Contrary to the common wisdom that asset prices are barely possible to forecast, we show that that high and low prices of equity shares are largely predictable. We propose to model them using a simple implementation of a fractional vector autoregressive model with error correction (FVECM). This...

We propose a non-structural method to retrieve the risk-neutral density (RND) impliedby options on the CBOE Volatility Index (VIX). The methodology is based on orthogonalpolynomial expansions around a kernel density and yields the RND of the underlyingasset without the need for a parametric...

Multivariate GARCH models are in principle able to accommodate the features of the dynamic conditional correlations processes, although with the drawback, when the number of financial returns series considered increases, that the parameterizations entail too many parameters.In general, the...
