Abstract: In this paper, we analyze the stock of Nanjing Panda Electronics Co Ltd for the 44-year period, from May 2, 1996, to October 9, 2009, a total of 3200 trading days. Using the Box-counting dimension method, we find that the financial data have different power law exponents in the plot for the number of box and diameter of box, which indicates the multifractality exist in the time series. In order to investigate the latent properties in the data, the width and maximum of the singular spectrum are calculated. The results show the strong degree of multifractality in the time series.

Abstract: We propose a new method called the multi-dependent Hurst exponent to investigate the correlation properties of the nonstationary time series. The method is validated with the artificial series including both short-range correlated data and long-range correlated data. The results indicate that the multi-dependent Hurst exponents fluctuate around the a-priori known correlation exponent H. Application to traffic time series is also presented, and comparison is made between the artificial time series and traffic time series.
