Speculative Oil Demand and Crude Oil Price Dynamics: A TVP-VAR Approach
نویسندگان
چکیده مقاله:
Significant decline in the slope of short-term oil supply and demand curves, along with the meaningful change in the degree of risk aversion in arbitrageurs encouraged us to test the time-varying effects of speculative demand on crude oil price dynamics over the period 1985-2016. Using a time-varying parameter vector autoregressive (TVP-VAR) model – with structural shocks identified by Killian and Murphy (2014) approach – we estimated contemporaneous impulse response of real oil prices and crude oil production to speculative demand shock; Furthermore, we derived short-term price elasticity of oil supply in response to speculative demand shock and short-term price elasticity of demand in use. The results demonstrate that the contemporaneous impact of speculative demand shock on oil production has weakened over the examined period of time. Despite moderately stable impact response of real oil price to speculative shocks, the jumps during the periods of high uncertainty and stronger risk aversion are discernable. Moreover, short-term price elasticity of oil supply in response to speculative demand shock, followed a downward trend in a pattern that was always greater than short-term price elasticity of oil supply in response to flow demand shock. The price elasticity of respective oil demand in use was also decreasing and it was smaller than The price elasticity of oil demand in production over the period. Furthermore, the magnitude of speculative oil demand shock volatility plummeted during 1985-1995, before it became stagnant in the succeeding years.

Time-Varying Transmission Mechanism of Oil Shocks in the Global Crude oil Market: A TVP-VAR Approach
In this paper, we have utilized a time-varying parameter vector autoregressive model in order to examine the structural changes in the transmission mechanisms of oil price shocks in the global crude oil market over the period of 1985-2016. In this setting, the contemporaneous response of real oil price and crude oil production to flow oil supply shock, flow oil demand shock, and speculative dem...
متن کاملCrude Oil Price Determinants
Based on monthly observations, I specify an econometric model capturing the driving forces behind the crude oil price series in recent years. A large set of covariates, such as supply and demand variables as well as futures market variables, is used to test the impact on the crude oil price. Current price movements are a result of scarce refining capacity and speculators betting on higher price...
متن کاملForecasting Crude Oil Price Volatility
We use high-frequency intra-day realized volatility to evaluate the relative forecasting performance of several models for the volatility of crude oil daily spot returns. Our objective is to evaluate the predictive ability of time-invariant and Markov switching GARCH models over different horizons. Using Carasco, Hu and Ploberger (2014) test for regime switching in the mean and variance of the ...
متن کاملCrude Oil Price Fluctuations and Saudi
This study seeks to explain why crude oil prices fluctuate, the main cause being the quota regime, which characterises the OPEC agreements. Given that the Saudi oil supply is inelastic in the short term, a shock in the oil market is accommodated by an immediate price change. In contrast, a dominant firm behaviour in the long term causes an output change, which is accompanied by a smaller price ...
متن کاملAnalyzing Crude Oil Spot Price Dynamics versus Long Term Future Prices: A Wavelet Analysis Approach
The West Texas Intermediate (WTI) spot price shows high volatility and in 2014 and 2015 when quoted prices declined sharply, long-term prices in future markets were less volatile. These prices are different and diverge depending on how they process fundamental and transitory factors. US tight oil production has been a major innovation with significant macroeconomic effects. In this paper we use...
متن کاملCrude Oil Price Forecasting with Anfis
Crude oil pricing is commonly expressed as a formula referenced to Brent or WTI crude oil. The final price of these two qualities and the spread between WTI and Brent can drive the decision when the purchase of a crude oil cargo is evaluated. A crude oil price-forecasting model is presented. It is based on past data, inventory level and volatility index and it is derived with a neuro fuzzy infe...
