Unspanned Macroeconomic Factors in Oil Futures
This paper constructs a macro-finance model for commodity futures, and documents a new empirical fact that real economic activity forecasts oil futures returns and prices. The model generalizes previous futures pricing models and indicates a time-varying oil risk premium that covaries strongly with the business cycle. Model estimates reveal rich dynamics between economic activity and oil future...
متن کاملUnspanned Macroeconomic Risks in Oil Futures
This paper constructs a macro-finance model for commodity futures. I document a feedback relationship between crude oil prices and real economic activity. The channel from real activity to oil prices is unspanned – meaning not identified in current futures prices – consistent with oil futures as a hedge asset against supply shocks. Unspanned macroeconomic risks have first order effects on risk ...
متن کاملNo-arbitrage macroeconomic determinants of the yield curve
No-arbitrage macro-finance models use variance decompositions to gauge the extent of association between the macro variables and yields. We show that results generated by this approach are sensitive to the order of variables in the recursive identification scheme. In a four-factor model, one may obtain 18 different sets of answers out of 24 possible. We propose an alternative measure that is ba...
