Research demonstrates that commodity price changes exhibit a short-lived, yet robust contemporaneous effect on commodity currencies, which is mainly detectable in daily (high)-frequency data. We show that using MIxed DAta Sampling (MIDAS) models in a Bayesian setting to suitably exploit such...

In this paper we propose a parametric block wild bootstrap approach to compute density forecasts for various types of mixed-data sampling (MIDAS) regressions. First, Monte Carlo simulations show that predictive densities for the various MIDAS models derived from the block wild bootstrap approach...
