This paper delineates the simultaneous impact of non-anticipated information on mean and variance of the intraday return process by including appropriate variables accounting for the news flow into both the mean and the variance function. This allows us to differentiate between the consistent...

An important claim of Bayesian learning and a standard assumption in price discovery models is that the strength of the price impact of unanticipated information depends on the precision of the news. In this paper, we test for this assumption by analyzing intra-day price responses of CBOT T-bond...

We analyze how markets adjust to new information when the reliability of news is uncertain and has to be estimated itself. We propose a Bayesian learning model where market participants receive fundamental information along with noisy estimates of news' precision. It is shown that the efficiency...

We study the impact of the arrival of macroeconomic news on the informational andnoise-driven components in high-frequency quote processes and their conditional variances.Bid and ask returns are decomposed into a common ("ecient return") factorand two market-side-specic components capturing...

Bayesian learning provides a core concept of information processing in financialmarkets. Typically it is assumed that market participants perfectly know the qual-ity of released news. However, in practice, news’ precision is rarely disclosed. Therefore, we extend standard Bayesian learning...
