![]() Still, you could conceivably use his distributional assumptions to come up with a "badness of fit" metric that tells you when to throw the BS playbook out the window based on recent volatility trends. Maybe such an equation remains to be found, but I personally doubt that it would have much of any predictive power because Cauchy-Lorentz distributions have infinite variance. The only major weakness is that there's no equation you can use to estimate the value of something from the assumptions that he gives, which would make automated trading pretty much impossible to do. the misbehavior of both Enron and WorldCom. Overall, his analysis seemed to be spot on. bankrupt when the bubbles in their real estate and stock markets im- ploded at the beginning of the 1990s. The outcome was similar, in the sense that the hypothesis of a Gaussian distribution for the data was astronomically unlikely. If I recall correctly, he uses data from the S&P 500 to test the likelihood of a Gaussian distributional assumption, and I ran the same tests on comparable data from the Dow. At the end, I suggest that Mandelbrot introduced the `discontinuous turn' in financial modelling of extreme values.I took it upon myself one summer to verify the distributional claims he makes about markets using data that he didn't mention in the book. I show that, although the PP and the EP can be traced through separate lines in the academic fields, their shared the use of tempered stable processes and derive from their reliance on Mandelbrot's view. In the 1990s a new competitor appeared, called econophysics programme (EP). The PP began in the 1970s with explicitly renouncing the stable hypothesis. Mandelbrot was one of the founding thinkers of what has alternately been called Chaos and complexity science. The RP initiated huge controversies in the academic field because of the stable hypothesis. Next I adopt an historical perspective to present to the two programmes since 1960. At first, I use Sato's classification to contrast the two programmes. I term these two programmes the radical programme (RP) and the pragmatic programme (PP).

Er schaut für uns in die Zukunft und sagt, wie die Weltwirtschaft aus der Krise herauskommen kann und draußen bleiben wird. At least two distinct programmes using these processes are currently established in financial modelling: the first Mandelbrot programme based on stable Lévy processes and the alternative non-stable Lévy processes based approach.
