Estimation tail parameter for Geometric Brownian motion
Abstract
Right-tailed distributions are very important in many applications. There are many studies estimating the tail index. In this paper, we will estimate the tail parameter using the three (the Direct, Bootstrap and Double Bootstrap) methods. Our aim is to illustrate the best way to estimate the -stable with using simulation and real data for the daily Iraqi financial market dataset.
