This study extends the GARCH with autoregressive conditional jump intensity in Generalized Error Distribution (GARJI-GED) model to identify the fundamental characteristics of Nikkei 225 index and futures. Furthermore, this study applied the Granger causality test to investigate whether an...

This study examines whether nonlinear adjustment of short-term deviations impacts US real estate market returns by applying an exponential smooth transition threshold error-correction model with Generalized Auto Regressive Conditional Heteroscedasticity (GARCH) (ESTECM-GARCH). Empirical results...

This study investigates how foreign investors impact the Taiwanese stock market using the AutoRegressive Jump Intensity (ARJI) model proposed by Chan and Maheu (2002), in which stock volatility in Taiwan is classified as either normal or abnormal and the net purchases of foreign investors,...

This investigation adopts the Correlated Bivariate Poisson GARCH with Jump and Diffusion Volatility Spillover (CBP-GARCH-JDSV) model to determine whether the Qualified Foreign Institutional Investors (QFIIs) deregulation in Taiwanese stock markets influences normal and abnormal information...

This paper employs three Value-at-Risk (VaR) models (GARJI, ARJI and asymmetric GARCH) to compare the performance of 1-day-ahead VaR estimates. The influences of price jumps and asymmetric information on the performance of VaR are investigated. Two stock indices (Dow Jones and S&P 500) and one...

This paper investigates the impact of CSRC allowing domestic residents to invest in the B-share stock market. An ARJI model is used to analyse the jump dynamics process during the pre- and post-event periods and impulse response functions are employed to demonstrate the volatility transmissions...

In this paper we derive a new mean-risk hedge ratio based on the concept of Value at Risk (VaR). The proposed zero-VaR hedge ratio has an analytical solution and it converges to the MV hedge ratio under a pure martingale process or normality. A bivariate constant correlation GARCH(1,1) model...

In spite of increasing numbers of countries having established renewable energy development mechanisms for carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions reduction, the CO2 emissions problem continues to worsen along with the growth of the world economy. This leads us to examine the threshold effect of the...

This investigation provides evidence and identifies two important structural changes in the risk characteristics of real estate investment trusts (REITs), namely, the 1993 tax reform and the inclusion of REITs in the mainstream S&P indices in 2001. Using daily data from 1989 to 2008, this study...
