In this paper, we introduce a new GARCH model with an infinitely divisible distributed innovation, referred to as the rapidly decreasing tempered stable (RDTS) GARCH model. This model allows the description of some stylized empirical facts observed for stock and index returns, such as volatility clustering, the non-zero skewness and excess kurtosis for the residual distribution. Furthermore, we...

This paper aims to evaluate the forecast capability of electricity markets, categorized by numerous major characteristics such as non-stationarity, nonlinearity, highest volatility, high frequency, mean reversion and multiple seasonality, which give multifarious forecasts. To improve it, this investigation proposes a new hybrid approach that links dual long-memory process (Gegenbauer autoregres...

Various e m p i r i d studies have shown that the time-varying volatility of asset returns can be described by GARCH (generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity) models. The corresponding GARCH option pricing model of Duan (1995) is capable of depicting the "smile-effect" which often can be found in option prices. In some derivative markets, however, the slope of the smile is not...

Economic and financial time series typically exhibit time varying conditional (given the past) standard deviations and correlations. The conditional standard deviation is also called the volatility. Higher volatilities increase the risk of assets, and higher conditional correlations cause an increased risk in portfolios. Therefore, models of time varying volatilities and correlations are essent...

this paper investigates the relationship between macroeconomic instability and private investment of the iranian economy. the study uses a trivariate var(2)-garch(1,1)-in-mean with diagonal bekk approach to proxied inflation and exchange rate uncertainties as the main indicators of macroeconomic instability. moreover, bounds testing approach to level relationship applied to investigate the long...

This paper studies volatility forecasting in the financial stock market. In general, stock market volatility is time-varying and exhibits clustering properties. Thus, this paper presents the results of using a fuzzy system method to analyze clustering in generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (GARCH) models. It also uses the adaptive method of recursive least-squares (RLS) to...

We conduct empirical analyses to model the volatility of stock market in Malaysia. The GARCH type models (symmetric and asymmetric GARCH) are used to model the volatility of stock market in Malaysia. Their performances are compared based on three statistical error measures tools, i.e. mean squared error, root means squared error and mean absolute percentage error for in sample and out sample an...
