The permanent income hypothesis in five major industrial countries: a multivariate trend-cycle decomposition test
Journal of Economics and Finance - Tập 33 - Trang 43-59 - 2008
This paper presents a new test of the permanent income hypothesis in five major industrial countries. The test first decomposes consumption and income into their long run trend (permanent) and short run cyclical (transitory) components, using the recently developed multivariate stochastic detrending approach developed by Vahid and Engle (1997), among others. This approach exploits the presence of ......
The 1986 Tax Reform Act and ex-dividend day price and volume patterns: Evidence from organized exchanges and the OTC market
Journal of Economics and Finance - - 1993
By effectively removing the differential taxation of dividends and capital gains, the 1986 Tax Reform Act provides a unique opportunity to re-examine the “tax induced clientele” explanation of ex-dividend day price behavior. The analysis indicates an increased preference for dividends and provides evidence of significant abnormal volume during the ex-dividend period, consistent with dividend induc......
The transmission of international stock market volatilities

This paper examines the spillover effects of cluster volatility between the equity markets of the U.S. and four Asia-Pacific countries in the context of two significant U.S. market crises (the financial crisis of 2007 and the threat of the U.S. government refusing to raise its “debt ceiling” and subsequently defaulting on its debt in 2011). The paper seeks to determine whether market crises in the......

Noting the analytical and empirical significance of the topic, this research revisits the theme of income convergence across the US states. The work fills several gaps in the existing literature by (a) covering the most recent period 1997–2018, (b) using the official data on real GDP per capita compiled by the US Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA), (c) explicitly comparing the convergence scenario ......
Agency costs in U.S. manufacturing: An empirical measure using X-efficiency
Journal of Economics and Finance - Tập 16 - Trang 1-10 - 1992
By adapting the concept of X-inefficiency, the deadweight cost associated with agency problems is estimated for U.S. manufacturing industry. X-inefficiency theory postulates that agent’s opportunistic behavior will lead to second-best outcomes in imperfect markets. When the methodology is applied to the 1986/87 fiscal year, thirty industries are identified as X-inefficient. The total deadweight ag......
Hedonic valuation of land protection methods: implications for cluster development
Journal of Economics and Finance - Tập 39 - Trang 782-806 - 2014
This study estimates a generalized spatial hedonic pricing model to assess how residential property values are impacted by inclusion within cluster developments and by proximity to various types of protected land. The estimated model simultaneously controls for the spatial dependence of residential housing prices and for the presence of spatial autocorrelation. The sample includes 4,008 single-fam......
The effects of income and population demographics on single-county bank performance
Journal of Economics and Finance - Tập 42 - Trang 174-190 - 2017
We investigate the role market demographics play in determining the accounting performance of banks. Specifically, we study the effect of wealth and population to determine if these market factors drive performance, or if performance is related only to bank-specific variables. Using a sample of single-county banks, we find that market demographics play an important role in determining bank perform......

First, it demonstrates that a large banking sector improves bank profitability and asset quality, which supports the hypothesis of financial development improvement. Second, financial liberalization is negatively associated with bank profitability and asse......
Inter-industry differences in layoff announcement effects for financial institutions
Journal of Economics and Finance - Tập 33 - Trang 100-110 - 2008
This study expands the examination of workforce layoffs by banks to include non-bank financial institutions and explores inter-industry differences in market reactions to layoff announcements. In examining inter-industry differences, we control for variables that influence the market’s reaction to a layoff announcement, such as firm size, the size of the layoff, the reason given for the layoff, an......
