Bidders’ Behaviour and Theory of Share Auctions with Applications to the Colombian Primary Bond MarketCardozo, Pamela 14 January 2010 (has links)
Although most governments sell their bonds through a share auction, little is known about behaviour of bidders in these auctions. This thesis analyzes the literature
on government securities auctions, focusing primarily on structural empirical estimation.
Additionally, it examines bidders behaviour in Colombian government bond auctions during 2007, including the additional sale done after the auction.
The thesis summarizes the different structural methodologies that have been developed to determine what the best auction for a particular case is. It discusses the
advantages and disadvantages of each methodology and explores assumptions and robustness when confronted with data. To make these comparisons more straightforward,
a unified notation is introduced and several methods are applied to the same auctions,
uniform price auctions conducted by the government of Colombia. / Thesis (Ph.D, Economics) -- Queen's University, 2010-01-14 11:03:29.635

The context of dominance : a cross sectional studyShamsie, Jamal January 1992 (has links)
The persistence of dominance depends upon the capability of a firm to maintain such a position after it has been able to acquire it. Yet most of the existing research has been relatively unsuccessful in identifying specific factors that are likely to allow any firm to effectively deal with all forms of competitive challenges over an extended period of time. / As such, the goals of this research were to investigate the persistence of dominance across several different types of industry contexts. On the whole, the results suggest that differences in the persistence of dominance can be linked to the characteristics of each industry context. In large part, these differences can be attributed to the strategies that must be pursued by the dominant firms in order to maintain the specific types of advantages that can be effectively used in each of the three types of industry contexts that could be identified.

Newspaper headlines as contrarian indicators of share price performance for companies listed on the Johannesburg Stock ExchangeRamavhunga, Andisa Humbulani Arthur 07 May 2010 (has links)
Much has been written, by academics, about media coverage as being contrarian indicators i.e. media headlines have an impact on the share price performance of featured companies. The objective of this study was to investigate if this phenomenon was true for listed South African Companies. Thus the study determined if newspapers were effective contrarian indicators for companies listed in the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE). This determination was through a recognised research method and statistical analysis. The study analysed 257 Business Day headlines, featuring JSE listed companies. The study then assessed share price performance for the period 120 days before and 120 days after the headline announcement. The study found that press announcements do have an impact on the share price performance of JSE listed companies and that the impact was significantly higher than those reported in the developed capital markets. The study further determined that positive headlines lead to positive company share price performance; and that negative headlines do not necessary lead to a negative share price performance. The study also found that the impact of these press announcements is influenced by the company’s market capitalisation and sector. It was shown that companies with a large market capitalisation experienced significant impact on share price performance compared to companies with a small market capitalisation. / Dissertation (MBA)--University of Pretoria, 2010. / Gordon Institute of Business Science (GIBS) / unrestricted

Share price reaction to Financial Mail’s “Top Companies” announcementsEsterhuysen, Willem Derek 05 April 2011 (has links)
Responsible Investment considers environmental, social and corporate governance criteria. These criteria, as an investment strategy, aim to have a positive impact on society as well as maximize financial returns. The concept of Responsible Investment is becoming more prominent and important to investors, both internationally and locally, with evidence from the negative reaction of share prices to recent events such as the BP oil spill. The Johannesburg Stock Exchange, in collaboration with FTSE4Good, has developed Responsible Investment criteria. The aim of the criteria is to ensure global alignment, with regards to environmental criteria, and also ensure local relevance, with criteria that deals with issues such as black economic empowerment, skills development and HIV/Aids. This research examines the share price behaviour of companies that are recommended by analysts as ‘Top Companies’ on the basis of their compliance to set Responsible Investment criteria, with specific reference to the annual ‘Top 20 Companies’ as recommended by the Financial Mail magazine. Using event study methodology, the short- and long-term behaviour is studied for the 140 companies mentioned in the list from 2003 up until 2009. Positive, significant abnormal returns of around 2% are observed in the first 10 days following the announcement for the companies mentioned in the list for the first time. No positive abnormal returns are however observed for longer-term holding periods of up to 200 days following the announcement. The result suggests that the Financial Mail analysts’ annual recommendation is of value only to low transaction cost, short-term traders. Longer-term investors, who buy the recommended shares, generally receive returns similar to the market rate of return.
