  • Abstract: the Purpose of This Paper Is to Investigate
    THE ECONOMIC COST OF NUCLEAR THREATS: A NORTH KOREA CASE STUDY. Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to investigate how public announcements of a nation’s nuclear programme development influence neighbouring countries’ stock markets. The countries examined in this case study are North and South Korea. To test this relationship I conducted an event study using MacKinlay’s market model. Six announcement days were studied comprising out of three nuclear tests and three missile and satellite related tests. The findings of this research are in contrast to prior research. Empirical researches on the economic effects of terrorism suggest that acts of terrorism create large impacts on economic activity. The results of our event study show that the announcements caused both negative and positive reactions on the market. Author: Ryan McKee Student number: 6181066 Supervisor: Shivesh Changoer Date: 8th of Jan, 2014 ETCS: 12 INTRODUCTION Stock prices represent investor’s expectations about the future. News announcements effect these expectations on a day to day basis. Terrorist attacks, military invasions, nuclear threats or any other ambivalent events can alter investor’s expectations and so allow the prices of stocks and bonds to deviate from their fundamental value. Once such events have taken place investors often defer from the market in search of safer, more secure financial investments which can lead to panic and chaos on the markets (Chen and Siems, 2004). Such chaos can also be caused by threats from other neighbouring countries. A perfect example of this is the relationship between North and South Korea. Ever since the division of North and South Korea on September 8, 1945 the two bordering nations have had a strenuous relationship, ultimately leading to the Korean war of 1950-1953.

  • Synthetic Rubber Is Any Type of Artificially Produced Polymer Material That Acts As an Elastomer Or Rubber
    Synthetic Rubbers Synthetic rubber is any type of artificially produced polymer material that acts as an elastomer or rubber. Elastomers are able to take much more deformation than most materials without permanent effects. The chemical properties of synthetic rubbers vary depending on the raw materials and methods used to make them. Synthetic rubbers are superior to the real thing in certain ways, including resistance to oil, heat, and ozone. 74 Kumho Petrochemical Annual Report 2012 75 Synthetic Rubbers 2012 Review 2013 Outlook Synthetic Rubbers Accounting for 51.6% of overall sales in 2012, our With the Eurozone financial crisis dampening synthetic rubbers business saw sales fall 14.1% to consumer sentiment, global automobile sales are 51.6 % of total sales KRW 3,037.7 billion, playing a leading role in our projected to be slow, rising around 3.4% in 2013.
