Vicky Henderson (University of Warwick) will speak at the Probability seminar.
In this talk, we will present a simple model of asset sales under dynamic regret. We will use this to motivate our empirical study of trading decisions using a large discount brokerage dataset. Our focus is to test how regret induced by not selling a stock at its maximum price shapes the propensity to sell. We undertake a number of descriptive analyses and more formal analysis via proportional hazard modelling. Joint work with Julia Brettschneider (Warwick) and Giovanni Burro (Heidelberg).
