Crude Cottonseed Oil

This study is conducted to estimate the effect of both tariff and non-tariff barriers on global crude cottonseed oil, refined cottonseed, and cottonseed oil. This effect is estimated for a sample of developed and developing countries using data over the period 2005 to 2015. The study employed three maximum residue limits (MRL) indices, namely Li and Beghin, Actual Heterogeneous Index (AHI) and Heterogeneous Index (HI) as well as two estimation techniques, Poisson and Ordinary Least Square method (OLS). Marginal effects are obtained by using the Poisson technique. Estimated parameters such as distance, common border, PTAs, are found significant and according to prior expectations. The role of tariffs is more substantial in the oilseed trade compared to the trade in cottonseed crude oil. It is also found that the estimated elasticity by using Poisson technique is highly elastic as compared to OLS method. However, the aggregation of commodities at a higher level, as in the case of cottonseed oil, shows that the effect of the tariff on trade becomes statistically insignificant. Further, cottonseed crude oil is a major commodity affected by tariffs, particularly in the case of trade between North-North and North-South countries. Finally, the effect of tariffs on cottonseed refined oil trade was found insignificant.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine the behavior of the stock market returns in the different days of the week and different months of the year in accordance with the Islamic calendar. Further, the study estimates the risk-adjusted returns to test the performance of the indices during the Ramadan and non-Ramadan days. Finally, the study investigates the impact of Ramadan on the returns and the volatility of the stock market indices in India. Design/methodology/approach Initially, the study applies the Ordinary Least Square method to test the day-of-the-week and the month-of-the-year effect of the common and Shariah indices. Next, the study employs the risk-adjusted measurement to examine the underperformance and over-performance of the indices for both the periods. Finally, the study estimates the GARCH (1,1) and GJR-GARCH (1,1) models to observe the impact of Ramadan on the returns and the volatility of the Shariah indices in India. Findings The study finds that an average return of the indices during the Ramadan days are higher than non-Ramadan days. Further, the average returns of the Shariah indices are significantly higher on Wednesday than other days of the week. In addition, the highest and significant mean returns and mean risk-adjusted returns of the indices during the Ramadan days are observed. Finally, the study finds an evidence of the Ramadan effect on the returns and volatility of the indices in India. Originality/value The study observes evidence that the Ramadan effect influences the Shariah indices, but not the common indices in the stock market of the non-Muslim countries. It indicates that the Ramadan creates the positive mood and emotions in the investors buying and selling activities. The study suggests that investors can buy the shares before Ramadan period and sell them during the Ramadan days to get an abnormal return in the emerging markets.
