We propose a new nonparametric test to identify mutually exciting jumps in high frequency data. We derive the asymptotic properties of the test statistics and show that the tests have good size and reasonable power in finite sample cases. Using our mutual excitation tests, we empirically...

We develop a finite-sample procedure to test the beta-pricing representation of linear factor pricing models that is applicable even if the number of test assets is greater than the length of the time series. Our distribution-free framework leaves open the possibility of unknown forms of...

We propose an early warning model for predicting the likelihood of a financial stress event for a given future time, and examine whether credit plays an important role in the model as a non-linear propagator of shocks. This propagation takes the form of a threshold regression in which a regime...

We show that the Truncated Realized Variance (TRV) of a semimartingale asset price converges to zero when observations are contaminated by microstructure noises. Under the additive iid noise assumption, a central limit theorem is also proved. In consequence it is possible to construct a feasible...

While each financial crisis has its own characteristics, there is now widespread recognition that crises arising from sources such as financial speculation and excessive credit creation do inflict harm on the real economy. Detecting speculative market conditions and ballooning credit risk in...

Traditional measures of dependence in time series are typically based on correlations or periodograms. These are adequate in many circumstances but, in others, especially when trying to assess market linkages (e.g., financial contagion), might be inappropriate. In the present paper we propose...

The impact of scheduled releases of macroeconomic variables on the dynamics of financial markets has always attracted a great deal of academic attention in efforts to quantify market responses in terms of volatility and jumps. We investigate whether the occurrence of market reaction due to...

We examine the relationship between Islamic and conventional stock market returns to see if Islamic financial markets provide portfolio diversification benefits and safe havens during turbulent times. Using daily data from January 1996 through September 2020 we consider conventional emerging...
