Comovements in national stock market returns: evidence of predictability, but not cointegration

Article Abstract:

Previous research has shown that equity returns in other countries are predictable in much the same way that returns in the US are predictable. However, findings of cointegration across 16 national market indices may not be accurate. Rather, the predictability of relative returns and the existence of a winner-loser effect may indicate the presence of a common world component and two country-specific components, one permanent and one transitory, in these indices.

The life cycle of daily newspapers in the Netherlands: 1848-1997

Article Abstract:

Data from the Dutch newspaper industry from 1848 through 1997 was utilized using hazard rate models to determine the factors which influence life expectancy or product life cycle. Results showed the factors of market density, duration, quality of competition to be significant factors in determining the success of a newspaper. Analysis of the Dutch market also indicates that local conditions have evolved to a point that is not conducive to newspaper success.
