External Demand, Domestic Monetary Conditions, and Remittance Dynamics in Nepal

This study utilizes a unified ARDL-ECM framework with PCA-derived indices to demonstrate that external demand and domestic monetary conditions significantly drive Nepal's remittance inflows, revealing a stable long-run relationship where tighter monetary policy reduces remittances while external demand boosts them, with projections indicating remittances will reach approximately 28.3% of GDP by 2030.

The fine structure of electricity price volatility

This paper presents the first rigorous study of electricity price volatility across Germany, Norway, and Spain by employing a stochastic partial differential equation framework to estimate weekly integrated variance, revealing that while volatility drivers and generation impacts vary significantly by zone, apparent leverage effects are actually explained by conditioning on state variables rather than representing genuine asymmetric responses to price shocks.

Does social media information affect individual investor disposition effect? Evidence from Xueqiu

Using data from the Chinese social investment platform Xueqiu, this study demonstrates that social media information, particularly negative news, significantly mitigates individual investors' disposition effect by fostering more rational trading behavior, with the magnitude of this impact varying based on investor characteristics such as experience, network size, region, and gender.
