Asset prices in general, and real house prices in particular, are often characterized by a nonlinear data-generating process which displays mildly explosive behavior in some periods. Here, we investigate the emergence of explosiveness in the dynamics of real house prices and the role played by...

Housing prices, like the prices of other speculative assets, contain a mix of both small and large changes (i.e., jumps). We apply a jump-GARCH model to monthly Case-Shiller housing price indexes of twenty cities in the U.S. during the period January 1991 through December 2011. We document the...

This study applies a Lagrange Multiplier (LM) test for the AutoRegressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity (ARCH) effects and an Exponential Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity-in-Mean (EGARCH-M) model to assess whether regional house prices in Canada exhibit financial...

Während direkte Immobilieninvestments lang Zeit als renditeträchtig bei gleichzeitig begrenztem Risiko galten, führte den Anlegern insbesondere die gegenwärtige Finanzmarktkrise vor Augen, dass auch Immobilienanlagen insbesondere in den USamerikanischen Häusermarkt mit hohen Risiken...

This study aims to achieve a two-fold research objective: first, to econometrically investigate hypothesized linkages between real estate and stock markets by fitting different classes of time-varying volatility model; second, to perform VaR-type stress testing by using the fitted asset price...

This paper analyzes the relationships between local and global securitized real estate markets, but also between securitized real estate and common stock markets. First, the volatility transmissions across markets are examined using an asymmetric t-BEKK (Baba-Engle-Kraft-Kroner) specification of...

This paper employs the two-step procedure to analyze the causality-in-mean and causality-in-variance between the housing and stock markets of the UK. The empirical findings make two key contributions. First, although previous studies have indicated a one-way causal relation from the housing...

This paper examines the changing correlations between the equity returns of Australia and the emerging equity markets and the tests the volatility, as a factor, that may cause the correlations to change over time. Linear regression estimates of Asymmetric Dynamic Conditional Correlation Model,...

This study evaluates the response stock market volatility to foreign equity investments. Specifically, the study examines how foreign portfolio investment and foreign direct equity investment influence stock market volatility in Nigeria using monthly data from January 2007 to July 2017. Results...
