Firstly, the cyclical components of the real GDP and real bank loans were determined using time series. A cointegration analysis and a vector error-correction model with quarterly data were used for period of 1987:01-2013:03. The results of cointegration analysis indicate that there is a single stable long-run equilibrium relationship between real bank loans and macroeconomic variables. The response of bank loans to GDP shocks is positive. Bank loans have pro-cyclical character in Turkey.展开更多

It concerns first a comparison of geomagnetic activity occurrences according to both classification methods;and second the geomagnetic effect on foF2 diurnal variation profiles as defined for the equatorial latitudes. The occurrences of the different disturbed geomagnetic activities (recurrent activity (RA), shock activity (SA) and fluctuant activity (FA)) according to both classifications (ancient classification (AC) and new classification (NC)) have been studied at Dakar ionosonde station (Lat: 14.8°N;Long: 342.6°E). Regarding both classifications, the RA occurs more during the decreasing phase. And it’s observed that the RA occurs the most during the increasing phase for the AC and during the minimum phase for the NC.

The decou..."Decoupling" refers to the divergence of business cycles among different countries, while "re-coupling" corresponds to the convergence or the synchronization of business cycles among different countries. The decoupling debate is popular in the field of economics, especially after global financial crisis. As trade integration increased among Asian countries, business cycle synchronization among these countries was expected to increase through trade transmission. The aim of this study is to discover whether there has been decoupling or convergence of business cycles through various trade channels. However, theoretically, increased trade can lead to business cycle synchronization either rising or falling. Inter-industry trade resulting in higher specification will induce less synchronized business cycles, while intra-industry trade could lead to increased business cycle synchronization. Thus, it is important to distinguish between intra- and inter-industry trade flows. Both correlation and dynamic factor models are utilized to study the evolution of global business cycle linkages. Results indicate that the world factor has become less important in explaining macroeconomic fluctuations from sub-period 1961-1984 to sub-period 1985-2007, while regional factors do not play an important role in explaining aggregate volatility, with the expectation of consumption. Overall, the explanatory power of country factors increases. Domestic consumption and domestic investment variances are more driven by country and idiosyncratic factors than by the world factor, contrary to the output growth fluctuations. Regional factors and country factors also play a more prominent role in explaining gross import fluctuations than in explaining gross exports. Results cast doubt on the strong forms of both the decoupling and the re-coupling hypothesis.展开更多

The parameter identification and model estimation was conducted using the Markov Chain Monte Carlo method. We then conducted an empirical study of the provincial business fluctuations in China(31 Chinese provinces are considered except Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan due to the data unavailability), which were sampled from January 2000 to December 2015. Our results indicated that these provinces could be clustered into four regions: leading, coincident, lagging, and overshooting. In comparison with traditional geographical divisions, this novel clustering into four regions enabled the regional business cycle synchronization to be more accurately captured. Within the four regional clusters it was possible to identify substantial heterogeneities among regional business cycle fluctuations, especially during the periods of the 2008 financial crisis and the ‘four-trillion economic stimulus plan'.展开更多

The novel concept of cloud computing gives a understanding of SOA in which Information Technology assets are provided as services that are extra flexible, inexpensive and striking to commercial activities. In this paper, we concisely study developments in concept of cloud computing, and debate the advantages of using cloud services for commercial activities and trade-offs that they have to consider. Further we presented a layered architecture for online business, and then we presented a conceptual architecture for complete online business working atmosphere. Moreover, we discuss the prospects and research experiments that are ahead of us in realizing the technical components of this conceptual architecture. We conclude by giving the outlook and impact of cloud services on both large and small businesses.展开更多

文摘This study examines econometric relationships between bank lending and the business cycle in Turkey. Firstly, the cyclical components of the real GDP and real bank loans were determined using time series. A cointegration analysis and a vector error-correction model with quarterly data were used for period of 1987:01-2013:03. The results of cointegration analysis indicate that there is a single stable long-run equilibrium relationship between real bank loans and macroeconomic variables. The response of bank loans to GDP shocks is positive. Bank loans have pro-cyclical character in Turkey.

文摘Classification,superimposed evolution and sedimentary filling of prototype basins are analyzed based on the Wilson cycle principle of plate theory,by dissecting the evolution history of 483 sedimentary basins around the world since the Pre-cambrian,combined with the three stress environments of tension,compression and shear.It is found that plate tectonic evo-lution controls the superimposed development process and petroleum-bearing conditions of the prototype basins in three as-pects:first,more than 85%of the sedimentary basins in the world are developed from the superimposed development of two or more prototype basins;second,the superposition evolution process of the prototype basin takes Wilson cycle as the cycle and cycles in a fixed trajectory repeatedly.In each stage of a cycle,a specific type of prototype basin can be formed;third,each prototype basin can form a unique tectonic-sedimentary system,which determines its unique source,reservoir,cap conditions etc.For hydrocarbon accumulation,the later superimposed prototype basin can change the oil and gas accumulation conditions of the earlier prototype basin,and may form new petroleum systems.Based on this,by defining the type of a current basin as its prototype basin formed by the latest plate tectonic movement,14 types of prototype basins can be classified in the world,namely,intracontinental growth rift,intr acontinental aborted rift,intercontinental rift,passive continental margin,interior craton,trench,fore-arc rift,ba ck-arc rift,back-arc de pression,back-arc small ocean,peri pheral foreland,back-arc foreland,strike-slip pull-apart,and strike-slip flexural basins.The classification scheme can ensure the uniqueness of the types of in di-vidual sedimentary basin,and make it possible to predict their oil and gas potential scientifically through analogy.

文摘In reference to the method of the Conference Board,the coincident indexes for China are constructed from a sample period between January 1990 and May 2012 and by51 chosen component indicators.The resulting coincident indexes have higher correlations with gross domestic product(GDP) growth rates than the China Economic Monitoring and Analysis Center(CEMAC) coincident index over the sample period between February2005 and May 2012.The peaks and troughs of the growth rates in several indicators are identified.The total number of peaks and troughs in the resulting coincident index is the same with the CEMAC coincident index.Unfortunately,these troughs don't signify recessions in the Chinese economy because the financial system has not seen a negative growth rate over the specific sample periods.The impacts of the Southeast Asian Financial Crisis and subprime mortgage crisis on the business cycle could be dated via a smoother index from HP filtering to the coincident index.
文摘Based on modem financial markets becoming more and more perfect, in company stock, bonds, represented by the investment banking has permeated all aspects of life. Business valuation is the core of value management.However, companies in different stages of development have a certain stage characteristics, and therefore from the features and characteristics of the different stages of business valuation methods and the factors that affect the value of different businesses created to start, can provide investors assess the business value of new ideas.

文摘This study explains the role of economic uncertainty as a bridge between business cycles and investors’herding behavior.Starting with a conventional stochastic differential equation representing the evolution of stock returns,we provide a simple theoretical model and empirically demonstrate it.Specifically,the growth rate of gross domestic product and the power law exponent are used as proxies for business cycles and herding behavior,respectively.We find stronger herding behavior during recessions than during booms.We attribute this to economic uncertainty,which leads to strong behavioral bias in the stock market.These findings are consistent with the predictions of the quantum model.
文摘Since Reform and Opening, the international business activities in China have become more and more frequent,hence,the importance of business English goes without saying. However, due to its lexicons is complexity and specificity, it's really a struggle matter for business English learners to memorize these lexicons. Through analyzing features of business English lexicons and establishing appropriate semantic field, business English learners could memorize these lexicons more effectively.

文摘Accurate drought assessment demands thoughtful consideration of drought definition first of all.Drought is commonly defined as a prolonged period of below-average precipitation leading to water shortages that impact ecosystems,agriculture,and human societies.However,meteorologists,hydrologists,and agronomists often use different criteria to define drought,depending on their specific focus areas.For example,hydrologists define drought according to water deficits in some components of the hydrological cycle(such as precipitation,soil moisture,river flow,and groundwater)or its impacts on the level of services provided to public water supply,irrigation,or hydropower demands(Tate and Gustard,2000).Differences in drought definitions may result in great uncertainties in drought assessment(Satoh et al.,2021).We cannot expect the existence of any workable generalized objective definition of drought(Lloyd-Hughes,2014).
