Liberalization of energy sector and the ensuing creation of new markets for carbon emissions have increasingly triggered a need for understanding the volatility and correlation structure between carbon, energy and financial markets. This paper documents the existence of structural changes in...

Motivated by repeated price spikes and crashes over the last decade, we investigate whether the rapidly growing market shares of futures speculators have destabilized commodity spot prices. We approximate conditional volatility and regress it on expected and unexpected speculative open interest....

With the increasing integration of wind and photovoltaic power in the whole European power system, there is a longing for detecting how to trade energy in the ever-changing intraday market from electric power industries. The intraday trading becomes even more relevant in the wake of the European...

In this paper we estimate the skewness of the unconditional distribution of energy returns and test its statistical significance. We compare the performance of traditional and robust tests for symmetry with those based on the implied unconditional skewness in a TGARCH model with Gram-Charlier...

We examine the impact of oil price and oil price volatility on US illiquidity premiums (return on illiquid-minus-liquid stocks), using the US Oil Fund options implied volatility OVX index. We use daily data from 2007 to 2018, taking into account the structural break in June 2009 and controlling...

In this paper, we propose a commodity pricing model that extends Gibson-Schwartz two-factor model to incorporate the effect of linear relations among commodity prices, which include co-integration under certain conditions. We derive futures and call option pricing formulae, and show that unlike...

This study examines the nexus between precious metals (gold and silver) and oil (crude oil and heating oil) realized volatilities introducing a novel quantile extended joint connectedness framework combining quantile vector autoregression (White et al., 2015) with the extended joint...

The purpose of the paper is to test the hypothesis about asymmetric price transmission between the fuel markets. The distribution chain is considered at three levels: the European wholesale market, the domestic wholesale market, and the domestic retail market. It is shown that between the...

This paper analyses the adjustment of gasoline prices in response to shocks in crude oil prices. We show that the nature of the dynamic relationship between crude oil and gasoline prices changes in February 1999. For the pre-February 1999 and the post-February 1999 sample we estimate a Threshold...

This paper analyses the attributes and the significance of the roughness of oil market volatility. We employ unspanned stochastic volatility models driven by rough Brownian motions that yield semi-analytical prices for futures options entailing efficient calibration applications. By performing a...
