The leverage effect puzzle revisited: Identification in discrete time
重新审视杠杆效应之谜：离散时间中的识别
The term “leverage effect,” as coined by Black (1976), refers to the tendency of an asset’s volatility to be negatively correlated with the asset’s return. Aït-Sahalia et al. (2013) refer to the “leverage effect puzzle” as the fact that, in spite of a broad agreement that the effect should be present, it is hard to identify empirically. For this purpose, we propose an extension with leverage effect of the discrete time stochastic volatility model of Darolles et al. (2006).…
