"This dissertation develops several econometric techniques to address three issues in financial economics, namely, constructing a real estate price index, estimating structural break points, and estimating integrated variance in the presence of market microstructure noise and the corresponding microstructure noise function. Chapter 2 develops a new methodology for constructing a real estate price index that utilizes all transaction price information, encompassing both single-sales and repeat-sales. The method is less susceptible to specification error than standard hedonic methods and is not subject to the sample selection bias involved in indexes that rely only on repeat sales. The methodology employs a model design that uses a sale pairing process based on the individual building level, rather than the individual house level as is used in the repeat-sales method. The approach extends ideas from repeat-sales methodology in a way that accommodates much wider datasets. In an empirical analysis of the methodology, we fit the model to the private residential property market in Singapore between Q1 1995 and Q2 2014, covering several periods of major price fluctuation and changes in government macroprudential policy ..."--Author's abstract.

This dissertation comprises of three essays in financial econometrics. The first essay discusses the efficacy of alternative simulation models of the short term interest rate. This is done by constructing consistent specification tests that allow us to carry out a "horse-race" comparing various one, two, and three factor models (possiblely with jumps), across multiple historical sample periods. We find that the choice of model for simulating the future distribution of short rates is highly sample dependent, and structural breaks appear to be an important component to be considered. The second essay presents a model that focuses on exploring the profitability of portfolio-based trading strategies that variously combine downside risk, momentum, and mean reversion by carrying out a series of pseudo real-time trading experiments using different combination trading strategies. We find, contrary to the existing literature, that momentum effects are sensitive to value and size factors. In particular, downside risk plays an important role when portfolios are sorted based on size and value. The third essay re-examines the empirical linkage between macroeconomic variables and financial markets. Our evaluation focuses on the use of a large variety of state-of-the-art ex-ante predictive accuracy tests as well as more standard in-sample regression diagnostics. We observe substantive shifts in the dynamics of macroeconomic factor models, which have noteworthy effects on the predictive content of the factors when used to predict returns.

This dissertation consists of one essay in financial econometrics and two essays in quantitative industrial organization. The first essay studies the relationship between stock return volatility and current and prior shocks to oil price volatility. We study the behavior of aggregate stock markets as well as individual industry sectors. Our results show that lagged stock return volatility is the main determinant of current stock return volatility in aggregate markets, with oil price volatility providing no additional information that can be used to forecast stock return volatility. For individual industry sectors, we find a robust and stable prediction relationship only for the chemicals industry. Additional estimation exercises confirm the robustness of these results. The second essay uses a Bertrand-Nash price-competition framework to models a vertically integrated provider (VIP) that is a monopoly supplier of an essential input for downstream production. An input price that is "too high" can lead to inefficient foreclosure and one that is "too low" creates incentives for nonprice discrimination. The range of non-exclusionary input prices is circumscribed by the input prices generated on the basis of upper-bound and lower-bound displacement ratios. The admissible range of the ratio of downstream to upstream "price-cost" margins for the VIP is increasing in the degree of product differentiation and reduces to a single ratio in the limit as the products become perfectly homogeneous. The third essay explores the relationship between upstream input prices and downstream market exclusion under a Stackelberg quantity-competition framework. Market exclusion is a concern when input prices are "too high" and "too low" because it can result in inefficient foreclosure and sabotage, respectively. Consistent with the results obtained in the second essay, the safe harbor range of downstream to upstream "price-cost" margin ratios is decreasing in the degree of product homogeneity and approaches a single ratio in the limit as the products become perfectly homogeneous. This single margin ratio preserves equality between the VIP's wholesale and retail "price-cost" margins. A key finding for competition policy is that the bounds of non-exclusionary input prices are markedly wider under Bertrand-Nash competition than they are under Stackelberg competition. Hence, it is critical that the antitrust and regulatory authorities understand the nature of the industry competition so that rules governing permissible conduct are properly calibrated to yield efficient outcomes.

A collection of essays dealing with financial markets' imperfections, and the inability of neoclassical economics to deal with such imperfections. This book argues that financial economics, as based on the tenets of neoclassical economics, cannot answer or solve the real-life problems that people face.

Chapter 1 is the product of joint work with Ferhat Akbas and it provides a behavioral explanation for monthly negative serial correlation in stock returns. For the first time in the literature, this work reports that only low momentum stocks experience monthly negative serial correlation. Using a recently collected dataset, this finding provides the basis for a behavioral explanation for monthly negative serial correlation. Chapter 2 uses mean squared error (MSE) criterion to choose the number of instruments for generalized empirical likelihood (GEL) framework. This is a relevant problem especially in financial economics and macroeconomics where the number of instruments can be very large. For the first time in the literature, heteroskedasticity is explicitly modelled in deriving the terms in higher order MSE. Using the selection criteria makes GEL estimator more efficient under heteroskedasticity. Chapter 3 is the product of joint work with Victor Chernozhukov and Konrad Menzel. This chapter proposes new ways of inference on mean-variance sets in finance such as Hansen-Jagannathan bounds and Markowitz frontier. In particular standard set estimation methods with Hausdorff distance give very large confidence regions which are not very meaningful for testing purposes. On the other hand confidence regions based on LR-type statistic and wald type statistic provide much tighter confidence bounds. The methodology is also extended to frontiers that use conditional information efficiently.
