Volatility Forecasting II: Stochastic Volatility Models and Empirical Evidence
ln(σt) = α + φ(ln(σt−1)− α) + ηt so that ln(σt) is an AR(1) process, where φ is a parameter that represents how quickly volatility gets pulled toward its mean, α. If ηt is normally distributed with mean 0 and variance σ η, then ln(σt) is normally distributed, and σt therefore has a lognormal distribution. To get the unconditional mean and variance of ln(σt), E[ln(σt)] = α + φ(E[ln(σt−1)]− α) + ...
متن کاملOrdinal stochastic volatility and stochastic volatility models for price changes: An empirical comparison
Ordinal stochastic volatility (OSV) models were recently developed and fitted by Müller and Czado (2008) to account for the discreteness of financial price changes, while allowing for stochastic volatility (SV). The model allows for exogenous factors both on the mean and volatility level. A Bayesian approach using Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) is followed to facilitate estimation in these par...
متن کاملMultiple time scales and the empirical models for stochastic volatility
The most common stochastic volatility models such as the Ornstein–Uhlenbeck (OU), the Heston, the exponential OU (ExpOU) and Hull–White models define volatility as a Markovian process. In this work we check the applicability of the Markovian approximation at separate times scales and will try to answer the question which of the stochastic volatility models indicated above is the most realistic....
متن کاملExtremes of Stochastic Volatility Models
Extreme value theory for a class of stochastic volatility models, in which the logarithm of the conditional variance follows a Gaussian linear process, is developed. A result for the asymptotic tail behavior of the transformed stochastic volatility process is established and used to prove that the suitably normalized extremes converge in distribution to the double exponential (Gumbel) distribut...
متن کاملVolatility in Financial Markets: Stochastic Models and Empirical Results
We investigate the historical volatility of the 100 most capitalized stocks traded in US equity markets. An empirical probability density function (pdf) of volatility is obtained and compared with the theoretical predictions of a lognormal model and of the Hull and White model. The lognormal model well describes the pdf in the region of low values of volatility whereas the Hull and White model ...
