A tradeoff between forecast accuracy and the length of an estimation period always exists in forecasting. Longer estimation periods are argued to be less efficient, however, using the forecast encompassing and accuracy test, this study discusses the importance of considering the overall...

The traditional continuous and smooth models, like the GARCH model, may fail to capture extreme returns volatility. Therefore, this study applies the bivariate poisson (CBP)-GARCH model to study jump dynamics in price volatility of crude oil and heating oil during the past 20 years. The...

Because relatively few studies have examined the behavior among different types of traders in the options market, this investigation conducts an empirical study examining the impact of trader type on price volatility in the TXO market. It has been more than 10 years since the TXO market started...

This study extends the GARCH with autoregressive conditional jump intensity in Generalized Error Distribution (GARJI-GED) model to identify the fundamental characteristics of Nikkei 225 index and futures. Furthermore, this study applied the Granger causality test to investigate whether an...

A B S T R A C TThe International Monetary Fund (IMF) created the Special Drawing Rights (SDRs) with 16-currencies in 1969 as a reserve asset and a unit of account. In 1980, the IMF modified the composition of and weights to calculate the exchange rate on 5-currency basket. This paper mainly...

This investigation adopts the Correlated Bivariate Poisson GARCH with Jump and Diffusion Volatility Spillover (CBP-GARCH-JDSV) model to determine whether the Qualified Foreign Institutional Investors (QFIIs) deregulation in Taiwanese stock markets influences normal and abnormal information...

Using event study methodology, we investigate whether bilateral investment protection treaties afford protection to foreign investors. Examining arbitral decisions for firms from six countries shows that firms that received awards from arbitrators gained in market value by as much as 3%. Per...
