The results of the normality test using the P-plot chart were carried out using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov analysis with the condition that Asmp. Sig.(2-tailed)> 0.05, it means that the normal distribution is not disturbed, whereas if the value of Asmp. Sig.(2-tailed) < 0.05, it means that the normal distribution is disturbed. And showing the results of the Kolmogrov-Smirnov statistical analysis in the table it can be seen that the Asymp Sig (2 tailed) value is 0.200 greater than 0.05.

Abstract

The paper estimates the multiplier effect of public spending (total government spending) on economic growth (RGDP) from 44 years long time-series database of macro-economic variables from 1974-75 to 2018-19 (Panchayat Regime (1975-1990), Democracy I: Ceremonial Monarch (1991-2005) and Democracy II: Federal (2006-2019)) through structure vector auto-regressive (SVAR) model with tests. The paper provides the above three political regimes based on relationships between public spending and economic growth and the multiplier of public spending on economic growth. As a result, in the three different regimes, their nature, behavior, and dynamics are stationary. Except for real regular spending (RRS) in Democracy I: Ceremonial Monarch (1991-2005) and real capital spending (RCS) in Democracy II: Federal (2006-2019), all coefficient values of SVAR estimate shows a significantly positive relationship between the government spending and economic growth. It indicates a positive multiplier effect of public spending; recurrent spending and capital spending are positive to economic growth, except for GRRE in Democracy I: Ceremonial Monarch (1991-2005) and RCS in Democracy II: Federal (2006-2019). Likewise, in the different political regimes, higher multiplier of total public spending, regular public spending and capital public spending in the Panchayat Regime (1975-1990) are better than successive democratic regimes so-called the people’s centric political regimes: Democracy I: Ceremonial Monarch (1991-2005) and Democracy II: Federal (2006-2019). Besides, except for the Panchayat Regime (1975-1990), the multiplier value of public spending; recurrent spending, and capital spending are lower in Democracy I: Ceremonial Monarch (1991-2005) and then Democracy II: Federal (2006-2019). It indicates the low efficiency of the government spending and budgetary system. Therefore, the government should improve the efficiency of public spending, the ratio of the capital spending, and private investment for improving the higher multiplier variable in long run.

Abstract

Shares is one of investment with moderate to high level of risk profile and return rate, and is a legal ownership proof of a company (Ltd). To obtain an optimum return with possible low risk, price of shares can be predicted or analyzed via fundamental or technical analysis. One of the most popular technical analysis is by employing computer algorithms as a device to help making decision. Long short term memory (LSTM), as a deep improvement of recurrent neural networks (RNN), is a commonly used method to predict shares price. BUMI, as one of shares in the energy sector, is the most concerned shares due to the geopolitical conflict in Europe. This research aims to predict BUMI shares price using LSTM by considering three parameters, i.e. number of hidden layers, epoch, and learning rate. Linear regression is used to obtained optimum values of each parameter whichs further combined to yield the best performance of the algorithm. Based on the analysis, the combination of minimum and optimum parameters results in the best performance by RMSE value.
