    Alibaba and the more than forty speculators. From the «Open Sesame» to «technology-company bubble bursts in Wall Street»
    (Elsevier España S.L.U., 2016-01-16) Sotelo González, Joaquín; González García, Joaquín
    Less than 15 years after the technology bubble burst of the late 20th century (dotcom/Tech) that led to a deep economic downturn for the Tech sector in 2001, there are now fears that today's markets seem to have forgotten the hard learned lessons from this not too distant disaster. After careful analysis of several reports published by the Securities and Exchange Commission and a detailed monitoring of the Tech Industry outcomes found in the general and specialised media over the last 5 years, a study is presented outlining the current situation of the Tech securities market. Considering the latest strong growth of the abovementioned market, it is not difficult to see that overheating has remerged, and the debate is now on whether the results this time will be different from those of the recent past.

    Integration, financial contagion and securities risk: Empirical evidence for the period 1995-2016
    (Elsevier España S.L.U., 2016-10-10) Piffaut, Pedro V.; Rey Miró, Damià
    Contagion is generally defined as the correlation between markets above what is already implicit in the fundamentals of the underlying assets. However, there is considerable disagreement on definitions of the foundations and the mechanisms that link these asset returns. The present study aims to capture and detect the spread between the main stock indices in the United States, Europe and Asia markets.
