Abstract Using recently proposed estimators of the variation of positive and negative returns (“realized semivariances”), and high frequency data for the S&P 500 index and 105 individual stocks, this paper sheds new light on the predictability of equity price volatility. We show that future...

This study explores the predictive power of new estimators of the equity variance risk premium and conditional variance for future excess stock market returns, economic activity, and financial instability, both during and after the last global financial crisis. These estimators are obtained from...

In this paper, we estimate, model and forecast Realized Range Volatility, a realized measure and estimator of the quadratic variation of financial prices. This quantity was early introduced in the literature and it is based on the high-low range observed at high frequency during the day. We...

This paper proposes a Near Explosive Random-Coefficient autoregressive model for asset pricing which accommodates both the fundamental asset value and the recurrent presence of autonomous deviations or bubbles. Such a process can be stationary with or without fat tails, unit-root nonstationary...

We simulate a simplified version of the price process including bubbles and crashes proposed in Kreuser and Sornette (2018). The price process is defined as a geometric random walk combined with jumps modelled by separate, discrete distributions associated with positive (and negative) bubbles....

We propose a state-space model (SSM) for commodity prices that combines the competitive storage model with a stochastic trend. This approach fits into the economic rationality of storage decisions, and adds to previous deterministic trend specifications of the storage model. Parameters are...

Turkish Abstract: Çalışmada, İMKB 100 endeksinin 1995-2004 dönemine ait günlük ve haftalık verileri kullanılarak, finansal verilerde sıkça rastlanan volatilite kümelenmesi, asimetrik fiyat hareketleri, kaldıraç etkisi ve kalın kuyruk özellikleri araştırılmış, volatiliteyi...

Turkish Abstract: Çalışmada, 15 adet simetrik ve asimetrik GARCH modeli ile İMKB Bileşik, Mali, Hizmet ve Sınai endekslerindeki volatilite modellenerek, örneklem dışı öngörülerde bulunulmakta ve öngörülerin güvenilirliği ele alınmaktadır. Bu amaçla öncelikle 1997-2004...
