A nonparametric approach to forecasting realized volatility
A well developed literature exists in relation to modeling and forecasting asset return volatility. Much of this relate to the development of time series models of volatility. This paper proposes an alternative method for forecasting volatility that does not involve such a model. Under this approach a forecast is a weighted average of historical volatility. The greatest weight is given to perio...
متن کاملForecasting realized volatility: a review
Modeling financial volatility is an important part of empirical finance. This paper provides a literature review of the most relevant volatility models, with a particular focus on forecasting models. We firstly discuss the empirical foundations of different kinds of volatility. The paper, then, analyses the non-parametric measure of volatility, named realized variance, and its empirical applica...
متن کاملThe determinants of macroeconomic volatility: A Bayesian model averaging approach
Bayesian model averaging is applied to robustly ascertain the determinants of various output volatility measures, including the downside semideviation of growth rates. Financial sophistication variables are found to have qualitatively different effects on volatility. The ratio of government expenditure to GDP exhibited a significant positive relationship with volatility and the trade share of G...
متن کاملBayesian Model Averaging and Forecasting
This paper focuses on the problem of variable selection in linear regression models. I briefly review the method of Bayesian model averaging, which has become an important tool in empirical settings with large numbers of potential regressors and relatively limited numbers of observations. Some of the literature is discussed with particular emphasis on forecasting in economics. The role of the p...
متن کاملModeling Gold Volatility: Realized GARCH Approach
F orecasting the volatility of a financial asset has wide implications in finance. Conditional variance extracted from the GARCH framework could be a suitable proxy of financial asset volatility. Option pricing, portfolio optimization, and risk management are examples of implications of conditional variance forecasting. One of the most recent methods of volatility forecasting is Real...
