Using death count, geographic location, and event type, this study identified 109 attacks between 1985 and 2015 to be analyzed against 5 market indices and 5 securities. Measuring the effects within a 10-day sample window from the time of the attack (+ or - 5 days) using average abnormal returns, standard deviation, Sharpe Ratio and the initial reactions in the market place as a percentage of total attacks, the effects on average abnormal returns on the market proxies were measured on three levels; The entire sample period from 1985 to 2015; the first half of the sample period 1985-1999; and the second half of the sample period 2000-2015. Analyzing trends in abnormal returns and standard deviation, the results of the study were inconclusive.

73	Good Game Blake, Greyory 01 January 2018 (has links) This thesis and its corresponding art installation, Lessons from Ziggy, attempts to deconstruct the variables prevalent within several complex systems, analyze their transformations, and propose a methodology for reasserting the soap box within the display pedestal. In this text, there are several key and specific examples of the transformation of various signifiers (i.e. media-bred fear’s transformation into a political tactic of surveillance, contemporary freneticism’s transformation into complacency, and community’s transformation into nationalism as a state weapon). In this essay, all of these concepts are contextualized within the exponential growth of new technologies. That is to say, all of these semiotic developments must be framed within the post-Internet sphere. platform capitalism surveillance video games social media the dromosphere Ziggy Advertising and Promotion Management American Film Studies American Literature American Material Culture American Popular Culture Art Practice Audio Arts and Acoustics Book and Paper Business Analytics Business and Corporate Communications Business Intelligence Contemporary Art Cultural History Digital Humanities Diplomatic History Ethics and Political Philosophy Fiction French and Francophone Literature French Linguistics Game Design Graphic Design Illustration Industrial and Product Design Interdisciplinary Arts and Media Labor History Management Information Systems Marketing Nonfiction Other American Studies Other Business Other Film and Media Studies Philosophy of Mind Photography Poetry Political History Public History Sculpture Social History Technology and Innovation Television Theory and Criticism Visual Studies
