Choosing between persistent and stationary volatility
在持久性波动与平稳波动之间进行选择
This paper suggests a multiplicative volatility model where volatility is decomposed into a stationary and a nonstationary persistent part. We provide a testing procedure to determine which type of volatility is prevalent in the data. The persistent part of volatility is associated with a nonstationary persistent process satisfying some smoothness and moment conditions. The stationary part is related to stationary conditional heteroskedasticity. We outline theory and…
