We investigate the role of crude oil spot and futures prices in the process of price discovery by using a cost-of-carry model with an endogenous convenience yield and daily data over the period from January 1990 to December 2008. We provide evidence that futures markets play a more important...

This paper examines the effect of different dimensions of uncertainty on expectations of WTI crude oil futures momentum traders at a daily level. We consider two concepts of uncertainty and two momentum trading indicators based on technical analysis. In addition, we also use wavelet techniques...

The paper features an analysis of causal relations between the VIX, S&P500, and the realised volatility (RV) of the S&P500 sampled at 5 minute intervals, plus the application of an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model to forecast the VIX. Causal relations are analysed using the recently...

This article proposes a simple and intuitive framework to combine a discrete volatility forecast series produced by a GARCH model with the binomial tree methodology to price path-dependent options. The framework exploits the premise of the path integral methodology of combining the terminal...

The evolution of the yields of different maturities is related and can be described by a reduced number of commom latent factors. Multifactor interest rate models of the finance literature, common factor models of the time series literature and others use this property. Each model has advantages...

This paper proposes the use of the Brownian distance correlation for feature selection and for conducting a lead-lag analysis of energy time series. Brownian distance correlation determines relationships similar to those identified by the linear Granger causality test, and it also uncovers...
