Abstract

The objective of this research is to analyze the market risks encountered by transportation sector companies listed in emerging Asian market countries, as well as the correlation of risks among these companies. Additionally, the study aims to provide a forecasting simulation for the stock prices over the next 100 days. Historical data on daily stock price changes prior to and following the Covid-19 pandemic are utilized. The research methodology employs a normal GARCH model to assess stock volatility, while market risk is determined using the expected shortfall (ES) approach. The Pearson method is employed to calculate the correlation of risks between companies. The forecasting simulation is conducted using the GARCH(1,1) approach for specification and fitting. The findings of this study reveal that transportation sector issuers have exhibited varied responses to the Covid-19 pandemic based on their specific sub-sectors. The correlation between issuers generally demonstrates low values; however, the stock markets of China and Taiwan display a strong positive correlation within the same sub-sector. Future stock price movements over the next 100 days are anticipated to align with the trend observed during the latter part of 2022.

The development of fashion is so fast, and along with the increasing use of the Instagram platform in the community, Instagram is a means of selling and promoting fashion products that are marketed to the public. The research that the authors conducted started with the high use of Instagram, the fast development of fashion brands around the world, and their own attractiveness to society. From this phenomenon, the authors have determined the purpose of this study, among others, to find out how Instagram social media marketing activities influence customer satisfaction, perceived value, and repeat purchase intentions. Meanwhile, this study proposes the effect of perceived value on customer satisfaction and repeat purchase intention. The final paper considers the impact of customer satisfaction on repeat purchase intentions. This study uses an online survey of 135 Instagram users who have made purchases online for fashion products to examine the effect of SMMA on perceived value and customer satisfaction. The results of the analysis use partial least squares with smart PLS. Consistent with previous research, only three statements in the hypothesis were accepted, SMMA had a positive effect on CS and PV, then CS had a significant effect on CI, and indirectly, the SMMA variable had a positive and significant impact on CI.
