Two recent nonlinear causality tests are used to examine the causal linkages across increasingly important international equity and commodity markets. We show that nonlinear causality is more appealing when asymmetric patterns are accounted for. The results are crucial to hedging and portfolio...

This study examines the risk spillovers between energy futures prices and Europe-based carbon futures contracts. We use a Markov regime-switching dynamic correlation, generalized autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity (MSDCC- GARCH) model in order to capture the time variations and...

In this article, we examine the recent trends in dependence structure between the fast-growing commodity markets and the stock markets in China in order to draw implications for portfolio investment. We address this issue by using copula functions that allow for measuring both average and tail...
