TLDR
The authors discuss three significant new views on the economics of exchange rates - Rudiger Dornbusch's overshooting model, Jacob Frenkel's and Michael Mussa's asset market variants, and Pentti Kouri's current account/portfolio approach.Abstract:
This volume grew out of a National Bureau of Economic Research conference on exchange rates held in Bellagio, Italy, in 1982. In it, the world's most respected international monetary economists discuss three significant new views on the economics of exchange rates - Rudiger Dornbusch's overshooting model, Jacob Frenkel's and Michael Mussa's asset market variants, and Pentti Kouri's current account/portfolio approach. Their papers test these views with evidence from empirical studies and analyze a number of exchange rate policies in use today, including those of the European Monetary System.read more

Linear, non-linear and essential foreign exchange rate prediction with simple technical trading rules
TL;DR: Investigating the predictability of spot foreign exchange rate returns from past buy-sell signals of the simple technical trading rules by using the nearest neighbors and the feedforward network regressions indicates that simple technical rules provide significant forecast improvements for the current returns over the random walk model.
