The purpose of this study is to compare the differences in disclosure quality between Chinese and American companies listed in the United States. Despite the fact that Chinese companies listed on a U.S. stock exchange are required to adhere to the same disclosure and financial reporting regulations as U.S. companies listed on that exchange, variations between the two persist. Consequently, this study seeks to explore and compare the specific disparities in disclosure quality between Chinese companies listed in the U.S. and American companies. The "use of proceeds" section of the initial IPO prospectus for both American and Chinese companies will be employed to assess the specificity of disclosure quality. Statistical data sampling and analysis will be conducted to compare their specificity of disclosure. Finally, a T-test will be employed to compare and contrast the results. Based on our research findings, it can be concluded that Chinese companies listed in the U.S. exhibit a significantly higher overall quality of information disclosure compared to domestically listed U.S. companies.

In order to obtain a higher long-term average return from a portfolio, investors need to increase the level of risks that cannot be dispersed by diversification in the portfolio, and the asset pricing model can help investors to judge how much risk is reasonable to take. This paper will introduce the development process of several asset pricing models, and integrate and overview the applicability of the above several asset pricing models in China’s capital market by combining the relevant research of domestic and foreign scholars over the years based on existing literature and data analysis results. Finally, it can be found that due to its strict prerequisites, Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) has the lowest applicability in the Chinese stock market, while the Five-Factor Model and the pricing model based on beta decomposition both have good applicability, but it is hard to say which one is the best one to adapt to the Chinese stock market at present.

The study focuses on the phenomenon of initial public offering (IPO) underpricing in China's Science and Technology Innovation Board (STAR market). The study employs the stochastic frontier model to analyze IPO underpricing and decomposes it into two components: primary market underpricing and secondary market premium. Additionally, the research investigates the impact of research and development (R&D) investment on IPO underpricing. The empirical analysis is based on a sample of 480 companies listed on the STAR market between July 2019 and January 2023. The results reveal that IPO underpricing on the STAR market is substantial, with an average underpricing rate of 131.81%. The primary market underpricing component contributes 4.24% to the overall underpricing rate, while the secondary market premium accounts for the remaining 95.76%. Furthermore, the study explores various factors that influence the secondary market premium using multiple linear regression analysis. The findings indicate that variables such as issuance volume, underwriting fee, turnover rate, and R&D investment significantly impact the secondary market premium.

The development of China's securities market has been more than 30 years, among which China's A-share market has become one of the largest stock markets in the world, and has a good development trend. Since the new era, the digital economy has become an indispensable part of people's lives. Cloud computing related conceptual stocks have received increasing attention from the capital market since 2019. Therefore, this paper classifies the cloud computing stocks and gives some suggestions to investors. 47 cloud computing stocks were randomly selected and their basic data were downloaded from the RESSET database. Through sorting and constructing, two categories of market indicators and fundamental indicators are selected, with a total of 17 variables. In order to reduce the dimensionality of variables, five common factors were first extracted using Factor Analysis and named as price factor, transaction factor, debt paying factor, growth factor, and profit factor according to their characteristics. Using these five factors to carry out K-means clustering, the selected stocks are divided into mature stocks and ordinary stocks.

The study examines the impact of the rise of the Federal Funds Rate (FFR) on the stock price returns and volatility of the United States of America. The study extracted the stock price from January 3, 2022, to June 16, 2023, from the Investing finance terminal, including the Standard and Poor’s (S&P 500), US Dollar Index, and the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations (NASDAQ) Index. This study uses the Vector Autoregression (VAR) model and the ARMA-GARCH model to evaluate the stock returns and daily return volatility, respectively. The two models inspect the effect of the US Dollar index on both the NASDAQ and S&P 500. The result of this study suggests that the rise in the Federal Funds Rate would cause the stock market price to decline for a relatively long period. However, the volatility of the daily return remains stable. By studying the effect of the rise in the Federal Funds Rate, policymakers can change the stock prices by adjusting the Federal Funds Rate based on the market’s needs.

Since the Industrial Revolution, global development and progress have caused serious environmental damage and resource consumption. It is not in line with the concept of sustainable development to measure the economic level solely by GDP. Therefore, GGDP was introduced as an alternative. To evaluate the global impact of GGDP replacing GDP, we have constructed a GGDP multiple linear regression model. This model takes into account GGDP in different countries at different times and incorporates multiple influencing factors. Additionally, we introduce the grey prediction model to demonstrate that GGDP can serve as a suitable measure of economic development level. This supports the idea that promoting GGDP is applicable on a global scale. Furthermore, we introduce five natural resource indicators and conduct a Spearman correlation analysis between GGDP, GDP, and these five natural indicators. To illustrate this, we take the United States, a representative developed country, as an example.

The 2007-2009 financial crisis, considered the worst crisis in human history since the Great Depression of the 1930s was not expected to end the period of the Great Moderation when financial and economic stability lasted from the mid-1980s to 2007. Although more than a decade has passed since the crisis, the analysis of the causes and consequences of the 2007-2009 financial crisis remains relevant for today's global economy, which is affected by both COVID-19 and the war in Ukraine. The crisis came as a surprise to almost everyone, but its roots were already in the U.S. financial system a decade ago. The explosion of the housing market in the United States at the beginning of the 21st century attracted a large number of banks and financial institutions to invest. The immediate cause of the financial crisis was the Federal Reserve's monetary policy, inflation in subprime mortgages, and the abuse of credit default swaps. The financial crisis also triggered a large number of banks to go bankrupt due to insolvency or default, and after the collapse of Lehman Brothers, the US government had to use a large number of emergency funds to bail out the market. These bailouts largely saved these too-big-to-fail companies and had no significant effect on the years of high unemployment.

With the sudden rise of various sports events in recent years, the sports industry has gradually come into the limelight, and how to grasp the economic benefits as well as the external impacts brought by sports events will become a problem that must be faced. Based on the impact of large-scale sports events on the local economy and the stock market, this paper studies the various impacts of sports events on society through data collection and comparative analysis and focuses on the negative impacts that are easy to be ignored. Among them, in the stock market, through collecting the stock market fluctuations during the recent Olympic Games, it is estimated that the Olympic Games will disperse the stock market, and further lead to the stock market downturn, and weak rebound. In terms of the local economy, sports events can promote development, whether in terms of social infrastructure construction or nominal GDP. However, the effect of sports on urban economic development is not as great as that of paper data, because the money spent on sports in people's leisure time is nothing more than the replacement of other entertainment, which cannot bring about additional consumption. The conclusion shows that the development of the sports industry is accompanied by certain losses in other aspects, so it is necessary to balance the development plan reasonably in order to maximize the social benefits.

In accordance with the double carbon target proposed in 2020: to achieve "carbon peak" by 2030 and "carbon neutrality" by 2060. The background of this research is how to optimize the industrial structure and guide low-carbon consumption through energy production and consumption restructuring. In the post-epidemic era, a series of changes in people's consumption concepts and behaviour have taken place, which made positive or negative impacts on low-carbon consumption. The research focus here is to adopt the survey analysis method, collecting primary analysis data through data collection, questionnaires, and interviews. This paper focuses on the validation and practice of this research method. Researches have found that the current direct energy consumption behaviours of residents concentrated in the household scenario and the travel scenario. The low-carbon nature of these scenarios is influenced by two main decisions: the choice of consumption mode at the first consumption stage and the choice of consumption mode at the ongoing consumption stage. The factors that influence these decisions vary from stage to stage, and different strategies can help guide residents' low-carbon consumption behaviour.
