Modeling Gold Volatility: Realized GARCH Approach
F orecasting the volatility of a financial asset has wide implications in finance. Conditional variance extracted from the GARCH framework could be a suitable proxy of financial asset volatility. Option pricing, portfolio optimization, and risk management are examples of implications of conditional variance forecasting. One of the most recent methods of volatility forecasting is Real...
متن کاملRealized Volatility in Noisy Prices: a MSRV approach
Volatility is the primary measure of risk in modern finance and volatility estimation and inference has attracted substantial attention in the recent financial econometric literature, especially in high-frequency analyses. High-frequency prices carry a significant amount of noise. Therefore, there are two volatility components embedded in the returns constructed using high frequency prices: the...
متن کاملAsymmetric Realized Volatility Risk
In this paper, we document that realized variation measures constructed from high-frequency returns reveal a large degree of volatility risk in stock and index returns, where we characterize volatility risk by the extent to which forecasting errors in realized volatility are substantive. Even though returns standardized by ex post quadratic variation measures are nearly Gaussian, this unpredict...
متن کاملRealized Volatility Options
We will in some places restrict attention to puts, by put-call parity: for realized variance options, a long-call short-put combination pays [X]T −Q, equal to a Q-strike variance swap; and for realized volatility options, a long-call short-put combination pays [X] T − Q1/2, equal to a Q1/2-strike volatility swap. Unlike variance swaps [EQF07/024, EQF07/045], which admit exact model-free (assumi...
متن کاملModel Selection when there are Multiple Breaks
We consider model selection facing uncertainty over the choice of variables and the occurrence and timing of multiple location shifts. General-to-simple selection is extended by adding an impulse indicator for every observation to the set of candidate regressors: see Johansen and Nielsen (2009). We apply that approach to a fat-tailed distribution, and to processes with breaks: Monte Carlo exper...
