High-Frequency Financial Econometrics
This book is fundamentally about the estimation of risk. At an intuitive level, risk is easy to understand: given an asset with a current price of say $100, what is the likelihood that at some future time—the risk horizon—its price will be less than $90? Or more than $120? And how does the probability of observing a price below $90 change as a function of the risk horizon? Such heuristic notion...
متن کاملUnemployment, Financial Frictions, and the Housing Market
We develop and calibrate a two-sector, search-matching model of the labor market augmented to incorporate a housing market and a frictional goods market. The labor market is divided into a construction sector and a non-housing sector, and there is perfect mobility of unemployed workers across sectors. In the frictional goods market households, who lack commitment, nance random consumption oppo...
متن کاملFinancial frictions, the housing market, and unemployment
We develop a two-sector search-matching model of the labor market with imperfect mobility of workers, augmented to incorporate a housing market and a frictional goods market. Homeowners use home equity as collateral to nance idiosyncratic consumption opportunities. A nancial innovation that raises the acceptability of homes as collateral raises house prices and reduces unemployment. It also t...
متن کاملEconometrics of testing for jumps in financial economics using bipower variation
In this paper we provide an asymptotic distribution theory for some non-parametric tests of the hypothesis that asset prices have continuous sample paths. We study the behaviour of the tests using simulated data and see that certain versions of the tests have good finite sample behaviour. We also apply the tests to exchange rate data and show that the null of a continuous sample path is frequen...
متن کاملDetecting spurious jumps in high frequency data
We propose a technique to avoid spurious detection of jumps in high frequency data via an explicit thresholding on available test statistics. We prove that it eliminates asymptotically all spurious jumps. Monte Carlo results show that it performs also well in finite samples. Our empirical investigation of Dow Jones stocks reveals that the spurious detections represent up to 50% of the jumps det...
