An EGARCH model in which the conditional distribution is heavytailed and skewed is proposed. The properties of the model, including unconditional moments, autocorrelations and the asymptotic distribution of the maximum likelihood estimator, are obtained. Evidence for skewness in conditional t-distribution is found for a range of returns series and the model is shown to give a better fit than th...

As a versatile investment tool in energy markets for speculators and hedgers, the Goldman Sachs Commodity Index (GSCI) futures are quite well known. Therefore, this paper proposes a hybrid model incorporating ARCH family models and ANN model to forecast GSCI futures price. Empirical results show that the hybrid ARCH(1)-M-ANN model is superior to ARIMA, ARCH(1),GARCH(1,1), EGARCH(1,1) and ARIMA-...

One of the most popular univariate asymmetric conditional volatility models is the exponential GARCH (or EGARCH) specification. In addition to asymmetry, which captures the different effects on conditional volatility of positive and negative effects of equal magnitude, EGARCH can also accommodate leverage, which is the negative correlation between returns shocks and subsequent shocks to volatil...

This study employs OLS, GARCH and EGARCH regression models to test the expiration-day effects of index stock futures on market returns, volatility trading volume for Ho Chi Minh Stock Exchange (HOSE). Data used in this is from a daily return series VN30-Index period 10August 2017 through 30 June 2020. The results derived GARCH(1,1) EGARCH(1,1) consistently confirm that Index returns exists HOSE...

In this article, we investigated the volatility of Chinese open-end funds market by using Zhongxin open-end funds index. According to the characteristics of different GARCH models, we empirically studied GARCH, EGARCH and GARCH_M model. The result indicated that GARCH (1, 1) model and GARCH_M (1, 1) model could better fit the characteristics of the index return rate. At the same time, the resul...

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 ...

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...

We introduce the notion of continuous invertibility on a compact set for volatility models driven by a Stochastic Recurrence Equation (SRE). We prove in this context the strong consistency and the asymptotic normality of the M-estimator associated with the Quasi-Likelihood criteria. We recover known results on univariate and multivariate GARCH type models where the estimator coincides with the ...
