高频委托报价中的跳跃检测AI 解读

We propose methods to infer jumps of a semi-martingale, which describes long-term price dynamics, based on discrete, noisy, high-frequency observations. Different to the classical model of additive, centered market microstructure noise, we consider one-sided microstructure noise for order prices in a limit order book. We develop methods to estimate, locate and test for jumps using local minima of best ask quotes. We provide a local jump test and show that we can consistently…

重新考察石油与股市：混合函数型 VAR 方法AI 解读

This paper proposes a new mixed vector autoregression (MVAR) model to examine the relationship between aggregate time series and functional variables in a multivariate setting. The model facilitates a reexamination of the oil‐stock price nexus by estimating the effects of demand and supply shocks from the global market for crude oil on the entire distribution of U.S. stock returns since the late 1980s. We show that the MVAR effectively extracts information from the returns…

利用观测结构信息估计全球金融市场的大规模波动矩阵AI 解读

In this article, we develop a novel large volatility matrix estimation procedure for analyzing global financial markets. Practitioners often use lower-frequency data, such as weekly or monthly returns, to address the issue of different trading hours in the international financial market. However, this approach can lead to inefficiency due to information loss. To mitigate this problem, our proposed method, called Structured Principal Orthogonal complEment Thresholding…

无条件异方差下温和爆炸性自回归模型的推断AI 解读

Mildly explosive autoregressions have been extensively employed in recent theoretical and applied econometric work to model the phenomenon of asset market bubbles. An important issue in this context concerns the construction of confidence intervals for the autoregressive parameter that represents the degree of explosiveness. Existing studies rely on intervals that are justified only under conditional homoskedasticity/heteroskedasticity. This paper studies the problem of…

重尾高频金融观测下的因子与特异性 VAR 波动率矩阵模型AI 解读

This paper introduces a novel process for both factor and idiosyncratic volatility matrices whose eigenvalues follow the vector auto-regressive (VAR) model. We call it the factor and idiosyncratic VAR (FIVAR) model. The FIVAR model accounts for the dynamics of the factor and idiosyncratic volatilities and includes many parameters. In addition, many empirical studies have shown that high-frequency stock returns and volatilities often exhibit heavy tails. To handle these two…

加权平均分位数回归AI 解读

In this paper, we introduce the weighted-average quantile regression model. We argue that this model is of interest in many applied settings and develop an estimator for parameters of this model. We show that our estimator is T-consistent and asymptotically normal under weak conditions, where T is the sample size. We demonstrate the usefulness of our estimator in two empirical settings. First, we study the factor structures of the expected shortfalls of the industry…

控制错误发现率的稳健共同基金筛选AI 解读

In this article, we address the challenge of identifying well-performing mutual funds among a large pool of candidates, utilizing the linear factor pricing model. Assuming observable factors with a weak correlation structure for the idiosyncratic error, we propose a spatial-sign based multiple testing procedure (SS-BH). When latent factors are present, we first extract them using the elliptical principle component method (He et al. 2022) and then propose a factor-adjusted…

使高维分布稳健投资组合问题可行AI 解读

Robust estimation for modern portfolio selection on a large set of assets becomes more important due to the large deviation of empirical inference on big data. We propose a distributionally robust methodology for high-dimensional mean–variance portfolio problems, aiming to select an optimal conservative portfolio allocation by considering distributional uncertainty. With the help of factor structure, we extend the distributionally robust mean–variance problem investigated by…

从个体资产横截面估计风险溢价AI 解读

We propose the continuous updating estimator (CUE) for estimating ex-post risk premia from large cross-sections of individual asset returns over limited time periods. We analyze its properties while also allowing for an unknown number of unobserved factors. The CUE then provides an estimator of its, so-called, pseudo-true value, i . e . , the risk premia on the observed factors without assuming that they comprise all priced factors. We develop size-correct procedures for…

分位数图模型：预测、条件独立与系统性风险应用AI 解读

We propose two types of Quantile Graphical Models: (i) Conditional Independence Quantile Graphical Models (CIQGMs) characterize the conditional independence by evaluating the distributional dependence structure at each quantile index, as such, those can be used for validation of the graph structure in the causal graphical models; (ii) Prediction Quantile Graphical Models (PQGMs) characterize the statistical dependencies through the graphs of the best linear predictors under…

线性随机贴现因子模型中无关因子的误设稳健自助 t 检验AI 解读

This paper examines the applicability of the bootstrap approach to test for irrelevant risk factors that are potentially useless in misspecified linear stochastic discount factor (SDF) models. In the literature, the misspecification-robust inference with useless factors is known to give rise to nonstandard limiting distributions bounded stochastically to compute critical values. We show how and to what extent the wild bootstrap yields a more accurate approximation of the…

日内波动率曲线形状变化的在线检测AI 解读

We devise an on-line detector for temporal instability in the shape of average intraday volatility curves under a general semimartingale setup for the price-volatility dynamics. We adopt a block-based strategy to estimate volatility nonparametrically from the intraday observations over local time windows with asymptotically shrinking size. Our detector then tracks sequential changes in running means of the intraday volatility curve estimates. Asymptotic size and power…

We show that financial constraints lead to spatial misallocation and contribute to racial disparities in housing and wealth accumulation. Using bunching and difference-in-differences designs, we document that down payment constraints disproportionately limit the ability of Black households to access housing in high-opportunity areas. We build a dynamic life-cycle model to examine the long-term wealth effects of these leverage distortions on group differences in wealth…

稳健的高维时变系数估计AI 解读

In this article, we develop a novel high-dimensional coefficient estimation procedure based on high-frequency data. Unlike usual high-dimensional regression procedures such as LASSO, we additionally handle the heavy-tailedness of high-frequency observations as well as time variations of coefficient processes. Specifically, we employ the Huber loss and a truncation scheme to handle heavy-tailed observations, while $\ell _{1}$ -regularization is adopted to overcome the curse…

基于核现货波动率估计量的积分波动率泛函估计AI 解读

For a multidimensional Itô semimartingale, we consider the problem of estimating integrated volatility functionals. Jacod and Rosenbaum (2013, The Annals of Statistics 41(3), 1462–1484) studied a plug-in type of estimator based on a Riemann sum approximation of the integrated functional and a spot volatility estimator with a forward uniform kernel. Motivated by recent results that show that spot volatility estimators with general two-sided kernels of unbounded support are…

粗糙波动率的非参数检验AI 解读

We develop a nonparametric test for deciding whether volatility of an asset follows a standard semimartingale process, with paths of finite quadratic variation, or a rough process with paths of infinite quadratic variation. The test uses the fact that volatility is rough if and only if volatility increments are negatively autocorrelated at high frequencies. It is based on the sample autocovariance of increments of spot volatility estimates computed from high-frequency asset…

广义自回归条件贝塔：多因子资产定价中的纵向反馈AI 解读

We propose a new class of observation-driven models, Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Betas, which describe the joint dynamics of time-varying slopes in a system of conditionally heteroskedastic simultaneous multiple regressions. The model accommodates large dimensions, parametric longitudinal restrictions, exogenous variables, and the coexistence of constant and time-varying slopes. It also introduces new mechanisms for the transmission of shocks, namely, beta…

Copula 密度的非参数贝叶斯估计及金融市场应用AI 解读

We propose a nonparametric Bayesian estimator of copula density based on the Logistic Gaussian Process density estimation method. A Gaussian process prior with flexible mean and covariance functions is placed on the underlying latent function. To avoid the typical boundary issues in copula density estimation, a transformation approach is adopted, allowing the latent process to be defined on an unrestricted support and then back-transformed to obtain the posterior copula…

条件得分残差与时间序列模型的序列依赖诊断AI 解读

This paper introduces conditional score residuals and proposes a general framework for the diagnostic analysis of time series models. Conditional score residuals encompass commonly used definitions of residuals in time series models, including ARMA residuals, squared residuals, and Pearson residuals. In particular, these residuals are special cases of conditional score residuals when the conditional distribution of the model belongs to the exponential family. On the other…

金融时间序列截面最大值的自回归条件 GB2 动态建模AI 解读

This article introduces the “autoregressive conditional generalized beta distribution of the second kind” (AcGB2) to model the dynamic cross-sectional maxima of multivariate financial times series. The temporal dependence of the resulting univariate maxima time series is characterized by the parameter dynamics of the standard GB2 distribution, which offer versatility in approximating various distributions, including heavy-tailed distributions, through parameter adjustments.…

半参数时变面板数据模型的估计与推断AI 解读

This article introduces a new semiparametric panel data model that accounts for time-varying coefficients and aligns with recent advancements in factor models featuring nonparametric loading functions. We propose a profile marginal integration (PMI) method to jointly estimate the unknown quantities in a series of easily implementable steps. The asymptotic properties of these estimators are established. Additionally, we provide a hypothesis test to assess the validity of…

精度矩阵最小二乘：高维估计与推断AI 解读

The least squares estimator can be cast as depending only on the precision matrix of the data, similar to the weights of a global minimum variance portfolio. We give conditions under which any plug-in precision matrix estimator produces an unbiased and consistent least squares estimator for stationary time series regressions, in both low- and high-dimensional settings. Such conditions define a class of “Precision Least Squares” (PrLS) estimators, which are shown to be…

资产收益中因子强度的不稳定性AI 解读

We study the problem of detecting structural instability of factor strength in asset pricing models for financial returns with observable factors.We allow for strong and weaker factors, in which the sum of squared betas grows at a rate equal to and slower than the number of test assets, respectively: this growth rate determines the strength of the corresponding factor.We propose LM and Wald statistics for the null hypothesis of stability and derive their asymptotic…

微观结构噪声下傅里叶瞬时波动率估计的渐近正态性与有限样本稳健性AI 解读

We study the efficiency and robustness of the Fourier spot volatility estimator when high-frequency prices are contaminated by microstructure noise. First, we show that the estimator is consistent and asymptotically efficient in the presence of additive noise, establishing a Central Limit Theorem (CLT) with the optimal rate of convergence n1/8. Additionally, we complete the asymptotic theory in the absence of noise, obtaining a CLT with the optimal rate of convergence n1/4.…
