When Uncertainty Blows in the Orchard: Comovementand the Equilibrium Volatility Risk Premia
Buraschi, Andrea; Trojani, Fabio; Vedolin, Andrea - Swiss National Centre of Competence in Research North … - 2010
In a Lucas orchard with heterogeneous beliefs, we study the link between market-wide uncertainty, difference of opinionsand co-movement of stock returns. We show that this link plays an important role in explaining the dynamics of equilibriumvolatility and correlation risk premia. In our...

Libor Market Model with Regime-Switching Volatility
Elliott, Robert; Valchev, Stoyan - Institut für Schweizerisches Bankwesen <Zürich> - 2004
This paper provides regime-switching stochastic volatility extensions of the LIBOR market model. First, the … instantaneous forward LIBOR volatility is modulated by a continuous time homogeneous Markov chain. In a second parameterization, the … volatility is modelled by a square root process with a regime-switching reference level. We obtain analytical solutions for the …

Jumps in option prices and their determinants: Real-time evidence from the E-mini S&P 500 option market
Kapetanios, George; Neumann, Michael; Skiadopoulos, George - 2014
We study the real-time characteristics and drivers of jumps in option prices. To this end, we employ high frequency data from the 24-hour E-mini S&P 500 options market. We find that option prices do not jump simultaneously across strikes and maturities and are uncorrelated with jumps in the...

The contribution of transaction costs to expected stock returns: A novel measure
Hiraki, Kazuhiro; Skiadopoulos, George - 2023
We document that a theoretically founded, real-time, and easy-to-implement option-based measure, termed synthetic-stock difference (SSD), accurately estimates the part of stock's expected return arising from stock's transaction costs. We calculate SSD for U.S. optionable stocks. SSD can be more...

Agricultural commodity futures
Gulati, Ashok; Chatterjee, Tirtha; Hussain, Siraj - 2017
Agricultural futures markets can provide useful information to farmers for taking more informed planting decisions for their crops, which are forward looking, and thus reduce their market risk. But in India, agri-futures have gone through a roller-coaster ride since their mega opening in 2003,...
