The problems related to the application of multivariate GARCH models to a market with a large number of stocks are solved by restricting the form of the conditional covariance matrix. It contains one component describing the market and a second simple component to account for the remaining...

The study determines if information extracted from a big data set that includes limit order book (LOB) and Dow Jones corporate news can help to improve realised volatility forecasting for 23 NASDAQ tickers over the sample from 28 June 2007 to 17 November 2016. The out-of-sample forecasting...

This paper proposes a new model that captures the interaction between duration and magnitude of changes in asset prices, and thus provides a convenient framework to test statistically the existence of such relationship. The model is flexible and contains various well known models as special...

Several novel large volatility matrix estimation methods have been developed based on the high-frequency financial data. They often employ the approximate factor model that leads to a low-rank plus sparse structure for the integrated volatility matrix and facilitates estimation of large...

We propose uniformly valid inference on volatility with noisy high-frequency data. We assume the observed transaction price follows a continuous-time Itô-semimartingale, contaminated by a discrete-time moving-average noise process associated with the arrival of trades. We estimate the quadratic...

Conventional measurements of risk premiums are biased if the estimation models are potentially misspecified and unstable. Say, factor interactions is one of the crucial omitted specifications that standard models cannot involve. Motivated by this argument, we propose an interpretable...

We develop a new variational Bayes estimation method for large-dimensional sparse vector autoregressive models with exogenous predictors. Unlike existing Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) and variational Bayes (VB) algorithms, our approach is not based on a structural form representation of the...

Various parametric models have been developed to predict large volatility matrices, based on the approximate factor model structure. They mainly focus on the dynamics of the factor volatility with some finite high-order moment assumptions. However, the empirical studies have shown that the...

We propose a new modeling approach for the cross-section of returns. Our model, Factorization Asset Pricing Model (FAPM), allows for predictor interactions by introducing second-order observable characteristics interactions regarding the unobservable high-order loadings. If the characteristics...
