  • The Rising Thunder El Nino and Stock Markets
    THE RISING THUNDER EL NINO AND STOCK MARKETS: By Tristan Caswell A Project Presented to The Faculty of Humboldt State University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Business Administration Committee Membership Dr. Michelle Lane, Ph.D, Committee Chair Dr. Carol Telesky, Ph.D Committee Member Dr. David Sleeth-Kepler, Ph.D Graduate Coordinator July 2015 Abstract THE RISING THUNDER EL NINO AND STOCK MARKETS: Tristan Caswell Every year, new theories are generated that seek to describe changes in the pricing of equities on the stock market and changes in economic conditions worldwide. There are currently theories that address the market value of stocks in relation to the underlying performance of their financial assets, known as bottom up investing, or value investing. There are also theories that intend to link the performance of stocks to economic factors such as changes in Gross Domestic Product, changes in imports and exports, and changes in Consumer price index as well as other factors, known as top down investing. Much of the current thinking explains much of the current movements in financial markets and economies worldwide but no theory exists that explains all of the movements in financial markets. This paper intends to propose the postulation that some of the unexplained movements in financial markets may be perpetuated by a consistently occurring weather phenomenon, known as El Nino. This paper intends to provide a literature review, documenting currently known trends of the occurrence of El Nino coinciding with the occurrence of a disturbance in the worldwide financial markets and economies, as well as to conduct a statistical analysis to explore whether there are any statistical relationships between the occurrence of El Nino and the occurrence of a disturbance in the worldwide financial markets and economies.

  • Market Crises and Dodd-Frank: Does the Act Protect Against Hazardous Student Loan Securitization?
    2018-2019 STUDENT LOAN SECURITIZATION 869 MARKET CRISES AND DODD-FRANK: DOES THE ACT PROTECT AGAINST HAZARDOUS STUDENT LOAN SECURITIZATION? MORGAN TANAFON* Abstract This note evaluates whether the provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act’s Title IX effectively protect the markets from the threat of predatory and toxic securitization through the examination of the student loan asset-backed securities (SLABS) market. Much of Title IX specifically addresses the dangers inherent in mortgage-backed securities, but are other risky forms of asset-backed securities suffi- ciently guarded against? This paper will compare two market crises: the 2007–08 crisis and the Black Monday crash of 1987 to identify some commonalities, detail how SLABS are formed and sold, and examine how effective the central protections of Title IX have been in preventing risky securities investing. The results lead to a determina- tion that the main reasons that the financial crisis of 2007–08 occurred have either not been addressed, have not been implemented, or have been circumvented. In order to guard against another securities-related financial crisis, the Dodd-Frank Act will need significant amendment and reform. * Boston University School of Law (J.D. 2019).

  • The Federal Reserve's Response to the Global Financial Crisis In
    Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas Globalization and Monetary Policy Institute Working Paper No. 209 http://www.dallasfed.org/assets/documents/institute/wpapers/2014/0209.pdf Unprecedented Actions: The Federal Reserve’s Response to the Global Financial Crisis in Historical Perspective* Frederic S. Mishkin Columbia University and National Bureau of Economic Research Eugene N. White Rutgers University and National Bureau of Economic Research October 2014 Abstract Interventions by the Federal Reserve during the financial crisis of 2007-2009 were generally viewed as unprecedented and in violation of the rules---notably Bagehot’s rule---that a central bank should follow to avoid the time-inconsistency problem and moral hazard. Reviewing the evidence for central banks’ crisis management in the U.S., the U.K. and France from the late nineteenth century to the end of the twentieth century, we find that there were precedents for all of the unusual actions taken by the Fed. When these were successful interventions, they followed contingent and target rules that permitted pre- emptive actions to forestall worse crises but were combined with measures to mitigate moral hazard.
