Chasing volatility
追踪波动率：含波动率跳跃的乘法误差模型
Persistence and unpredictable large increments characterize the volatility of financial returns. We propose the Multiplicative Error Model with volatility jumps (MEM-J) to describe and predict the probability and the size of these extreme events. Under the MEM-J, the conditional density of the realized measure is a countably infinite mixture of Gamma and Kappa distributions, with closed form conditional moments. We derive stationarity conditions and the asymptotic theory for…
