Ebook Portfolio Choice with Capital Gain Taxation and the Limited Use of Losses

Submitted by puput on Sat, 06/04/2011 - 03:53

Capital gain taxation is an important friction faced by investors when making asset allocation decisions. In this paper, we study the implications of a real world feature of most tax codes on portfolio choice with multiple stocks: that capital losses can only be used to offset current or future realized capital gains. We term this the limited use of losses (LUL). We show that this has strong implications for asset allocation and rebalancing of portfolios.

Ebook e-Health and Prostate Cancer Screening

Submitted by antoq on Tue, 03/03/2009 - 08:45

Prostate cancer is a leading cause of cancer death in men worldwide. Screening for prostate cancer aims to decrease mortality and morbidity from the disease by increasing the chances of successful treatment through early detection. Currently there is a lack of evidence to establish if screening achieves this aim. This is illustrated by the conflicting recommendations offered by medical organisations.

In the absence of evidence patients must rely on their own beliefs and guidance from doctors to make an informed decision. Patients have traditionally adopted a passive role when discussing medical issues and decisions with their doctor. However, if a patient must live with the consequences of a medical decision, then the opportunity to accept or reject the decision must be made available to the patient. This has encouraged patients and doctors to adopt a shared approach to healthcare.

Ebook Some Hypotheses on Commonality in Liquidity: New Evidence from the Chinese Stock Market

Submitted by puput on Tue, 08/31/2010 - 03:16

The concept of ‘commonality in liquidity’ has been popularized by Chordia et al. (2000) and pertains to the phenomenon of time-series movements in liquidity due to common underlying determinants across securities. Commonality refers to the proposition that an individual firm’s liquidity is at least partly determined by market-wide liquidity. Its empirical manifestation is the co-movement between variations in individual stock liquidity and variations in market and industry-wide liquidity, as found by Chordia et al. (2000).

Understanding commonality in liquidity is crucial for a number of reasons. First, a strand of the literature has documented the existence of a strong relationship between ownership structure and individual firm liquidity (Sarinet al., 2000 and Lipson, 2003; among others). Furthermore, the relationship between commonality in liquidity and ownership structure is more important because Chinese firms tend not to fully disclose material changes in their business conditions, and published statements do not always meet international accounting standards (Chan et al., 2008). Most of Chinese listed companies are state-owned enterprises controlled by local governments which prefer employing small auditors (Wang et al. 2008). Lack of quality auditing can potentially have adverse effects on ownership structure, which can result in loss of credibility particularly to outside investors (see Fan and Wong, 2002). As a result, a system change of liquidity will induce significant changes of ownership structure which can be reflected by the changes in a firm’s prices and the changes in a firm’s liquidity, such as bid-ask spread, depth and turnover rate.
