The papers underneath MAR500.

Seven working papers establish the substrate, the canonicalisation methodology, the variance decomposition, and the empirical findings. Three are published to SSRN. Three are published to Zenodo with persistent DOIs. The seventh sits as a working draft pending temporal data from the next monthly seal.
