new methods to estimate measures of conditional skewness and kurtosis defined in terms of conditional quantiles, analogous … to the unconditional quantile-based measures of skewness and kurtosis studied by Kim and White (2004). We investigate the … performance of our methods by simulation, and we apply MQ-CAViaR to study conditional skewness and kurtosis of S&P 500 daily …
