Tse (1998) proposes a model which combines the fractionally integrated GARCH formulation of Baillie, Bollerslev and Mikkelsen (1996) with the asymmetric power ARCH specification of Ding, Granger and Engle (1993). This paper analyzes the applicability of a multivariate constant conditional...

The scaling properties of two alternative fractal models recently proposed to characterize the dynamics of stock market prices are compared. The former is the Multifractal Model of Asset Return (MMAR) introduced in 1997 by Mandelbrot, Calvet and Fisher in three companion papers. The latter is...

Through the use of regime-switching models, recent empirical research has essentially demonstrated that the dynamics of stock returns depend on the state of one stock market. The present paper extends this analytical framework by allowing the dynamics of returns to depend on the joint-states of...

Fat tails of q-Gaussian distributions of daily log-leverage-returns of 520 North American industrial firms reported by Katz and Tian (2013) imply a significantly higher credit risk at short time-horizons and/or large initial distances to the default barrier than forecasted by traditional...

This study examines the impact of volatility shifts on volatility persistence for three major sector indices of … volatility shifts which are determined by using iterated cumulative sums of squares (ICSS) and modified ICSS algorithms such as … Kappa-1 (κ-1) and Kappa-2 (κ-2). The results indicate that the inclusion of volatility shifts in the model substantially …

Using well-known GARCH models for density prediction of daily S&P 500 and Nikkei 225 index returns, a comparison is provided between frequentist and Bayesian estimation. No significant difference is found between the qualities of the forecasts of the whole density, whereas the Bayesian approach...
