The document analyzes the effect of domestic and foreign political events on stock prices in the US and London stock markets. It collected stock price data from NASDAQ and LSEG exchanges and adjusted for inflation and currency rates. Using statistical analysis like confidence intervals and t-tests, it found no statistically significant impacts of events like the 2008 and 2012 US elections, Greek financial crisis, or Scottish independence vote on either market. The UK market showed more volatility. Future work could analyze more recent elections with smaller event windows and expand to other global markets.
Modelling the Effects of Border Tax Adjustments on Trade and Current Account ...David Laborde
Presentation done at the GTAP Conference 2017 on the US proposal of border tax adjustment. It shows the role of a Computable General Equilibrium in bringing transparency in the debate and have clear definitions and assumptions to measure a major policy change. Our conclusions show that trade impacts should be negligible but will involve major domestic redistribution between economic agents and generations.

La seguridad informática en el diseño tecnopedagógicoCarlos Cuesta
Tanto el diseño tecnopedagógico (DTP) como la seguridad de la información son dos elementos que desde diferentes puntos de vista se consideran imprescindibles para la consecución de cualquier objetivo docente en el marco del e-learning.
A lo largo de esta asignatura hemos podido observar la importancia del DTP a la hora de llevar a buen puerto los objetivos y las competencias que se proponga cualquier educador.
La seguridad informática ha ido adquiriendo en los últimos años una importancia creciente y es un elemento transversal al uso de las tecnologías en cualquier entorno, incluso se considera un elemento determinante para que se pueda llevar a cabo.
El objetivo de este ensayo es establecer la influencia que ejerce la seguridad de la información en el diseño tecnopedagógico, como condiciona este último y cuáles son los elementos que se deben tener en cuenta para integrar ambos de la forma más eficaz posible.

Trading Strategies Based on Market Impact of Macroeconomic Announcementsby A...Quantopian
We examine returns of several US equity ETFs on the days of major US macroeconomic announcements and compare performance of the buy-and-hold strategy (B&H) with three different strategies that realize daily returns on the announcement days. We show that these strategies may outperform B&H.

Stat 3250 Final - Group 2.pptx
1. The Effect of Domestic and Foreign
Political Events on the US and
London Stock Markets
Wasif Ali
Michael Bechara
Priya Chandrashekar
Zhanpeng Ruan
2. Agenda
• Motivation & selected events
• Data collection and adjustment
• Approach and code
• Analysis results
• Conclusion
• Next steps
3. Motivation
• We have gone through a politically tumultuous
past few years
• Domestic and Foreign
• What impact does this have on our finances?
• Goal: Figure out how different domestic and
foreign political events impact two major
exchanges: NASDAQ and the London Stock
Exchange Group
5. About the Data
● 30 stocks from NASDAQ and 30 stocks from LSEG
■ Concatenated each exchange into two separate data frames
• Adjusted for formatting (column names, file format etc)
• Converted these data frames into clean CSV files to be used for analysis
● Adjustment of units
■ Since we are using different market and timeframes, adjustments with the prices are needed
• Currency Rate
• Inflation Rate
6. Increasing trend in CPI shows important of inflation
Source: Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis
7. Approach and Code
- Inflation rate: computed using Consumer Price Index (CPI)
- Currency exchange rate: extrapolate missing data
- Difference between pre-event and post-event average stock price
- Scatter plot of price difference
- Match-paired hypothesis test on price difference
- Confidence interval, p-value, etc.
- Bar graph of daily total volume
15. Drawing Conclusions
• UK marketplace is relatively more
volatile than US
• Investors should not make rash
decisions
➢ Decrease dumping of stocks during a
politically tumultuous time
• The prospect of shorting stocks is only
viable within a very short window
➢ Timing is critical!
16. Next Step
- Testing smaller window
- Expanding sample size
- Test effect from 2016
Presidential elections
- Expanding to other global
markets
Editor's Notes
Wasif
Go over our agenda
Talk about presidential election and foreign events
Often times these volatilities in the marketplace have the biggest impact on the middle class
wasif
-choose these events bc they seemed the most stand out political events of the past decade
Pick 3 US political events, to test their effect on US and UK market
Pick 3 UK political events, to test their effect on US and UK market
wasif
-used the glob functionality
-obtained the data from nasdaq website and yahoo finance

Initially not sure whether inflation should be included
Plot CPI Vs. time
See increasing trend of CPI → cannot ignore the impact
Decided to include inflation effect in our analysis
Saw the importance of inflation and currency
Applied that in our data to adjust the pricing
We got all our data from the bureu of labor statistics
Troy
Lack of inflation data → use CPI to indirectly calculate inflation rate
Select CPI within relevant timeframe, apply inflation formula to get the corresponding periodic inflation rate
Apply that inflation rate to our pre-event stock price so that it is comparable to post-event price
Currency conversion is needed to compare UK price and US stock price
Use daily rate, believe in high fluctuation of conversion rate, wanna be as accurate as possible
Get historical currency exchange rate from federal reserve, contain missing data
Extrapolate missing rate using previous rate: changes within one day is minor, previous day’s rate is a good proxy
Apply that currency exchange rate to UK stock price so that it is comparable to US stock price
Preparation of hypo test: get price difference, result in 30 price differences, become our sample of hypothesis test
Scatter plot of price difference: to eyeball any significant effect on stock price
Actual match-paired test result: CI, p-value
Bar graph: to see if trading behavior changes due to political events
-none of our results were seen to be significant you can see in the large p-values
-relatively narrower CI
-largest confidence interval was Scottish Independence
Troy
-none of our results were seen to be significant you can see in the large p-values
-relatively wider CI, indicating higher volatility in UK market
-largest confidence interval was 2016 Super Tuesday

Volume does not change much around the event-time
Indicate no significant investing behavior changes
Could potentially explain why stock prices stay similar even with significant political events -- since they don’t invest more or less
To make sure the stocks we chose were prominent in the marketplace, we visualized the volumes for each event. For example, here is the volume shown durng the 2008 Presidential Election so we can see there is a great deal of movement in this stock during this time.
