This article applied GARCH model instead AR or ARMA model to compare with the standard BP and SVM in forecasting of the four international including two Asian stock markets indices.These models were evaluated on five performance metrics or criteria. Our experimental results showed the superiority of SVM and GARCH models, compared to the standard BP in forecasting of the four international stock...

We compare three methods of constructing confidence intervals for sample autocorrelations of squared returns modeled by models from the GARCH family. We compare the residual bootstrap, block bootstrap and subsampling methods. The residual bootstrap based on the standard GARCH(1,1) model is seen to perform best.

In this paper we introduce an exponential continuous time GARCH(p, q) process. It is defined in such a way that it is a continuous time extension of the discrete time EGARCH(p, q) process. We investigate stationarity, mixing and moment properties of the new model. An instantaneous leverage effect can be shown for the exponential continuous time GARCH(p, p) model.

This paper collects some of the well known probabilistic properties of GARCH(p, q) processes. In particular, we address the question of strictly and of weakly stationary solutions. We further investigate moment conditions as well as the strong mixing property of GARCH processes. Some distributional properties such as the tail behaviour and continuity properties of the stationary distribution ar...

In this paper, we estimate GARCH, EGARCH, and GJR-GARCH models assuming normal and heavy-tailed distribution (i.e., GED). Results suggest that when the heavy-tailed distribution is considered, the persistence has found to be reduced in all the cases. Findings also reveal that positive shocks are more common than the negative shocks in this market.

Most studies on the asymmetric and non-linear properties of US business cycles exclude the dimension of asymmetric conditional volatility. Engle (1982) proposes an autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (ARCH) model to capture the time-varying volatility of inflation rates in the United Kingdom. Weiss (1984) finds evidence of ARCH in the US industrial production. The ARCH model is then e...

Since their introduction by Engle (1982) and Bollerslev (1986), respectively, autoregressive conditional heteroscedastic (ARCH) and generalized autoregressive conditional heteroscedastic (GARCH) models have found extraordinarily wide use. The survey article by Bollerslev, Chou, and Kroner (1982) cited more than 300 papers applying ARCH, GARCH, and other closely related models. As they showed, A...

This paper provides a new empirical guidance for modeling a skewed and fat-tailed error distribution underlying the traditional GARCH models for equity returns based on empirical findings on Realized Volatility (RV), constructed from the summation of higher-frequency squared (demeaned) returns. Based on an 80-year sample of U.S. daily stock market returns, I find that the distribution of monthl...

The paper estimate 1-day Value at Risk (VaR) taking into consideration the financial integration of Indian capital market (BSE-SENSEX and NSE-NIFTY) with other global indicators and its own volatility using daily returns covering the period January 2003 to December 2009. The paper specifies a generalized autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity (GARCH) framework to model the phenomena of v...
