Modeling Autoregressive Conditional Skewness and Kurtosis with Multi-Quantile CAViaR
Engle and Manganelli (2004) propose CAViaR, a class of models suitable for estimating conditional quantiles in dynamic settings. Engle and Manganelli apply their approach to the estimation of Value at Risk, but this is only one of many possible applications. Here we extend CAViaR models to permit joint modeling of multiple quantiles, Multi-Quantile (MQ) CAViaR. We apply our new methods to estim...
متن کاملImplied volatility skews and stock return skewness and kurtosis implied by stock option prices
The Black–Scholes* option pricing model is commonly applied to value a wide range of option contracts. However, the model often inconsistently prices deep in-the-money and deep out-of-the-money options. Options professionals refer to this well-known phenomenon as a volatility ‘skew’ or ‘smile’. In this paper, we examine an extension of the Black–Scholes model developed by Corrado and Su‡ that s...
متن کاملSkewness and Kurtosis in Statistical Kinetics.
We obtain lower and upper bounds on the skewness and kurtosis associated with the cycle completion time of unicyclic enzymatic reaction schemes. Analogous to a well-known lower bound on the randomness parameter, the lower bounds on skewness and kurtosis are related to the number of intermediate states in the underlying chemical reaction network. Our results demonstrate that evaluating these hig...
متن کاملDensity-Based Skewness and Kurtosis Functions
New, functional, concepts of skewness and kurtosis are introduced for large classes of continuous univariate distributions. They are the first skewness and kurtosis measures to be defined directly in terms of the probability density function and its derivative, and are directly interpretable in terms of them. Unimodality of the density is a basic prerequisite. The mode defines the centre of suc...

The Black-Scholes (1973) option pricing model is used to value a wide range of option contracts. However, the model often inconsistently prices deep in-themoney and deep out-of-the-money options. Options’ professionals refer to this phenomenon as a volatility ‘skew’ or ‘smile.’ In this paper, we apply an extension of the Black-Scholes model developed by Jarrow and Rudd (1982) to an investigatio...
