"Forecasting Stock Market Averages
to Enhance Profitable Trading Strategies"
Christian HAEFKE and Christian HELMENSTEIN
(IHS)
Abstract:
In this paper we formulate a trading strategy
for stocks that exploits the informational
difference implied by different stock market
index construction principles. In order to gain
a competitive advantage over other market participants,
we forecast the indexes one day ahead and subsequently
generate buy and sell signals through the trading rule.
To illustrate how the system works, we apply it to select
stocks from those constituting the ATX index sample.
The forecasting of the indexes is done applying standard
financial econometric techniques and feedforward neural
networks. Drawing upon various model selection criteria,
such as AIC, HQ and SIC, we discuss their potential for
rendering parsimonious neural network architectures.
Keywords:
Artificial Neural Networks, Model Selection,
Stock Market Indexes, Trading Systems.
Ort: HS II
Zeit: 9.00 Uhr c. t.

"DER EINFLUSS DES FORSCHUNGSDESIGNS AUF DIE HOEHE VON
BESTIMMTHEITSMASSEN IN LINEAREN REGRESSIONSMODELLEN"
Abstract:
The classical linear regression model is the standard procedure for
analyzing dependencies between variables that are measured on a
metric scale. In the course of model estimation it is common practice to
assess the appropriateness of a single descriptive model for the
problem under study with the help of coefficients of determination (R^2
and ADJ. R^2 ). When considering the advantages of calculating these
measures in empirical studies the question arises whether it makes
sense to evaluate a model by means of a single descriptive measure at
all. For example, from a statistical point of view the analyzed data set
is irrelevant when deciding on the appropriateness of the model under
consideration. However, a market researcher clearly distinguishes
whether he studies time series or cross sectional data. A well known
fact says that on the average one may expect larger coefficients of
determination for time series data than for cross sectional data.
Starting from this known phenomenon it is tried to identify various
impacts on R^2 and ADJ. R^2 that originate in the research designs of
empirical studies rather than in the research subjects within the
framework of a meta-analysis. One important result claims a strong
negative correlation between the sample size and the values of R^2
and ADJ. R^2 .

,Gleichzeitige, zweifache Segmentierung als Instrument der
Marketingforschung"
Abstract:
Gleichzeitige, zweifache Segmentierungstechniken koennen z.B.
eingesetzt werden, wenn bei Strukturierungsbemuehungen in Maerkten
der Wunsch besteht, sowohl auf der Angebotsseite wie auf der
Nachfrageseite geeignete Gruppierungen dergestalt zu finden, dass
Nachfragesegmente und Angebotsteilmengen einander bestmoeglichst
zugeordnet werden koennen. Es werden Ansaetze beschrieben, wie die
Bildung solcher gleichzeitigen, zweifachen Segmentierungen durch
leicht nachvollziehbare Berechnungsvorschriften unterstuetzt werden
kann, wobei auch Ausfaelle im Antwortverhalten von Befragten
beruecksichtigt werden koennen. Zusaetzlich werden Moeglichkeiten und
Grenzen ueberlappender Segmentierungsprozeduren diskutiert.
