In the literature, there is a wide range of discounts associated with foreclosures. Comparisons across studies are difficult as they use different methodologies across large areas over different time periods. We employ a consistent methodology across space and time. We find modest discounts, within the range of typical transaction costs, in all but the highest priced market segment. Higher priced segments could explain prior findings of substantial discounts. We find that discounts are time-varying, with discounts increasing with market distress. A one-size-fits-all approach is not appropriate when estimating distressed transaction discounts across large market areas or under changing market conditions.

Continuing education has become a large market with participation by industrial firms, educational institutions and firms in the business of education. Both education and industry should develop strategies for their involvement in continuing education. Both should commit to the concept of lifelong learning as essential for their success. Both should consider cooperative projects as one of the most cost-effective ways of providing continuing education. Both should improve communication with each other to improve our capability to identify appropriate joint projects and to improve our management of them.

Abstract In this paper we analyze the existence of stable matchings in a two-sided large market in which workers are assigned to firms. The market has a continuum of workers while the set of firms is countably infinite. We show that, under certain reasonable assumptions on the preference correspondences, stable matchings not only exist but are also Pareto optimal.

This chapter examines how the individuals working at Scenic View Farm, along with the fifteen other farmers and farm workers interviewed in this book, ended up pursuing jobs in agriculture. The chapter situates these farmers in comparison to national averages in terms of age, education, and political ideology. Lifestyle concerns dominated their career decisions, and they overwhelmingly wanted a career that would keep them out of the office and in the outdoors. For them, farming was the best way to achieve the lifestyle they desired. Most also wanted to farm organically, or at least sustainably, fearing that pesticides would prevent their full enjoyment of the lifestyle. Some drew on themes of agrarianism to frame their work as a solution to the problems of modern life. The chapter also examines how the diverse lifestyle concerns of these individuals shaped concrete farming and business practices, such as whether to pursue wholesale arrangements with large market actors like Whole Foods. As a whole, these farmers made choices to maintain practices and identities through which they could live lives consonant with their visions of good, honest work.

Market Equilibria

Computing market equilibria is an important practical problem for market design, for example, in fair division of items. However, computing equilibria requires large amounts of information, often the valuation of every buyer for every item, and computing power. In “Computing Large Market Equilibria Using Abstractions,” the authors study abstraction methods for ameliorating these issues. The basic abstraction idea is as follows. First, construct a coarsened abstraction of a given market, then solve for the equilibrium in the abstraction, and finally, lift the prices and allocations back to the original market. The authors show theoretical guarantees on the solution quality obtained via this approach. Then, two abstraction methods of interest for practitioners are introduced: (1) filling in unknown valuations using techniques from matrix completion and (2) reducing the problem size by aggregating groups of buyers/items into smaller numbers of representative buyers/items and solving for equilibrium in this coarsened market.

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to investigate the organising of social innovation in a large market-based social enterprises from the perspective of dynamic capabilities and social transformation.Design/methodology/approachThis paper analyses the process by which Desjardins Group launched the Desjardins Environment Fund as the first investment fund in North America to integrate environmental screening. It uses longitudinal single case analysis and a theoretical framework based on Teece’s three dynamic capabilities.FindingsResults show that dynamic capabilities can be conceived as stages in the process of social innovation. Sensing refers to the capability to identify a societal demand for social transformation. Seizing capability is about shaping societal demand into a commercial offer. Reconfiguring concerns organisational innovation to integrate actual and new knowledge through innovative routines. Microprocesses of both path dependency and path building are in action at each of the three stages.Practical implicationsThis paper shows that managing dynamic capabilities is central to social innovation in the context of a large social business and provides genuine managerial input via an analysis of the microprocesses at work in the social innovation process.Originality/valueThis paper contributes to the operationalization of Teece’s dynamic capabilities model. In mobilising a framework in the field of management of innovation, it contributes to the understanding of the process of social innovation and develops the organisational mechanism for multiscalarity of social innovation as a condition for social transformation.

This chapter examines how to predict stock market crashes and other large market events as well as the limitations of forecasting, in particular in terms of the horizon of visibility and expected precision. Several case studies are presented in detail, with a careful count of successes and failures. After providing an overview of the nature of predictions, the chapter explains how to develop and interpret statistical tests of log-periodicity. It then considers the concept of an “antibubble,” using as an example the Japanese collapse from the beginning of 1990 to the present. It also describes the first guidelines for prediction, a hierarchy of prediction schemes that includes the simple power law, and the statistical significance of the forward predictions.
