Cross-Correlation Dynamics in Financial Time Series
نویسنده
چکیده
The dynamics of the equal-time cross-correlation matrix of multivariate financial time series is explored by examination of the eigenvalue spectrum over sliding time windows. Empirical results for the S&P 500 and the Dow Jones Euro Stoxx 50 indices reveal that the dynamics of the small eigenvalues of the cross-correlation matrix, over these time windows, oppose those of the largest eigenvalue. This behaviour is shown to be independent of the size of the time window and the number of stocks examined. A basic one-factor model is proposed, which captures the main dynamical features of the eigenvalue spectrum of the empirical data. Through the addition of perturbations to the one-factor model, (leading to a market plus sectors model), additional sectoral features are added, resulting in an Inverse Participation Ratio comparable to that found for empirical data.

Multiscaled Cross-Correlation Dynamics in Financial Time-Series
The cross-correlation matrix between equities comprises multiple interactions between traders with varying strategies and time horizons. In this paper, we use the Maximum Overlap Discrete Wavelet Transform (MODWT) to calculate correlation matrices over different time scales and then explore the eigenvalue spectrum over sliding time windows. The dynamics of the eigenvalue spectrum at different s...
متن کاملMesoscopic Community Structure of Financial Markets Revealed by Price and Sign Fluctuations
The mesoscopic organization of complex systems, from financial markets to the brain, is an intermediate between the microscopic dynamics of individual units (stocks or neurons, in the mentioned cases), and the macroscopic dynamics of the system as a whole. The organization is determined by "communities" of units whose dynamics, represented by time series of activity, is more strongly correlated...

– To investigate the universal structure of interactions in financial dynamics, we analyze the cross-correlation matrix C of price returns of the Chinese stock market, in comparison with those of the American and Indian stock markets. As an important emerging market, the Chinese market exhibits much stronger correlations than the developed markets. In the Chinese market, the interactions betwee...
متن کاملAnother Look at the Relationship between Cross-market Correlation and Volatility
While increases in cross-market correlations during periods of market crises are well documented, Forbes and Rigobon (2002) show that correlation coefficients are biased measures of dependence when markets become more volatile, and that there is no evidence of contagion in recent financial crises once corrected for these effects. This paper explores the impact of volatility on market dependence...
متن کاملCoupling between time series: a network view
Recently, the visibility graph has been introduced as a novel view for analyzing time series, which maps it to a complex network. In this paper, we introduce a new algorithm of visibility, ”cross-visibility”, which reveals the conjugation of two coupled time series. The correspondence between the two time series is mapped to a network, ”the cross-visibility graph”, to demonstrate the correlatio...
