Beyond Stochastic Volatility and Jumps in Returns and Volatility
While a great deal of attention has been focused on stochastic volatility in stock returns, there is strong evidence suggesting that return distributions have time-varying skewness and kurtosis as well. Under the risk-neutral measure, for example, this can be seen from variation across time in the shape of Black-Scholes implied volatility smiles. This paper investigates model characteristics th...
متن کاملEstimation of the instantaneous volatility and detection of volatility jumps
Concerning price processes, the fact that the volatility is not constant has been observed for a long time. So we deal with models as dXt = μtdt + σtdWt where σ is a stochastic process. Recent works on volatility modeling suggest that we should incorporate jumps in the volatility process. Empirical observations suggest that simultaneous jumps on the price and the volatility [8, 9] exist. The hy...
متن کاملStochastic volatility, jumps and hidden time changes
Stochastic volatility and jumps are viewed as arising from Brownian subordination given here by an independent purely discontinuous process and we inquire into the relation between the realized variance or quadratic variation of the process and the time change. The class of models considered encompasses a wide range of models employed in practical ̄nancial modeling. It is shown that in general ...
متن کاملEconomic Freedom and Economic Volatility
Theory suggests that economic freedom—measured by the Economic Freedom of the World Index (EFW) -may increase or decrease economic volatility. Similar to previous literature, we empirically test the relationship between economic freedom and economic volatility, but we differ from the literature in how we account for (1) changes in EFW, and (2) the nonlinear relationship between freedom and vola...
متن کاملFunctional Relationships Between Price and Volatility Jumps and Their Consequences for Discretely Observed Data
Many prominent continuous-time stochastic volatility models exhibit certain functional relationships between price jumps and volatility jumps. We show that stochastic volatility models like the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck and other continous-time CARMA models as well as continous-time GARCH and EGARCH models all exhibit such functional relations. We investigate the asymptotic behaviour of certain functi...
