This article explores the relationships between several forecasts for the volatility built from multi-scale linear ARCH processes, and linear market models for the forward variance. This shows that the structures of the forecast equations are identical, but with different dependencies on the forecast horizon. The process equations for the forward variance are induced by the process equations for an ARCH model, but postulated in a market model. In the ARCH case, they are different from the usual diffusive type. The conceptual differences between both approaches and their implication for volatility forecasts are analysed. The volatility forecast is compared with the realized volatility (the volatility that will occur between date t and t + ΔT), and the implied volatility (corresponding to an at-the-money option with expiry at t + ΔT). For the ARCH forecasts, the parameters are set a priori. An empirical analysis across multiple time horizons ΔT shows that a forecast provided by an I-GARCH(1) process (one time scale) does not capture correctly the dynamics of the realized volatility. An I-GARCH(2) process (two time scales, similar to GARCH(1,1)) is better, while a long-memory LM-ARCH process (multiple time scales) replicates correctly the dynamics of the implied and realized volatilities and delivers consistently good forecasts for the realized volatility. 相似文献

Volatility is an important element for various financial instruments owing to its ability to measure the risk and reward value of a given financial asset. Owing to its importance, forecasting volatility has become a critical task in financial forecasting. In this paper, we propose a suite of hybrid models for forecasting volatility of crude oil under different forecasting horizons. Specifically, we combine the parameters of generalized autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity (GARCH) and Glosten–Jagannathan–Runkle (GJR)-GARCH with long short-term memory (LSTM) to create three new forecasting models named GARCH–LSTM, GJR-LSTM, and GARCH-GJRGARCH LSTM in order to forecast crude oil volatility of West Texas Intermediate on different forecasting horizons and compare their performance with the classical volatility forecasting models. Specifically, we compare the performances against existing methodologies of forecasting volatility such as GARCH and found that the proposed hybrid models improve upon the forecasting accuracy of Crude Oil: West Texas Intermediate under various forecasting horizons and perform better than GARCH and GJR-GARCH, with GG–LSTM performing the best of the three proposed models at 7-, 14-, and 21-day-ahead forecasts in terms of heteroscedasticity-adjusted mean square error and heteroscedasticity-adjusted mean absolute error, with significance testing conducted through the model confidence set showing that GG–LSTM is a strong contender for forecasting crude oil volatility under different forecasting regimes and rolling-window schemes. The contribution of the paper is that it enhances the forecasting ability of crude oil futures volatility, which is essential for trading, hedging, and purposes of arbitrage, and that the proposed model dwells upon existing literature and enhances the forecasting accuracy of crude oil volatility by fusing a neural network model with multiple econometric models. 相似文献

It is widely accepted that some of the most accurate Value-at-Risk (VaR) estimates are based on an appropriately specified GARCH process. But when the forecast horizon is greater than the frequency of the GARCH model, such predictions have typically required time-consuming simulations of the aggregated returns distributions. This paper shows that fast, quasi-analytic GARCH VaR calculations can be based on new formulae for the first four moments of aggregated GARCH returns. Our extensive empirical study compares the Cornish–Fisher expansion with the Johnson SU distribution for fitting distributions to analytic moments of normal and Student t, symmetric and asymmetric (GJR) GARCH processes to returns data on different financial assets, for the purpose of deriving accurate GARCH VaR forecasts over multiple horizons and significance levels. 相似文献

The present study compares the performance of the long memory FIGARCH model, with that of the short memory GARCH specification, in the forecasting of multi-period value-at-risk (VaR) and expected shortfall (ES) across 20 stock indices worldwide. The dataset is composed of daily data covering the period from 1989 to 2009. The research addresses the question of whether or not accounting for long memory in the conditional variance specification improves the accuracy of the VaR and ES forecasts produced, particularly for longer time horizons. Accounting for fractional integration in the conditional variance model does not appear to improve the accuracy of the VaR forecasts for the 1-day-ahead, 10-day-ahead and 20-day-ahead forecasting horizons relative to the short memory GARCH specification. Additionally, the results suggest that underestimation of the true VaR figure becomes less prevalent as the forecasting horizon increases. Furthermore, the GARCH model has a lower quadratic loss between actual returns and ES forecasts, for the majority of the indices considered for the 10-day and 20-day forecasting horizons. Therefore, a long memory volatility model compared to a short memory GARCH model does not appear to improve the VaR and ES forecasting accuracy, even for longer forecasting horizons. Finally, the rolling-sampled estimated FIGARCH parameters change less smoothly over time compared to the GARCH models. Hence, the parameters' time-variant characteristic cannot be entirely due to the news information arrival process of the market; a portion must be due to the FIGARCH modelling process itself. 相似文献

We introduce extensions of the Realized Exponential GARCH model (REGARCH) that capture the evident high persistence typically observed in measures of financial market volatility in a tractable fashion. The extensions decompose conditional variance into a short-term and a long-term component. The latter utilizes mixed-data sampling or a heterogeneous autoregressive structure, avoiding parameter proliferation otherwise incurred by using the classical ARMA structures embedded in the REGARCH. The proposed models are dynamically complete, facilitating multi-period forecasting. A thorough empirical investigation with an exchange-traded fund that tracks the S&P500 Index and 20 individual stocks shows that our models better capture the dependency structure of volatility. This leads to substantial improvements in empirical fit and predictive ability at both short and long horizons relative to the original REGARCH. A volatility-timing trading strategy shows that capturing volatility persistence yields substantial utility gains for a mean–variance investor at longer investment horizons. 相似文献

This study extends the GARCH pricing tree in Ritchken and Trevor (J Financ 54:366–402, 1999) by incorporating an additional jump process to develop a lattice model to value options. The GARCH-jump model can capture the behavior of asset prices more appropriately given its consistency with abundant empirical findings that discontinuities in the sample path of financial asset prices still being found even allowing for autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity. With our lattice model, it shows that both the GARCH and jump effects in the GARCH-jump model are negative for near-the-money options, while positive for in-the-money and out-of-the-money options. In addition, even when the GARCH model is considered, the jump process impedes the early exercise and thus reduces the percentage of the early exercise premium of American options, particularly for shorter-term horizons. Moreover, the interaction between the GARCH and jump processes can raise the percentage proportions of the early exercise premiums for shorter-term horizons, whereas this effect weakens when the time to maturity increases. 相似文献

The estimation of medium-term market risk dictated by limited data availability, is a challenging issue of concern amongst academics and practitioners. This paper addresses the issue by exploiting the concepts of volatility and quantile scaling in order to determine the best method for extrapolating medium-term risk forecasts from high frequency data. Additionally, market risk model selection is investigated for a new dataset on ocean tanker freight rates, which refer to the income of the capital good — tanker vessels. Certain idiosyncrasies inherent in the very competitive shipping freight rate markets, such as excessive volatility, cyclicality of returns and the medium-term investment horizons – found in few other markets – make these issues challenging. Findings indicate that medium-term risk exposures can be estimated accurately by using an empirical scaling law which outperforms the conventional scaling laws of the square and tail index root of time. Regarding the market risk model selection for short-term investment horizons, findings contradict most studies on conventional financial assets: interestingly, freight rate market risk quantification favors simpler specifications, such as the GARCH and the historical simulation models. 相似文献

Inferring future volatility from the information in implied volatility in Eurodollar options: a new approach 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
We study the information content of implied volatility fromseveral volatility specifications of the Heath-Jarrow-Morton(1992) (HJM) models relative to popular historical volatilitymodels in the Eurodollar options market. The implied volatilityfrom the HJM models explains much of the variation of realizedinterest rate volatility over both daily and monthly horizons.The implied volatility dominates the GARCH terms, the Glostenet al. (1993) type asymmetric volatility terms, and the interestrate level. However, it cannot explain that the impact of interestrate shocks on the volatility is lower when interest rates arelow than when they are high. 相似文献

This study compares the performance of the ISD, the GARCH (1,1) , the historical volatility estimates and of two lagged trading volume measures for predicting the Swiss Stock Market Index's (SMI) volatility. The ISD has a superior daily informational content than the GARCH (1,1) estimate and retains unbiased but decreasing explanatory power over up to 20 days ahead horizons. Mean and spread daily volume measures play a significant correcting role when forecasting stock market volatility over daily and longer intervals respectively and clearly dominate the GARCH (1,1) forecasts. Their significance emphasises heterogeneous horizon traders' influence on the SMI volatility time series properties 相似文献

In this paper, we develop modeling tools to forecast Value-at-Risk and volatility with investment horizons of less than one day. We quantify the market risk based on the study at a 30-min time horizon using modified GARCH models. The evaluation of intraday market risk can be useful to market participants (day traders and market makers) involved in frequent trading. As expected, the volatility features a significant intraday seasonality, which motivates us to include the intraday seasonal indexes in the GARCH models. We also incorporate realized variance (RV) and time-varying degrees of freedom in the GARCH models to capture more intraday information on the volatile market. The intrinsic tail risk index is introduced to assist with understanding the inherent risk level in each trading time interval. The proposed models are evaluated based on their forecasting performance of one-period-ahead volatility and Intraday Value-at-Risk (IVaR) with application to the 30 constituent stocks. We find that models with seasonal indexes generally outperform those without; RV can improve the out-of-sample forecasts of IVaR; student GARCH models with time-varying degrees of freedom perform best at 0.5 and 1 % IVaR, while normal GARCH models excel for 2.5 and 5 % IVaR. The results show that RV and seasonal indexes are useful to forecasting intraday volatility and Intraday VaR. 相似文献

This paper proposes a novel extension of log and exponential GARCH models, where time-varying parameters are approximated by orthogonal polynomial systems. These expansions enable us to add and study the effects of market-wide and external international shocks on the volatility forecasts and provide a flexible mechanism to capture various dynamics of the parameters. We examine the performance of the new model in both theoretical and empirical analysis. We investigate the asymptotic properties of the quasi-maximum likelihood estimators under mild conditions. The small-sample behavior of the estimators is studied via Monte Carlo simulation. The performance of the proposed models, in terms of accuracy of both volatility estimation and Value-at-Risk forecasts, is assessed in an empirical study of a set of major stock market indices. The results support the proposed specifications with respect to the corresponding constant-parameters models and to other time-varying parameter models. 相似文献

The article addresses forecasting volatility of hedge fund (HF) returns by using a non-linear Markov-Switching GARCH (MS-GARCH) framework. The in- and out-of-sample, multi-step ahead volatility forecasting performance of GARCH(1,1) and MS-GARCH(1,1) models is compared when applied to 12 global HF indices over the period of January 1990 to October 2010. The results identify different regimes with periods of high and low volatility for most HF indices. In-sample estimation results reveal a superior performance of the MS-GARCH model. The findings show that regime switching is related to structural changes in the market factor for most strategies. Out-of-sample forecasting shows that the MS-GARCH formulation provides more accurate volatility forecasts for most forecast horizons and for most HF strategies. Inclusion of MS dynamics in the GARCH specification highly improves the volatility forecasts for those strategies that are particularly sensitive to general macroeconomic conditions, such as Distressed Restructuring and Merger Arbitrage. 相似文献

For a plain vanilla call and three of the more popular exotic (path-dependent) types of options, this study examines the impact of symmetric and asymmetric GARCH processes in returns. The price, delta and gamma of European call options, Black–Scholes implied volatilities and convergence of these factors are all studied, through a simulation of price paths. For comparison, we ensure that the unconditional volatility of each process is identical. The impact of a standard symmetric GARCH volatility structure on the option parameters is usually to bias price and delta downwards, but to bias gamma upwards, sometimes quite considerably. Asymmetric GARCH effects exacerbate this effect, and it varies across the different options. GARCH effects appear not to induce a smile. Finally, as time to maturity shortens, at-the-money call prices and deltas converge slowly but gammas can change wildly when GARCH effects are added. 相似文献

Volatility clustering is a pervasive feature of equity markets. This article studies volatility clustering in an equilibrium setting by generalizing the CRRA and CARA representative agent models of finance. In equilibrium, the market portfolio follows a volatility regime-switching process in which the volatility level is determined by the agent's local risk aversion. Using monthly data, the empirical tests reveal that at least four volatility regimes are necessary to fit the data. While one of the models explains the GARCH effects in the data, an analysis of the Euler equation pricing errors suggests that both models are likely misspecified. Since the models can be used to closely approximate any state-independent utility function, it is doubtful that there exists any representative agent equilibrium (with state-independent utility) that is consistent with the data. An equivalent interpretation is that the market portfolio price process is not a diffusion process of the type studied by Bick [Bick, A., On viable diffusion price processes of the market portfolio, J. Finance 45 (1990) 673–689] and He and Leland [He, H., Leland, H., On equilibrium asset price processes, Rev. Financ. Stud. 6 (1993) 593–617]. 相似文献

A closed-form GARCH option valuation model 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
This paper develops a closed-form option valuation formula fora spot asset whose variance follows a GARCH(p, q) process thatcan be correlated with the returns of the spot asset. It providesthe first readily computed option formula for a random volatilitymodel that can be estimated and implemented solely on the basisof observables. The single lag version of this model containsHeston's (1993) stochastic volatility model as a continuous-timelimit. Empirical analysis on S&P500 index options showsthat the out-of-sample valuation errors from the single lagversion of the GARCH model are substantially lower than thead hoc Black-Scholes model of Dumas, Fleming and Whaley (1998)that uses a separate implied volatility for each option to fitto the smirk/smile in implied volatilities. The GARCH modelremains superior even though the parameters of the GARCH modelare held constant and volatility is filtered from the historyof asset prices while the ad hoc Black-Scholes model is updatedevery period. The improvement is largely due to the abilityof the GARCH model to simultaneously capture the correlationof volatility, with spot returns and the path dependence involatility. 相似文献

The use of GARCH modeling in empirical finance has so far to a great extent been restricted to larger asset markets. This paper considers whether the GARCH framework can be used on a smaller, less liquid market. In particular, selected stocks on the Vancouver Stock Exchange, a smaller market in Canada, are examined. Modeling return volatility in the standard GARCH framework and returns as autoregressive fails to remove significant serial correlation in the mean. The results indicate that once the parameters are adjusted for non-synchronous trading effects, GARCH can also be successful in modeling stochastic volatility on smaller markets. Persistence in both the mean and variance are eliminated with these adjustments. In addition, for some stocks, volumes add explanatory power for explaining return volatility. 相似文献

In a free capital mobile world with increased volatility, the need for an optimal hedge ratio and its effectiveness is warranted to design a better hedging strategy with future contracts. This study analyses four competing time series econometric models with daily data on NSE Stock Index Futures and S&P CNX Nifty Index. The effectiveness of the optimal hedge ratios is examined through the mean returns and the average variance reduction between the hedged and the unhedged positions for 1-, 5-, 10- and 20-day horizons. The results clearly show that the time-varying hedge ratio derived from the multivariate GARCH model has higher mean return and higher average variance reduction across hedged and unhedged positions. Even though not outperforming the GARCH model, the simple OLS-based strategy performs well at shorter time horizons. The potential use of this multivariate GARCH model cannot be sublined because of its estimation complexities. However, from a cost of computation point of view, one can equally consider the simple OLS strategy that performs well at the shorter time horizons. 相似文献

Stochastic volatility (SV) models are theoretically more attractive than the GARCH type of models as it allows additional randomness. The classical SV models deduce a continuous probability distribution for volatility so that it does not admit a computable likelihood function. The estimation requires the use of Bayesian approach. A recent approach considers discrete stochastic autoregressive volatility models for a bounded and tractable likelihood function. Hence, a maximum likelihood estimation can be achieved. This paper proposes a general approach to link SV models under the physical probability measure, both continuous and discrete types, to their processes under a martingale measure. Doing so enables us to deduce the close-form expression for the VIX forecast for the both SV models and GARCH type models. We then carry out an empirical study to compare the performances of the continuous and discrete SV models using GARCH models as benchmark models. 相似文献

We apply a new algorithm based on Fourier analysis to compute the volatility of a diffusion process. By using simulations of the continuous-time GARCH model, we show that our method performs well in computing integrated volatility. We show that linear interpolation of high frequency observations induces a downward bias in estimating integrated volatility. By measuring ex post volatility with our method, we find that the forecasting performance of the GARCH model is improved with respect to what is established when classical methods are employed. These results are confirmed by the analysis of exchange rate high frequency time series. 相似文献

This paper analyzes the volatility spillovers and asymmetry between REITs and stock prices for nine countries (Australia, Belgium, Germany, Italy, Japan, The Netherlands, Singapore, the United Kingdom, and the United States) using eight different multivariate GARCH models. We also analyze the optimal weights, hedging effectiveness, and hedge ratios for REIT-stock portfolio holdings with respect to the results. The empirical results indicate that dynamic conditional correlation (DCC) models provide a better fit than the constant conditional correlation models. The DCC with volatility spillovers and asymmetry (DCC-SA) model provides a better fit than the other multivariate GARCH models. The DCC-SA model also provides the best hedging effectiveness for all pairs of REIT-stock assets. More importantly, this result holds for all cases and for all models that we consider, which means that by taking spillover and asymmetry into consideration, hedging effectiveness can be vastly improved. 相似文献
