Short Interests in Real Estate Investment Trusts
No full textWe examine short interests in equity real estate investment trusts (REITs) between 1994 and 2001. Our results show that only high levels (the 90th percentile) of short interest are associated with significant negative REIT returns as the bearish content of short interest may have been mitigated by the favorable risk characteristics of real estate securities. In addition, the significant negative relationship between short interest and REIT returns applies only to REITs with poor performance. The result implies that the bearish sentiment of short interest could also be mitigated by good REIT managers in a real estate market that is informationally inefficient. The results of a logistic regression model further show that the short selling of REIT shares can be explained by firm-specific factors such as operating efficiency, fundamental value, and liquidity. Given that short interest is not indiscriminately associated with negative REIT returns and that the short positions are firm-specific, the results are consistent with implications that short interests in REITs represent attempts to make short-term profits rather than general bearishness regarding real estate investments.short interest, real estate investment trusts (REITs)

Emperor Yung-chêｎg and "Ta-i Chüeh-mi Lu"(大義覺迷錄)
No full textThe Ta-i Chueh-mi Lu was published by Emperor Yung-cheng, who became much concerned with the Tseng Ching (曽静) affair. The Tseng Ching affair was motivated by the thought of Lu Liu-liang (呂留良) on the "difference between the Chinese and the Barbarians" and "Kingly Goverment." What was Lu Liu-liang's thought? How Tseng Ching became influenced by his thought? The Tseng China affair was also due to the rivalries between the cliques within the Ch'ing court. What was Emperor Yung-cheng's attitude toward the rivalries? The author tries to show that the Ta-i Chueh-mi Lu, which was written for the sake of guiding the people's thought, was at the same time intended to give Yung-cheng's view on these rivalries
Chen Yung-Fa, Zhongguo gongchan geming qishi nian
No full textChen Yung-Fa, the author of an authoritative study of the Chinese communist revolution, Making Revolution , provides us here with an excellent overview, covering seventy years of that revolution, from the early beginnings of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in the 1920s until the 1990s.

On Yao Chi Heng's "姚際恆 "Wei Chung-yung shuo"偽中庸", his Refutation of the Traditional Belief in the "Chung-yung"
No full textYao Chi Heng lived a studious life in the period of the Ching dynasty 清朝 and contributed not a little to substantiate Chinese philosoply as a learned member of the school of Classic-Reference; though, while he lived, he made little conspicuous movement among his contemporaries. He entertained some consistent doubts upon, and so refuted, the truth of the traditional belief in the "Chung-yung" 中庸 being the direct issue of Confucianism, which was wholly recognized by Cheng , Chu, Wang 程・朱・王 and so forth through the age of Sung and Ming 宋・明 Yao Chi Heng, on the contrary set up a new and original view quite opposite to those of his predecessors with regard to ethical and philosophical-thoughts contained in the "Chung-yung". The exposition of his view makes up his "Wei Chung-yung Shuo". So he, not only gave a solid foundation for his refutation, but also has furnished an indispensable material to show the general trend of study and learning in the transition period of the earlier part of the Cling dynasty. One of the most interesting results of his researches bring us to the' view that the "Chung-yung" contains in it the idea of both Laotzeism and Buddhism 老仏思想. He examined the relation of the one to the other from the evolutional point of view, stage after stage in the development of ethical and philosophical thoughts. This deserves our attention as a characteristic of his original attitude, because no other instance of the similar case has ever been seen since that time. The present thesis is intended to show what his observation on the "Chung-yung" was and to make some criticism on it at the same time. The author deems it most important that his research of the interrelation of Laotzeic ,and Buddhistic ideas the more heightened the value the "Chung-yung", by his epoch-making statements no less than it gave an inevitablestimulus to the rise and development of the new school of Confucianism centering in the study, of the "Chung-Yung" as the reverse effect of his revolutional statement.Article信州大學紀要 1(1): 1-14(1951)departmental bulletin pape
