Time irreversibility and EGARCH effects in US stock index returns
美国股指收益的时间不可逆性与 EGARCH 效应
Abstract In this paper we suggest using a modified version of the time reversibility (TR) test of Chen, Chou and Kuan ( 2000 ) as a complementary diagnostic test for time series models. The modified CCK test is easy to compute and requires weaker moment conditions than existing tests. Our simulations demonstrate that this test is powerful against asymmetry in volatility but the BDS test is not. In the empirical study of US stock index returns, we first find that these…
