We investigate the effectiveness of two recent regulatory policy changes on market efficiency in the Chinese A- and B-share markets. Overall, the opening of the B-share market to domestic Chinese investors and the limited opening of the A-share market to foreign investors increase market efficiency. The opening of the B-share market significantly reduces the price differential between A- and B-shares. Furthermore, there is no longer feedback in returns between the two markets in recent years. Our results provide evidence that there is no detrimental effect to market efficiency by integrating Chinese investors to international markets and foreign investors to the Chinese stock markets.

The baking industry is one of the most important parts of the Czech food processing industry. The Czech baking industry has a bigger price differential compared to other Europe Union bakers than occurs with any other industry. Therefore the Czech government has integrated plans to improve this competitive advantage.The up-to-date trends are compared with the main European bakery producers and consumers–Germany in this paper. The research is focused on the analysis of the basic factors of supply and demand in the bakery markets of both these countries.During the recent period of time there have been many researchers from the FBE MUAF in Brno, who focused on the environment in the branch, e.g. Bečvářová (2005), Černíková and Žufan (2004); Chládková and Kudová (2004), Tomšík and Chládková (2005), Syrovátka (2000), Veselská (2005). The research on trade in food is solved firstly by Presová and Tvrdoň (2005).This paper is the part of the Research proposal MSM 6215648904 being solved at the FBE MUAF in Brno.

This article establishes the concept and measure of the elasticity of product bias. It demonstrates that, for most consumers, the effect of product bias on the selection decision between similar, alternative domestic and foreign goods can be offset by manipulation of the price differential.

Enacted in 1921, the United States law on dumping in international trade was regarded at the time as a “model of draftsmanship.” Present-day technicians are content with its provisions, though they do not echo this encomium. But the reader who approaches the nine closely written pages of the law’s text for the first time is likely to find the experience rather terrifying. These nine pages can be roughly summarized as follows. The Act comes into operation when a foreign producer sells to United States importers at a price less than that which he charges purchasers in his own country, with resultant injury to United States industry. When this is the case, a dumping duty is assessed on the imports, measured by the price differential which has been found.
