That is in accordance with Avaton, the old law that is believed to have been written according to instructions of the Mother of God, to whom the Holly Mountain is dedicated. In pre-Christian times, Athos was famous for its temple of Zeus the Thunderer, shrines of Apollo, Artemis and other Olympian gods, but since then its appearance has mysteriously changed. From Greek Macedonia, the first area of Europe where the church was established by Paul the Apostle, Christ’s fate expanded like fire over the whole Chalcidice and scientists say there had been a mysterious scattering of people from the Athos peninsula. Christian tradition explained the disappearance of cities by the will of god, in order for the Holy Mountain to become the “Virgin Mary’s garden”, meant for monks who shall celebrate her. It happened after the resurrection of Christ, when Virgin Mary sailed for Cyprus with St. John to visit resurrected Lazarus from Vitania, who was the episcope there. The ship was blown off to the eastern shore of Athos, to the present day port of the monastery Iviron. On that mild elevation above the sea, the natural amphitheater between the hills over which the clear fresh streams fall, there was a town of Kleonai with the famous Apollo’s shrine. As soon as Virgin Mary stepped ashore, pagan shrines and statues shook and crumbled, including the temple of the Zeus on the top of Athos. The Holy Mountain is the mountain and peninsula in Greece, in the province of Macedonia. On that small stretch of land, the “third finger” of Chalcidice that juts into the sea some 60 km and is 7-12 km wide, there are 20 orthodox monasteries, 12 sketes and numerous mountain caves, constituting the autonomous state under the Greek sovereignty. The monastic community was formally established in 963 AD, when the monk Athanasios the Athonite established the monastery the Great Lavra, still the largest and the most prominent of the monasteries existing today on Athos, after centuries of being under the rule of Byzantine, Serbs and Turks. It ended up under the modern Greek sovereignty after World War I and the brief diplomatic conflict between Greece and Russia over sovereignty. 5 ΑΞΙΟΝ ΕΣΤΙΝ MARCH/APRIL 2018 ΙΑΜ ΙΝΦΙΝΙΤΥ Monk Athanasios is known for introducing communal monasticism (the so-called coenobitic system) with monks living in communities instead of solitude. Long fasts, vigils and kneeling brought monk Athanasios such monastic perfection that prior blessed him by allowing him to continue with asceticism in silence in a quiet place close to the monastery. Later, he lived in many desolate and lonely places, finally reaching a place called Melana, at the southern-eastern border of Mount Athos. He settled there far away from all other monk settlements on Athos, made himself a cottage and led life of asceticism, progressing to higher monastic achievements. Saint Athanasios the Athonite is considered to be one of the main representatives of isichastic tradition on the Holy Mount. Hesychasm (Greek: ησυχια hesihia - stillness, rest, quiet, silence) is the praying tradition in Eastern Orthodox Church, practiced by monks hesychasts (Greek: Ἡσυχαστής hesihastes). This type of spiritual life is mainly present on the Holy Mount. Isichastic practice starts with atonement and accomplishments for purifying the body and the soul from passion. It is continued through permanent inner prayer of the heart, resulting in seeing of divine light, like apostles saw on Mount Tabor during Jesus’ transfiguration. Hesychasm is not only the act of accomplishment, but the complete turn to one’s inner self unified with fullness of church life and necessity of taking of sacraments.

  • How Complexity Anticipates Black Swans – the 2020 Market Crash
    How Complexity Anticipates Black Swans – the 2020 Market Crash. April, 26th 2020 The 2020 stock market crash was a global stock market crash that began on 20 February 2020. On 12 February, the Dow Jones Industrial Average, the NASDAQ Composite, and S&P 500 Index all finished at record highs (while the NASDAQ and S&P 500 reached subsequent record highs on 19 February). From 24 to 28 February, stock markets worldwide reported their largest one-week declines since the 2008 financial crisis, thus entering a correction. Global markets into early March became extremely volatile, with large swings occurring in global markets. On 9 March, most global markets reported severe contractions, mainly in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and an oil price war between Russia and the OPEC countries led by Saudi Arabia. This became colloquially known as Black Monday. At the time, it was the worst drop since the Great Recession in 2008. During March 2020, global stocks saw a downturn of at least 25%, and 30% in most G20 nations. Complexity tends to peak, or increases rapidly, prior to a crisis. Financial markets are no exception. We have devised new complexity-based indices for anticipating Black Swans. One such index, which we call C3, has worked egregiously in major European markets, offering early warnings ranging from 40 to 220 hours before the February 2020 collapse. Below are the charts of the said indices together with the corresponding C3 index. The dashed red line indicates when C3 peaks, triggering a shorting signal, while the blue dashed line coincides with the commencing of the downfall.

  • The Joint Dynamics of Investor Beliefs and Trading During the Covid
    THE JOINT DYNAMICS OF INVESTOR BELIEFS AND TRADING DURING THE COVID-19 CRASH Stefano Giglio∗ Matteo Maggioriy Johannes Stroebelz Stephen Utkus§ September 2020 Abstract We analyze how investor expectations about economic growth and stock returns changed dur- ing the February-March 2020 stock market crash induced by the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as during the subsequent partial stock market recovery. We surveyed retail investors who are clients of Vanguard at three points in time: (i) on February 11-12, around the all-time stock market high, (ii) on March 11-12, after the stock market had collapsed by over 20%, and (iii) on April 16-17, after the market had rallied 25% from its lowest point. Following the crash, the average investor turned more pessimistic about the short-run performance of both the stock market and the real economy. Investors also perceived higher probabilities of both further extreme stock market declines and large declines in short-run real economic activity. In con- trast, investor expectations about long-run (10-year) economic and stock market outcomes re- mained largely unchanged, and, if anything, improved. Disagreement among investors about economic and stock market outcomes also increased substantially following the stock market crash, with the disagreement persisting through the partial market recovery. Those respon- dents who were the most optimistic in February saw the largest decline in expectations, and sold the most equity. Those respondents who were the most pessimistic in February largely left their portfolios unchanged during and after the crash. JEL Codes: G11, G12, R30.

  • The 2020 Economic Crisis
    What do you want to achieve? The 2020 Economic Crisis: A Historical Perspective on Global Economic Distress and the Unique Impact the COVID-19 Crisis Will Have on U.S. Restructurings By John J. Rapisardi and Jacob T. Beiswenger Introduction The global community is currently facing an unprecedented challenge based on the outbreak of a respiratory illness caused by a novel coronavirus known as COVID-19. Since the beginning of 2020, cases of COVID-19 have gradually spread across the world, creating a health crisis pandemic. The spread of COVID-19 and its economic effects, including the closure of all non- essential businesses, remains highly uncertain. Most of the world’s major economies are experiencing partial or even near complete lockdowns. As a result of the economic slowdown, the COVID-19 virus threatens a global economic crisis unlike any faced in our lifetimes. This two-part article explores the underlying risks to the U.S. economy posed by the COVID-19 health crisis and how restructuring efforts can be utilized to facilitate a durable solution for the U.S. economy. Part one discusses the current status of the U.S. economy and examines historical foreign and domestic responses to dramatic economic crises over the last 40 years. Part two examines the unique challenges posed by the COVID-19 crisis that will require a new and innovative response to remedy underlying weaknesses in the U.S. economy. Importantly, U.S. restructurings—both in and out of court—will play a crucial role in realigning industries and right-sizing corporate balance sheets to successfully adjust the U.S.

    August 12, 2020 The Honorable Alex M. Azar II Secretary Department of Health and Human Services 200 Independence Avenue, S.W. Washington, D.C. 20201 Dear Secretary Azar: The Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Crisis is examining the actions of Operation Warp Speed, the Trump Administration’s program to develop, manufacture, and distribute coronavirus vaccines, therapeutics, and diagnostics, as well as the potential conflicts of interest of the program’s chief adviser, Dr. Moncef Slaoui. Public health experts agree that the development and equitable distribution of a safe and effective coronavirus vaccine is critical to stemming the tide of new infections and deaths from the coronavirus.1 Successful development of a vaccine requires scientific rigor and an open and transparent process that is free from financial and political conflicts of interest.2 This is especially true of a vaccine developed on an accelerated basis. The Select Subcommittee strongly supports efforts to develop and distribute a life-saving coronavirus vaccine, but I am concerned that the selection of candidate vaccines for Operation Warp Speed lacked transparency and excluded many vaccine experts. I am also concerned that Dr. Slaoui’s financial interests in companies receiving federal funding—which he has referred to as “my retirement”—raise serious ethical issues and could undermine public confidence in this process.3 In early 2020, President Trump and others in his Administration downplayed the risks to Americans from the coronavirus outbreak, even as the virus spread throughout the United 1 Ending the COVID-19 Pandemic Requires Effective Multilateralism, Health Affairs (May 27, 2020) (online a t www.healthaffairs.org/do/10.1377/hblog20200522.123995/full/).

  • Analyze and Predict the Aftermath of the 2020 Stock Market Crash on the US Economy
    2020 International Conference on Economics, Education and Social Research (ICEESR 2020) Analyze and Predict the Aftermath of the 2020 Stock Market Crash on the US Economy Hongyue Sun* University of Rochester, 500 Joseph C. Wilson Blvd., Rochester, NY, United States Keywords: Stock Market; Policy reaction; Financial contagion; Globalization Abstract: The paper mainly focuses on the US stock market and the corresponding impacts on the US economy. Firstly, the stock market crash in 1987 and 2020 will be compared, and the potential factors as well as its aftermath––including policy reactions, financial contagion, debt level unemployment rate, and risk premium rate––will be identified and scrutinized. Secondly, the relationship between these factors and the economy will be examined, along with other related certain factors being pinpointed. Last but not least, based on the identified factors, feasible suggestions will be proposed on how to help recover the economy in the near future. 1. Introduction Recently, there has been increasing concerns about whether the undergoing stock market crash would continue in the near future and thus drag the US economy into the recession. On March 12, 2020, the stock market suffered the biggest stock market decline since the Black Monday in 1987. While there are many connects between those two events according to Serwer (2020) [1], such connection makes people ponder if the two crashes are truly alike. As the aftermath of the stock market crash in 2020 is still unknown, it is worth comparing and analyzing the stock market crash in 1987 and the one in 2020. This paper is inspired by a journal written by Mishkin and White (2002) [2].

  • COVID-19 Outbreak and CO2 Emissions: Macro-Financial Linkages
    Journal of Risk and Financial Management Article COVID-19 Outbreak and CO2 Emissions: Macro-Financial Linkages Julien Chevallier 1,2 1 IPAG Lab, IPAG Business School, 184 boulevard Saint-Germain, 75006 Paris, France; [email protected] 2 Economics Department, Université Paris 8 (LED), 2 rue de la Liberté, 93526 Saint-Denis CEDEX, France Abstract: In the Dynamic Conditional Correlation with Mixed Data Sampling (DCC-MIDAS) frame- work, we scrutinize the correlations between the macro-financial environment and CO2 emissions in the aftermath of the COVID-19 diffusion. The main original idea is that the economy’s lock-down will alleviate part of the greenhouse gases’ burden that human activity induces on the environment. We capture the time-varying correlations between U.S. COVID-19 confirmed cases, deaths, and recovered cases that were recorded by the Johns Hopkins Coronavirus Center, on the one hand; U.S. Total Industrial Production Index and Total Fossil Fuels CO2 emissions from the U.S. Energy Information Administration on the other hand. High-frequency data for U.S. stock markets are included with five-minute realized volatility from the Oxford-Man Institute of Quantitative Finance. The DCC-MIDAS approach indicates that COVID-19 confirmed cases and deaths negatively influence the macro-financial variables and CO2 emissions. We quantify the time-varying correlations of CO2 emissions with either COVID-19 confirmed cases or COVID-19 deaths to sharply decrease by −15% to −30%. The main takeaway is that we track correlations and reveal a recessionary outlook against the background of the pandemic. Keywords: COVID-19; CO2 emissions; time-varying correlations; macroeconomy; stock markets; DCC MIDAS Citation: Chevallier, Julien.
