial value that undermines the value of the regime’s formal economy as well as undercutting the regime’s influence. Additionally, the North Korean regime also confronts the decay of its influence and former tools of authoritarian control as a result of the emerging private
market economy. In this paper, I argue that the Kim Jong-Un regime enables private
market activity to ameliorate the long-term challenges of the regime’s influence and re-establish its control. As the vivid memory of a failed reform to suppress markets under his predecessor Kim Jong-il demonstrated that disrupting the private
market economy could elicit grassroots upheaval, the Kim Jong-un regime had to take a different approach. Kim’s regime in turn risk further deteriorating its influence by disrupting
market activity. The Kim regime therefore has accepted the grassroots
market-level trends. In exchange for this ideological compromise, expert analysis of recent evidence in
market trends, size, and activity demonstrate that the regime now exercises direct control to extort
market funds as well as restrict size and influence.

▼ This paper examines the weak and semi-strong form of the efficient market hypothesis in the Namibian foreign exchange market using sample data from the period January 1993 to December 2011. The study uses monthly nominal spot exchange rates for the British Pound (GBP), the United States Dollar (USD) and the European Currency Unit (EURO). The weak form is examined using the unit root tests, namely: the Augmented Dickey Fuller (ADF), the Philips-Perron (PP) and the Kwiatkowski-Phillips-Schmidt-Shin (KPSS); while the semi-strong form is tested using the Johansen Co-integration Test, Granger Causality Test and the Variance Decomposition Analysis. The results indicate that the variables are stationary at first differencing, implying that the Namibian foreign exchange market is informational efficient, that is, the exchange rates exhibit random walks and are consistent with the weak form of the Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH). In other words, past exchange rates cannot be used to predict future exchange rates. In addition, the results also show that one currency cannot, to a certain degree, be used to predict another, which implies that the Namibian foreign exchange market is consistent with the semi-strong form EMH. These results are quite interesting, especially for a small open Sub-Saharan African economy such as Namibia‟s. Such countries are often associated with shallow and underdeveloped financial markets typified by absence of forward markets, and low levels of foreign exchange reserves. Moreover, these results have important implications for government policy makers and market participants in the foreign exchange market of Namibia. An efficient market needs minimal intervention given that its participants cannot make abnormal gains from foreign exchange transactions.
