  • A dynamic panel data approach for assessing economic growth and renewable energy installations with financial insights in Europe (1995-2022)   Order a copy of this article
    by Georgios Evangelidis, Konstantinos Konstantakis, Panayotis Michaelides 
    Abstract: The relationship between economic growth and energy consumption has been extensively studied. One of Europe's strategies to achieve energy adequacy and create a better environment for its citizens is through the installation of new renewable energy sources. This study aims to determine the driving factors behind the increase in new renewable energy installations in European countries. Using economic data from European countries for the period 19952022, we examine the impact of renewable energy production on their economic growth. Additionally, we evaluate various government policies. To achieve this, we employ non-causality tests that reveal long-run cointegration among key macroeconomic indicators. The analysis indicates: 1) a significant relationship between energy consumption and economic growth; 2) indications of a causal relationship between gross domestic product (GDP) and new renewable installations, as well as between gross fixed capital formation (GFCF) and new renewable installations.
    Keywords: energy; non-causality; cointegration; policy; gross domestic product; GDP; gross fixed capital formation; GFCF.

  • Supply Chain Disruptions under The Shadow of the Russia - Ukraine War   Order a copy of this article
    by Charikleia Zisimou, Theodore Papadogonas 
    Abstract: The global supply chain has been disrupted in multiple ways recently, starting with a drop in demand due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which created significant tightness in energy, agriculture and logistics. The Russia-Ukraine war caused also significant disruptions in the global supply chain, sending shockwaves through Europe and beyond. Policies to guarantee energy affordability and availability for European businesses and households have also been urged to move quickly. Even though potential policy initiatives to support energy independence in Europe are still up for discussion, our literature review analysis shows that the significant energy shock caused by the conflict in Ukraine has largely been reflected in business financial results and may materialize over a longer period of time.
    Keywords: supply chain disruption; energy trade; agriculture; economic fluctuations; food availability.

  • Learning, Market Timing and Trading Strategies   Order a copy of this article
    by Evangelos Kastas, Dimitrios Thomakos 
    Abstract: We illustrate the effectiveness of forecast error learning in creating successful market timing strategies for trading financial assets and commodities. Using two novel methods for generating sign forecasts, and the corresponding trading signals, we make a threefold contribution: first, we showcase the importance of proper use of financial data for forecasting in a market timing context; second, we promote the use of two new methods that are highly interpretable as trading signal enhancers, and third, we provide considerable illustrative evidence that our suggested methodology works across a range of different kinds of markets.
    Keywords: commodities; financial assets; forecasting; market timing; trading strategies.
