  • Peer Effects in Stock Market Participation: Evidence from Immigration1
    Peer effects in stock market participation: Evidence from immigration1 Anastasia Girshina2, Thomas Y. Mathä3, Michael Ziegelmeyer4 This draft: November 2017 Abstract This paper studies the effect of stock market participation of foreigners on the participation decision of natives. To identify the peer effect we exploit the unique composition of the Luxembourg population with 42% of foreigners by using variation in stock market participation among different immigrant groups. We solve the reflection problem by instrumenting foreigners´ stock ownership decision with the lagged participation rates in their countries of origin. We separate contextual and correlated effects from the endogenous peer effect by controlling for neighbourhood and individual characteristics. We find that foreign peers' stock market participation has sizeable effects on that of natives. We also document evidence of social learning as a channel through which this peer effect is transmitted. However, social learning alone cannot account for the total effect and we conclude that social utility might also play an important role in peer effects transmission. JEL: D14, D83, G11, I22 Keywords: peer effects, stock market participation, social utility, social learning 1 The results in this paper are preliminary materials circulated to stimulate discussion and critical comment.

  • The "POSTES RELAIS" Cancellations of Luxembourg STA.L-F
    The "POSTES RELAIS" Cancellations of Luxembourg . Among the 17 postal relais existing in 1881, 13 did not yet possess a cancelling device. These 13 offices received a two ring obliterator with the inscription "POSTES RELAIS'', followed by the number of the relais (seePostal Instruction No. 115/2906, dated 9August 1881) but without hour indication. The postal relais were: Arsdorf (No. 1), Bissen (No. 2), Differdange (No. 3), Kautenbach (No. 4), Mamer (No. 5), Oetrange (No. 6), Bettingen (No. 7), Rambrouch (No. 8), Reisdorf (No. 9), Strassen (No. 10), Walferdange (No. 11), Wecker (No. 12) and Wilwerwiltz (No. 13). The cancel "POSTES RELAIS No. 4" was transferred on 1 April 1883 to the relais ofDalheim. The relaiS of Beaufort, opened on 1June 1889 received the cancel "Postes Relais Nr. 14". The standard color of the cancels is usually black for all post offices, but there are also cancels in blue, lilac or on very rare occasions - green. The outside diameter of the cancels is 25, 25.5 or 26 mm, the inside diameter of the double circle is always 15 mm. At the end of the year 1891 the "POSTES RELAIS" cancellation devices are all replaced by a two ring circle with the name of the town on it. These towns were at the time very small, often with a few hundred inhabitants. In first years of usage of the cancels the stamps and postal stationery shown are of the classic "Coat ofArms" design. In later years they get replaced by stamps with the "Allegory" design. STA.L-F. -- - A !Sll Ce cM(- c�t rC!'cnc excluli=n·ement a l'adresse Pour 11Int�r1eu,.

Eng Woch laang gouf besonnesch un deen Dag erënnert, wou d’amerikanesch Zaldoten vun Athus hir an eist Land gefuer koumen. Et kéint ee soen, et wier e Gebuertsdag gewiescht, well no véier laange Joren ënner der Schreckensherrschaft vun engem Nazi-Regime muss et de Bierger ewéi en neit Liewe virkomm sinn. Firwat eng national Ausstellung zu Péiteng? Jo, et gi Muséeën a Gedenkplazen am Land, déi un de Krich erënneren.
