The Impact

This paper uses daily data to investigate the behavior of institutional investors in Taiwan?s stock market. We adopted TGARCH and EGARCH models to test various news. We found that, for the entire sample, a significant clustering phenomenon exists in the investment behavior of three institutional investors, and the impact due to a change of news content shows significant asymmetry and leverage effects. That is, the impact of bad news from the market is stronger than that of good news. In addition, an asymmetric phenomenon can also be seen for the international news aspect as responded to by foreign institutional investors. This phenomenon is more significant than those of the dealers and institutional trust investors. Moreover, the asymmetric phenomenon as responded to by the dealers for domestic news is more significant than those of foreign investors and institutional trust investors.

Investigation of the impact of US News proxy on the returns of regional sharia compliance indices and volatility is the primary aim of this study. The daily data of Dow Jones Islamic index (DJII), Jakarata Islamic Index (JKII), Karachi Meezan Islamic Index (KMI) and Standard & Poor 500 stock index has been taken for the period of July 01, 2013 to June 30, 2018. GARCH (1,1) is extended with US News proxy for KMI, DJII and JKII. US news proxy identifies that leverage effect reveal the long run persistency in volatility. EGARCH (1,1) model indicates that higher volatility has bee also increased by bad news than good news due to leverage effect in sharia compliance returns. This study leads to extend various assets pricing models by modeling the volatility and will also inform the international and regional investors about the new trends of investment in Islamic stock indices and portfolio diversification.

Abstract The primary objective of the study is to examine the impact of political news (good and bad news) on the returns and volatility of Borsa Istanbul 100 Index (BIST-100). Sample data cover the period from January 2008 to December 2017. The main sample was divided into two subperiods to insulate the dominating impacts of both the 2008 Global Financial Crisis and 2013 Federal Reserve Tapering on Turkish stock markets. The daily stock market data were collected from the Electronic Data Delivery System (EVDS) web service, while political news headlines were collected from the Guardian newspaper. Different nonlinear volatility models (symmetric and asymmetric Generalized AutoRegressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity [GARCH]-type models) were used to model and estimate BIST-100 volatility in response to political news. The findings of the paper highlight four main results. First, there seems to be a significant impact of political news on the returns and volatility of BIST-100 index. Second, negative shocks derived from bad news tend to have a significant impact on the returns and volatility of BIST-100, while positive shocks derived from good news do not tend to have any significant impact on the returns, but decreased returns volatility. Third, political news, both good and bad, can affect stock return and stock return volatility in different directions, and this direction is time-varying. Fourth, the findings strongly reveal the presence of “Leverage Effect” in the returns of BIST-100 index. Therefore, one can say that political uncertainty is still a problem for the Turkish stock market.

The Impact

Foreign institutional investors have played an important role in the development of Indian stock market. In this paper, we study the relationship between the FII capital flows and the volatility of Indian stock market. To conduct the study, daily Index and trading data of SENSEX, NIFTY and FIIs was collected for fifteen years from April 1, 2001 to March 31, 2017. After testing for data stationarity using Augmented Dickey–Fuller test (ADF) unit root test, different statistical tools were applied such as S.D., mean, variance, skewness, correlation and GARCH model for testing the impact of FIIs flows on stock market volatility. The study concludes that there is strong relationship between the FIIs and the stock market return. Further, positive correlation exists between the variables and volatility transmission is there from FIIs to both the indices.

The Impact

This study examines the impact of terrorist activities and regime in Pakistan on the return and volatility dynamics of the financial markets in Pakistan between year 2000 and 2010. The study constructs two dummy variables that quantify political instability and terror and examine the effect on stock market volatility. An ARCH and GARCH model to discover evidence that terrorism and regime has a significant impact on both the return and volatility dynamics of stock markets. To capture the asymmetries in terms of negative and positive shocks, this study also uses threshold GARCH (TGARCH) and an exponential GARCH (EGARCH) model. From both of the TGARCH and EGARCH results, it can be reveal that for the return of KSE-100, there are asymmetries in the news that shows bad news has a larger effect on the volatility of return than good news. Finally study of the reaction of the stock market to terrorist events may also provide indication to investors and speculators to adjust their positions when such events transpire.

The Impact

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore recent literature on the impact of changes in the workplace environment and projected trends through to the year 2030. This allows the authors to identify and discuss what key trends are changing the nature of project organising work. The authors aim to identify what knowledge and which skills, attributes and experiences will be most likely valued and needed in 2030. Design/methodology/approach This paper is essentially a reflective review and is explorative in nature. The authors focus on several recent reports published in the UK and Australia that discuss the way that the future workforce will adapt and prepare for radical changes in the workplace environment. The authors focus on project organising work and the changing workplace knowledge, skills, attributes and experience (KSAE) needs of those working in project teams in 2030 and beyond. The authors draw upon existing KSAE literature including findings from a study undertaken into the KSAEs of project alliance managers working in a highly collaborative form of project delivery. Findings The analysis suggests that there is good and bad news about project workers prospects in 2030. The good news is that for those working in non-routine roles their work will be more interesting and rewarding than is the case for today. The bad news is that for workers in routine work roles, they will be replaced by advanced digital technology. Research limitations/implications Few, if any, papers published in the project organising literature speculate about what this discipline may look like or what KSAEs will be valued and needed. Practical implications This paper opens up a debate about how project management/project organising work will be undertaken in future and what skills and expertise will be required. It also prompts project managers to think about how they will craft their careers in 2030 in response to expected work environment demands. This will have professional and learning implications. Social implications The issue of the future workplace environment is highly relevant to the social context. Originality/value This paper is about a projected future some 12 years onward from today. It bridges a gap in any future debate about how project organising jobs may change and how they will be delivered in the 2030s.
