This paper proposes a robust framework for disentangling undiversifiable common jumps within the realized covariance matrix. Simultaneous jumps detected in our empirical study are strongly related to major financial and economic news, and their occurrence raises correlation and persistence among...

This paper comprehensively investigates the role of realized jumps detected from high frequency data in predicting future volatility from both statistical and economic perspectives. Using seven major jump tests, we show that separating jumps from diffusion improves volatility forecasting both...
