Intraday high-frequency data of stock returns exhibit not only typical characteristics (e.g., volatility clustering and the leverage effect) but also a cyclical pattern of return volatility that is known as intraday seasonality. In this paper, we extend the stochastic volatility (SV) model for...

We explore the performance of mixed-frequency predictive regressions for stock returns from the perspective of a Bayesian investor. We develop a constrained parameter learning approach for sequential estimation allowing for belief revisions. Empirically, we find that mixed-frequency models...

We provide a formulation of stochastic volatility (SV) based on Gaussian process regression (GPR). Forecasting volatility out-of-sample, both simulation and empirical analyses show that our GPR-based stochastic volatility (GPSV) model clearly outperforms SV and GARCH benchmarks, especially at...
