Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. 'Uniform Edition.' 'The Writings of Oscar Wilde.' Illustrated with four full-page b&w drawings, each inset in a square. All four are in excellent condition and are protected by a tissue guard containing a related quote in red print (i.e. " 'Are you mad?' He asked in fright." Or " 'Confess that you are tired of me?' "). I have to confess that I'm having trouble identifying this book in relationship to the others that are for sale. I haven't found a reference to a copy that matches it. There are 556 pages. After the frontispiece ( " 'I order you to go away tomorrow' ") there is a half-title page which identifies Keller-Farmer as the publisher and 1907 as the date of publication. The following title page, light yellow with black and red lettering, also references a copyright in 1907 by A.R. Keller & Co. This book does not appear to be a limited edition. On the spine is printed ' Edition De Luxe '. The top page edge is gilt. The middle and bottom page edges are deckled or rough-cut. You can see the gilt lettering and border with the dark green background on the spine in the second photo. There's a little bit of crinkling and rubbing at the spine ends. There is a little handling soiling on the front cover, and that one bit of lipstick or blood (I order you to go away tomorrow) on the rear cover. Parts of the cover edges have a bit of color fade to white. The two bottom corners have a spot of rub-through. The book is pretty square and the spine is pretty straight. The pages are very nicely and solidly bound from cover to cover. Over parts of the juncture between the front inside cover and front end paper the paper has a thin tear and some webbing is showing, same with the rear cover, but over most of it, though the paper is mostly in place. Both covers have a slight bit of give if you pull at them from the side, but are solidly bound. Both white inside covers and endpapers are clean. That's the case with the pages. The only exception to that is the page listing the illustrations which has a speckling of speck-sized brownish spots. It's not actually soiling, rather some minor reaction to the paper I suppose. You can see it to a smaller extent on a few other pages here and there, pretty inconspicuous. There's very little actual soiling and the pages are fairly bright. I just saw something really odd (never saw this before): The name of the publisher can vaguely be seen at the margins of most of the pages in colorless block letters. What an odd thing for a publisher to do. How much would that add to the value of the book? I'll assume nothing. Be clear that this is not something an owner did, this is the way the book was produced. Finishing up, the pages are in very decent condition. I'm not seeing much by way of creasing, no turned-down corners or placeholder creases. There are no markings. No attachments of any kind. And no one has written their name or anything else anywhere in the book. The book has its own Wikipedia profile: 'an 1884 novel, it tells the story of the orphan Allan who falls in love with his protectress, Mme de Scudemot, who has become indifferent due to erotic excesses in her youth; Allan eventually marries his lover's daughter Camille, but has been smitten by the older woman's indifference. The narrative uses techniques from the Gothic novel and its French counterpart, the "roman frénétique". Written between 1833 and 1836, it was the first full-length novel by d'Aurevilly. An English translation published in 1902, was falsely attributed to Oscar Wilde under his pseudonym Sebastian Melmoth. In his 1967 monograph, 'The Novels and Stories of Barbey D'Aurevilly', Brian G. Rogers wrote "Though liberally sprinkled with youthful errors, the novel is the first full-length work to reflect Barbey's enthusiasm for a world completely dominated by passion, and already his treatment of incipient attraction, passionate love and cold disillusion takes on a characteristic flavour. Here, not a single note rings false.".…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Seminar paper from the year 2021 in the subject Economics - Finance, grade: 1,3, University of Hagen (Fakultät für Wirtschaftswissenschaft, Lehrstuhl für Angewandte Statistik), language: English, abstract: The CAPM provides a single state, single factor, general equilibrium theory of the risk-return relation. However, in the 1960s, Mandelbrot (1963) already observed stock returns to have a very peaked distribution with heavy tails and also periods of persistent volatility, which contradicts the CAPM. In response to these observations, the Conditional CAPM (C-CAPM) has been discussed by several authors. In a C-CAPM investors can price an asset or portfolio conditional on the available information at a point in time. This is done by replacing the unconditional by conditional moments of returns. Statistically, processes of ¿Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroscedasticity¿ (GARCH) can capture the so called ¿stylized facts¿, some observed by Mandelbrot (1963). GARCH models were developed by Engle (1982) and Bollerslev (1986) and try to model time-varying second moments of asset returns. If a GARCH process is assumed for the disturbance term in a C-CAPM, a GARCH-in mean model (GARCH-M) can be estimated, where the conditional variance or covariance impacts the conditional expectation of (excess) returns. The GARCH-M can model time-varying conditional moments, but also time-varying risk premia and the implied beta factor. As for this seminar paper, I mostly follow the comprehensive dissertation ¿Das CAPM mit zeitabhängigen Beta-Faktoren¿ of Linnenbrink (1998) and the paper of Bollerslev et al. (1988). First, the theoretical foundations of the CAPM, the C-CAPM, GARCH processes and the GARCH-M extension are presented. Then, in the empirical part, I estimate a (univariate) GARCH-M representation of the C-CAPM. I compare its performance to a traditional CAPM with a single stock portfolio of an investor (selected stock: Tesla, Inc.).…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Master's Thesis from the year 2022 in the subject Economics - Finance, grade: 1,7, University of Hagen (Fakultät für Wirtschaftswissenschaft, Lehrstuhl für Bank- und Finanzwirtschaft), language: English, abstract: Corporate bond credit spreads are much larger than historical default rates, which leads to an unexplained gap between the default premium component and total credit spread. This gap is referred to as the 'credit spread puzzle' in the literature and has driven the discussion of the components of credit spreads in the past decades. The size of each component affects the decision of whether to purchase a particular class of bonds; this underlines its importance in risk management, portfolio management, and valuation. The first goal of the thesis is to provide a comprehensive review of the current state of research on how to decompose credit spreads and estimate their parts. Second, in an empirical study, the systematic risk in current EUR-denominated credit spreads is estimated and compared to the results of Elton et al. (2001). Furthermore, I analyze the regime-dependence of credit spreads for different cross-sections, as systematic risk has proven important in crisis periods. Finally, implications for the calculation of debt beta are derived as in business valuations it is possible to use a debt beta if the debt of the valuation object is subject to a systematic risk that leads to a signifcant risk premium demanded by debt providers. I show that the systematic part of the credit spread for observed EUR-denominated bond spreads from 2009 to 2021 can be assumed higher than in the US bond market, is regime-dependent and would have direct implications on the calculation and relevance of a debt beta for business valuations. …

Condizione: Near Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. First Edition. First American edition, as far as we know. A beautiful copy regardless. 8vo. 24.5 by 17 cm. xv, [1], 438 pp. Unknown artist did the frontis, and we don't know where it was published, as not unusual with erotica from the 1920s. Dust jacket has a few closed tears and very small edge chips, but it has almost entirely survived. The book proper has one leaf 429/430 which was cut (with a paper cutter) rather carelessly resulting in two closed tears not touching any text. Otherwise a clean and tight copy.…

vellum. Condizione: Very Good. First edition thus. One of 500 unnumbered copies "for private circulation only, among friends and subscribers". Full vellum line and lettered in black, title on spine and large "O.W." on front cover. Top edge stained red and other edges uncut. Title page printed in red and black. Translated into English by Sebastian Melmoth (pseudonym of Oscar Wilde). This is now considered to be a spurious Wilde piece; the Paris bookseller who printed it, Charles Carrington, apparently invented the Wilde connection in order to spur sales. The four page foreword has Wilde (who had died two years earlier) as its subject. A tight, very good or a bit better example, spine a bit darkened and some very light soilning to the vellum. Carrington's bookshop label is affixed to the rear free endpaper.…
