Analysing causality among oil prices and, in general, among financial and economic variables is of central relevance in applied economics studies. The recent contribution of Lu et al. (2014) proposes a novel test for causality- the DCC-MGARCH Hong test. We show that the critical values of the...

Dynamic economic models make predictions about impulse responses that characterize how macroeconomic processes respond to alternative shocks over different horizons. From the perspective of asset pricing, impulse responses quantify the exposure of macroeconomic processes and other cash flows to...

We develop a network-based vector autoregressive approach to uncover the interactions amongfinancial assets by integrating multiple realized measures based on high-frequency data. Undera restricted parameter structure, our approach allows the capture of cross-sectional and time ependencies...

Campbell and Shiller average 10 years of real S&P 500 earnings to construct its Cyclically Adjusted P/E ratio, or CAPE, which they then use to forecast its future 10-year returns. In essence, Campbell and Shiller kill two birds with one large stone - they use the 10-year average to reduce noise...

A Hidden Markov Model (HMM) is used to model the VIX (the Cboe Volatility Index). A 4- state Gaussian mixture is fitted to the VIX price history from 1990 to 2022. Using a growing window of training data, the price of the S&P500 is predicted and two trading algorithms are presented, based on the...

We build on two contributions that have found conditions for large dimensional networks or systems to generate long memory in their individual components, and provide a multivariate methodology for modeling and forecasting series displaying long range dependence. We model long memory properties...

We formulate a price discovery model in which the price discovery measures vary either locally, say, for instance, at intervals of 30 minutes or at a daily frequency. Given the empirical and theoretical evidence that price discovery measures relate to highly persistent fundamentals, we adopt a...

A review of the general state-space modeling framework. The discussion focuses heavily on the three prediction problems of forecasting, filtering, and smoothing within the state- space context. Numerous examples are provided detailing special cases of the state-space model and its use in solving...
