This study introduces a new model for capital markets incorporating "hold" investor stances. The model accurately predicts sudden risk events, outperforming benchmark approaches in one-step-ahead assessments.
Area of Science:
- Econometrics
- Statistical Physics
- Computational Finance
Background:
- Company-specific news causes stock price movements independent of market trends, indicating sudden risk events.
- Statistical physics concepts are increasingly applied to econometrics for modeling socioeconomic phenomena.
Purpose of the Study:
- To extend existing agent-based models by including a "hold" position alongside "buy" and "sell" stances.
- To develop a theoretical framework for modeling agent behavior in capital markets using statistical ensembles.
- To enable accurate, one-step-ahead prediction of sudden risk events on capital markets.
Main Methods:
- Developed a theoretical model using microcanonical and canonical ensembles for an ideal agent system.
- Designed a procedure to estimate model parameters from capital market time series data.
- Applied the model to a capital market example for risk event assessment.
Main Results:
- The proposed model effectively incorporates "buy," "sell," and "hold" investor stances.
- A method for estimating model parameters from empirical data was successfully designed.
- The model demonstrated strong performance in one-step-ahead prediction of sudden risk events.
Conclusions:
- The developed model is well-specified for analyzing capital market dynamics.
- The model parameters are accurately determined, leading to reliable predictions.
- The approach offers a robust framework for assessing the impact of sudden risk events.
