I added an appendix to "Quantitative Analysis of Non-Linear High Entropy Economic Systems VI" that describes an empirical methodology of determining the frequency rate of long term rare economic catastrophies. It includes the effects of leptokurtosis, (which took down LTCM, Enron, and the dot-com stocks.) The frequency rate of catastrophies is required when the Poisson distribution is used to calculate the chance of a long term rare catastrophe happening in the mid/short term.
