This paper describes the return patterns of six ASEAN markets (Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam) using an autoregressive exponential GARCH-in mean model, also known as AR-EGARCH(1, 1)-M. Estimating the model for each market using daily data from August 2000...

We introduce the concept of virtual volatility. This simple but new measure shows how to quantify the uncertainty in … the forecast of the drift component of a random walk. The virtual volatility also is a useful tool in understanding the … portfolio. Finally, we briefly discuss the potential practical effect of the virtual volatility on an investor asset allocation …

-reversion in volatility, those findings have been interpreted as evidence for overreaction in the options market. Focusing on a … risk-neutral volatility dynamics are substantially more persistent than the physical one. As a result, the empirical … observation of a strong reaction of longterm volatility would be consistent with perfectly rational behavior. We additionally show …

In this paper we investigate trading with optimal mean reverting portfolios subject to cardinality constraints. First, we identify the parameters of the underlying VAR(1) model of asset prices and then the quantities of the corresponding Ornstein-Uhlenbeck (OU) process are estimated by pattern...
