Bootstrapping volatility functionals: a local and nonparametric perspective
波动率泛函的局部非参数 bootstrap
Volatility functionals are widely used in financial econometrics. In the literature, they are estimated with realized volatility functionals using high-frequency data. In this paper we introduce a nonparametric local bootstrap method that resamples the high-frequency returns with replacement in local windows shrinking to zero. While the block bootstrap in time series (Hall et al., 1995) aims to reduce correlation, the local bootstrap is intended to eliminate the…
