In this paper, the vector autoregressive model is fitted to find out the causal relationship among realized volatility, the number of transactions and volume with the intraday time intervals of 10, 20 and 30 minutes. To understand the impact of shock to the market on specific variables, a...

A new class of stochastic covariance models based on Wishart distribution is proposed. Three categories of dynamic correlation models are introduced depending on how the time-varying covariance matrix is formulated and whether or not it is a latent variable. A stochastic covariance filter is...

A new multivariate stochastic volatility model is developed in this paper. The main feature of this model is to allow threshold asymmetry in a factor covariance structure. The new model provides a parsimonious characterization of volatility and correlation asymmetry in response to market news....

In this paper, we study the extreme dependence between the markets in Hong Kong, Shanghai, Shenzhen, Taiwan and Singapore. The tail dependence coefficient (TDC), which measures how likely financial returns move together in extreme market conditions, is modeled dynamically using the Multivariate...

We develop an efficient way to select the best subset autoregressive model with exogenous variables and generalized autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity errors.One main feature of our method is to select important autoregressive and exogenous variables, and at the same time to estimate...

This paper investigates inference and volatility forecasting using a Markov switching heteroscedastic model with a fat-tailed error distribution to analyze asymmetric effects on both the conditional mean and conditional volatility of financial time series. The motivation for extending the Markov...

To capture mean and variance asymmetries and time-varying volatility in financial time series, we generalize the threshold stochastic volatility (THSV) model and incorporate a heavy-tailed error distribution. Unlike existing stochastic volatility models, this model simultaneously accounts for...
