Electricity price time series usually exhibit some form of nonstationarity, corresponding to long-term behavior, one or more periodic components as well as dependence on calendar effects. As a result, modeling electricity prices requires accounting for both long-term and periodic components. In...

This paper examines the effect of structural breaks on the spot–futures oil prices relationship. We explore the impact of structural breaks on four critical issues, including cointegrating relationships, market efficiency under the expectation hypothesis and the no arbitrage rule, causalities,...

In this paper, we explore the strategy on hedging crude oil using refined product. We develop a regime switching asymmetric DCC (RS-ADCC) model by taking into account both of regime switching and asymmetry in correlations. Our out-of-sample findings indicate that RS-ADCC displays greater hedging...
