Recent literature has focuses on realized volatility models to predict financial risk. This paper studies the benefit of explicitly modeling jumps in this class of models for value at risk (VaR) prediction. Several popular realized volatility models are compared in terms of their VaR forecasting...

The focus of this article is using dynamic correlation models for the calculation of minimum variance hedge ratios between pairs of assets. Finding an optimal hedge requires not only knowledge of the variability of both assets, but also of the co-movement between the two assets. For this...

The paper examines the volatility predictive ability of the CBOE crude oil volatility index (OVX), GARCH and Stochastic Volatility Models in the crude oil market. Specifically, the dynamics of two major crude oil pricing benchmarks - Brent in Europe and WTI in America are compared. OVX index is...

The asset allocation is a practical problem for most institutional and private investors, who routinely deal with a wide variety of stocks, bonds and options. Evidence suggests that both the expected return and the volatility vary over time. Many studies find that the expected returns have...

A well-documented finding is that explicitly using jumps cannot efficiently enhance the predictability of crude oil price volatility. To address this issue, we find a phenomenon, "momentum of jumps" (MoJ), that the predictive ability of the jump component is persistent when forecasting the oil...

We explore the performance of mixed-frequency predictive regressions for stock returns from the perspective of a Bayesian investor. We develop a constrained parameter learning approach for sequential estimation allowing for belief revisions. Empirically, we find that mixed-frequency models...

Stock and oil relationship is usually time-varying and depends on the current economic conditions. In this study, we propose a new Dynamic Stochastic Mixed data frequency sampling (DSM) copula model, that decomposes the stock-oil relationship into a short-run dynamic stochastic component and a...

We propose a new multivariate model to capture the presence of jumps in mean and conditional variance in the returns of oil prices and companies in this sector. The model is based on the presence of common factors associated with jumps in mean and variance, as it performs a decomposition of the...

Modelling covariance structures is known to suffer from the curse of dimensionality. In order to avoid this problem for forecasting, the authors propose a new factor multivariate stochastic volatility (fMSV) model for realized covariance measures that accommodates asymmetry and long memory....

derived by the application of two popular machine learning algorithms, namely the k-means and Gaussian mixture model (GMM …). Moreover, by comparing the Bayesian information criterion (BIC) scores, the GMM approach allows for the selection of the number … usefulness of the proposed discretization approaches. In particular, GMM discretization is well suited for high-frequency returns …
