Filtering and forecasting with misspecified ARCH models II
误设 ARCH 模型的滤波与预测:第二篇
A companion paper (Nelson, 1992) showed that in data observed at high frequencies, an ARCH model may perform well in estimating the conditional variance of a process, even when the ARCH model is severely misspecified. While such models may perform reasonably well at filtering (i.e., at estimating unobserved instantaneous conditional variances), they may perform disastrously at medium- and long-term forecasting of the process and its volatility. In this paper, we develop…
