Given that there are both continuous and discontinuous components in the movement of asset prices, existing asset pricing models that assume only continuous price movements should be revised. In this paper, we explore the features of jumps, which are discontinuous movements, by examining Bitcoin pricing. First, we identify jumps in the Bitcoin price on a daily basis, applying a non-parametric methodology and then break down the Bitcoin total rate of return into a jump rate of return and a continuous rate of return. In our empirical analysis, price jumps turn out to be independent of volatility. Moreover, the jumps in the Bitcoin price do not appear at regular intervals; rather, they tend to be concentrated in clusters during special periods, implying that once an economic crisis occurs, the crisis will last for a long time due to contagion effects and the economy will take a considerable amount of time to recover fully. Further, the contribution of the jump rate of return to the total rate of return of the Bitcoin price is lower than the contribution of the continuous return, implying that the pursuit of sustainable returns rather than large but temporary returns will improve the total rate of return over the long term. Finally, more jumps are observed when trading volume is lower, implying that market illiquidity drives discontinuous movement in asset prices. Overall, the features of jump risk are like two sides of the same coin and jump risks are expected to have a significant effect on asset pricing, suggesting that consideration of jumps is essential for risk management as well as asset pricing.

Short-term assets are enterprise‘s resources that are involved in its business within the frames of one reporting period and their value is fully carried over to the finished product. In their nature, these are the working capital that can be classified as enterprise‘s liquid assets. The question of short-term assets‘ turnover is topical at all stages and phases of the enterprise‘s development due to the following more important reasons: 1) The acceleration of short-term assets‘ turnover results in the release of resources that can be used in accordance with the decisions made by the enterprise‘s management, and the deceleration of turnover results in difficulties for the business due to shortage of working capital. 2) The acceleration of the turnover of this working capital results in increasing the level of total rate of return of assets, and vice versa – the total rate of return of assets decreases as a result of the deceleration of short-term assets‘ turnover. 3) Turnover of working capital is a factor affecting the enterprise‘s liquidity. 4) The efficient control of the objective dependence between the rate of return and the liquidity suggests and requires analyzing and evaluating the turnover of enterprise‘s short-term assets. This publication studies the turnover of short-term assets, and its subject covers the methodology for analysis of the turnover of these resources of the enterprise. The aim of this study is to present a complex methodology for analysis of short-term assets‘ turnover, and the acceleration or decelerations of their turnover are analyzed from two perspectives. On one hand, they are analyzed as a resultative indicator by identifying the strength and direction of impact of direct factors. On the other hand, acceleration or deceleration of working capital‘s turnover is analyzed as a factor affecting the dynamics of other important business indicators – assets- and liquidity-based rate of return. For the purposes of achieving the aim of this publication the following tasks are defined: 1) The information provision of the analysis is clarified. 2) The indicators for analysis of short-term assets‘ turnover are determined. 3) It is identified whether the turnover of enterprise‘s short-term assets is accelerated or decelerated – as a whole, by groups and by types of assets. 4) The amount of released and the additionally involved short-term assets, respectively, as a result of acceleration, respectively, deceleration of their turnover, is determined. 5) The impact of direct factors on acceleration, respectively, deceleration of short-term assets‘ turnover is identified. 6) The methodologies for analysis of the impact of changes of short-term assets‘ turnover on the total rate of return of assets and on liquidity are determined. Methodologies for analysis of short-term assets‘ turnover are useful both for external and internal users of information. Based on the resultative analytical information, external users build their strategy to establish business contacts with the enterprise. Internal users are able to carry out comprehensive analysis of short-term assets‘ turnover and to make justified and proper decisions for the management of the working capital and the business of the enterprise in operative and strategic aspect.

SummaryIn this study, 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) caused a dose- dependent fall in the circulating platelet count suggesting that 5-HT receptors are activated in rat platelets to cause platelet adhesion and aggregation. When low doses of adenosine diphosphate (ADP) were simultaneously injected with 5-HT, there was a significant potentiation of the responses to ADR Ketanserin significantly reduced the potentiated responses. When higher doses of ADP were infused with bolus injections of 5-HT there was no potentiation and ketanserin did not reduce these responses. Ketanserin did not inhibit the collagen-induced fall in circulating platelet count, but did significantly increase the rate of return to the basal platelet count compared with control. 5-HT did not cause a fall in platelet count in guinea-pigs

The paper develops a framework to explore the risk disclosure practices of 29 Islamic banks operating in the Gulf Cooperation Council countries over the period of 2013-2016 and examines the potential factors which might be affecting risk disclosure. To analyze the level of risk disclosure, the paper develops a composite index by using the content analysis technique. We also employ OLS technique to examine factors affecting Islamic banks’ risk disclosure. The results indicate a very high difference in risk disclosure between countries. Only two countries, the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain, have a higher level of risk disclosure. The findings also suggest that reporting on some risk disclosure types especially displaced commercial risk and rate of return risk is very low. The regression results show that Islamic banks with a stronger set of corporate governance mechanisms and an active Shariah board appear to disclose more risk information. Other factors that influence risk disclosure practices of Islamic banks are bank size, leverage, cross-border listings and the level of political and civil regression. The study recommends that Islamic banks have to revise their communication strategies and provide more risk information related to rate of return risk and display commercial risk. In addition, GCC regulators should establish risk disclosure regulations which have to become mandatory for all Islamic banks. To the best of our knowledge, the paper provides the first analysis related to the determinants of corporate risk disclosures of Islamic banks in the Arab Gulf region.
