In this paper we investigate exponential smoothing (ES) predictors for the weights of high-dimensional realized global minimum variance portfolios (GMVP) which only depend on the realized covariance matrix of risky financial assets. We compare direct ES predictions of realized GMVP proportions...

We propose a methodology for filtering, smoothing and assessing parameter and filtering uncertainty in misspecified score-driven models. Our technique is based on a general representation of the well-known Kalman filter and smoother recursions for linear Gaussian models in terms of the score of...

I develop a new method for approximating and estimating nonlinear, non-Gaussian state space models. I show that any such model can be well approximated by a discrete-state Markov process and estimated using techniques developed in Hamilton (1989). Through Monte Carlo simulations, I demonstrate...

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...

This paper introduces a unified multivariate overnight GARCH-Ito model for volatility matrix estimation and prediction both in the low- and high-dimensional set-up. To account for whole-day market dynamics in the financial market, the proposed model has two different instantaneous volatility...

There has been considerable advance in understanding the properties of sparse regularization procedures in high-dimensional models. In time series context, it is mostly restricted to Gaussian autoregressions or mixing sequences. We study oracle properties of LASSO estimation of weakly sparse...

We consider inference for predictive regressions with multiple predictors. Extant tests for predictability may perform unsatisfactorily and tend to discover spurious predictability as the number of predictors increases. We propose a battery of new instrumental-variables based tests which involve...

Measuring and displaying uncertainty around path-forecasts, i.e. forecasts made in period T about the expected trajectory of a random variable in periods T+1 to T+H is a key ingredient for decision making under uncertainty. The probabilistic assessment about the set of possible trajectories that...

There are a number of econometrics tools to deal with the different types of situations in which cointegration can appear: I(1), I(2), seasonal, polyno- mial, etc. There are also different kinds of Vector Error Correction models related to these situations. The authors propose a unified...
