ARCH–GARCH approaches to modeling high-frequency financial data
نویسندگان
چکیده
We model the power-law stability in distribution of returns for S&P500 index by the GARCH process which we use to account for the long memory in the variance correlations. Precisely, we analyze the distributions corresponding to temporal aggregation of the GARCH process, i.e., the sum of n GARCH variables. The stability in the power-law tails is controlled by the GARCH parameters. We model the crossover behavior in magnitude correlations of returns by the so-called two-FIARCH process. Besides detrended fluctuation analysis, we employ the method proposed by Geweke and Porter-Hudak to estimate the fractional parameter in magnitude correlations. r 2004 Elsevier B.V.

Analysis of Stock Market Volatility by Continuous-time GARCH Models
The discrete time ARCH/GARCH model of Engle and Bollarslev has been enormously influential and successful in the modelling of financial data. Recently, Klüppelberg, Lindner, andMaller (2004) introduced the so-called “COGARCH”model as a continuoustime analogue to the GARCH model. Many aspects of the COGARCH have been investigated, including various of its theoretical properties, its relations to...
متن کاملLong Memory in Volatility
How persistent is volatility? In other words, how quickly do financial markets forget large volatility shocks? Figure 1.1, Shephard (attached) shows that daily squared returns on exchange rates and stock indices can have autocorrelations which are significant for many lags. In any stationary ARCH or GARCH model, memory decays exponentially fast. For example, if {εt } are ARCH (1), the {εt} have...
متن کاملModeling of Financial Data: Comparison of the Truncated Lévy Flight and the ARCH(1) and GARCH(1,1) processes
We compare our results on empirical analysis of financial data with simulations of two stochastic models of the dynamics of stock market prices. The two models are (i) the truncated Lévy flight recently introduced by us and (ii) the ARCH(1) and GARCH(1,1) processes. We find that the TLF well describes the scaling and its breakdown observed in empirical data, while it is not able to properly des...
متن کاملRecent developments in volatility modeling and applications
In financial modeling, it has been constantly pointed out that volatility clustering and conditional nonnormality induced leptokurtosis observed in high frequency data. Financial time series data are not adequately modeled by normal distribution, and empirical evidence on the non-normality assumption is well documented in the financial literature (details are illustrated by Engle (1982) and Bol...

The autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (ARCH) and generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (GARCH) models take the dependency of the conditional second moments. The idea behind ARCH/GARCH model is quite intuitive. For ARCH models, past squared innovations describes the present squared volatility. For GARCH models, both squared innovations and the past squared volatil...
