In the context of asset prices, this means that previous returns or the price development of an asset is indicative of similar future returns and price development. While at odds with established theory such as the weaker fo
This study examines whether machine learning (ML) models can forecast daily Bitcoin price directions and generate statistically significant alpha in trading strategies. Employing a dual-model approach, we utilize a Random Forest (RF) classifier, leveraging its non-linear strengths and a LASSO-penalized logistic regression as a linear benchmark. Both models are trained on a comprehensive dataset o

This thesis investigates the long-run performance of IPOs in the U.S. market, a topic that remains timely given the historic issuance wave in 2020–2021 and the sharp monetary tightening that followed.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Nollvisionen antagen av Sveriges riksdag fastlägger att ingen skall behöva dödas eller skadas svårt i trafiken i Sverige. Införande av detta begrepp förskjuter fokus från trafikolyckorna till konsekvenserna av trafikolyckorna och härmed skapas förutsättningar för ett paradigmskifte i trafiksäkerhetsarbetet. För att åstadkomma önskade förändringar är det nödvändigt och bThe over-arching objectives of this thesis were to formulate a method to describe the consequences of traffic casualties, and to explain the influence of different traffic engineering factors on these consequences for society and individuals over time. A more detailed objective was to examine whether available short-term indicators can be used to predict consequences in a long-term perspective. Ot

Especially in cities, particles smaller than 10 µm in aerodynamic diameter (PM10) can reach high concentrations. These particles are dangerous, even at low concentrations, since they are small enough to enter the lungs. In order to estimate the concentration of air pollutants, different measureme
