A model of adaptive, market behavior generating positive returns, volatility and system risk
We describe a simple model for speculative trading based on adaptive behavior of economic agents.The adaptive behavior is expressed through a feedback mechanism for changing agents' stock-to-bond ratios, depending on the past performance of their portfolios.The stock price is set according to the demand-supply for the asset derived from the agents' target risk levels. Using the methodology of agent-based modeling we show that agents, acting endogenously and adaptively, create a persistent price bubble. The price dynamics generated by the trading process does not reveal any singularities, however the process is accompanied by growing aggregated risk that indicates increasing likelihood of a crash.

Asymmetric Tsallis distributions for modelling financial market dynamics
Financial markets are highly non-linear and non-equilibrium systems. Earlier works have suggested that the behavior of market returns can be well described within the framework of non-extensive Tsallis statistics or supe…
Tsallis Relative entropy from asymmetric distributions as a risk measure for financial portfolios
In an earlier study, we showed that Tsallis relative entropy (TRE), which is the generalization of Kullback-Leibler relative entropy (KLRE) to non-extensive systems, can be used as a possible risk measure in constructing…

Leveraging unique insights into the special education placement process through written individual psychological records, I present results from the first ever study to examine short- and long-term returns to special edu…
Risk Premia in the Bitcoin Market
Based on options and realized returns, we analyze risk premia in the Bitcoin market through the lens of the Pricing Kernel (PK). We identify that: 1) The projected PK into Bitcoin returns is W-shaped and steep in the neg…
Replication of Reference-Dependent Preferences and the Risk-Return Trade-Off in the Chinese Market
This study replicates the findings of Wang et al. (2017) on reference-dependent preferences and their impact on the risk-return trade-off in the Chinese stock market, a unique context characterized by high retail investo…
