强、半强及潜在因子下线性资产定价模型的 alpha 识别与利用AI 解读

The risk premia of traded factors are the sum of factor means and a parameter vector we denote by φ which is identified from the cross section regression of alpha of individual securities on the vector of factor loadings. If phi is non-zero one can construct "phi-portfolios" which exploit the systematic components of non-zero alpha. We show that for known values of betas and when phi is non-zero there exist phi-portfolios that dominate mean-variance portfolios. The paper…

含共同因子的动态时空与网络 ARCH 模型AI 解读

We introduce a dynamic spatiotemporal volatility model that extends traditional approaches by incorporating spatial, temporal, and spatiotemporal spillover effects, along with volatility-specific observed and latent factors. The model offers a more general network interpretation, making it applicable for studying various types of network spillovers. The primary innovation lies in incorporating volatility-specific latent factors into the dynamic spatiotemporal volatility…

截断已实现变差的数据驱动不动点调参AI 解读

Many methods for estimating integrated volatility and related functionals of semimartingales in the presence of jumps require specification of tuning parameters for their use in practice. In much of the available theory, tuning parameters are assumed to be deterministic and their values are specified only up to asymptotic constraints. However, in empirical work and in simulation studies, they are typically chosen to be random and data-dependent, with explicit choices often…

利用广义正态分布混合模型刻画金融收益AI 解读

This PhD Thesis presents an investigation into the analysis of financial returns using mixture models, focusing on mixtures of generalized normal distributions (MGND) and their extensions. The study addresses several critical issues encountered in the estimation process and proposes innovative solutions to enhance accuracy and efficiency. In Chapter 2, the focus lies on the MGND model and its estimation via expectation conditional maximization (ECM) and generalized…

从熵的视角估计波动率AI 解读

In the present paper, we first revisit the volatility estimation approach proposed by N. Kunitomo and S. Sato, and second, we show that the volatility estimator proposed by P. Malliavin and M.E. Mancino can be understood in a unified way by the approach. Third, we introduce an alternative estimator that might overcome the inconsistency caused by the microstructure noise of the initial observation.

具有两个波动成分和两个驱动因子的 GARCH 模型AI 解读

We introduce a novel GARCH model that integrates two sources of uncertainty to better capture the rich, multi-component dynamics often observed in the volatility of financial assets. This model provides a quasi closed-form representation of the characteristic function for future log-returns, from which semi-analytical formulas for option pricing can be derived. A theoretical analysis is conducted to establish sufficient conditions for strict stationarity and geometric…

含长期与短期波动成分的 GARCH 期权估值：保证方差为正的新框架AI 解读

Christoffersen, Jacobs, Ornthanalai, and Wang (2008) (CJOW) proposed an improved Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity (GARCH) model for valuing European options, where the return volatility is comprised of two distinct components. Empirical studies indicate that the model developed by CJOW outperforms widely-used single-component GARCH models and provides a superior fit to options data than models that combine conditional heteroskedasticity with…

具有确定性时变截距的新 GARCH 模型AI 解读

It is common for long financial time series to exhibit gradual change in the unconditional volatility. We propose a new model that captures this type of nonstationarity in a parsimonious way. The model augments the volatility equation of a standard GARCH model by a deterministic time-varying intercept. It captures structural change that slowly affects the amplitude of a time series while keeping the short-run dynamics constant. We parameterize the intercept as a linear…

不同波动特征下的股票价格预测：循环神经网络与混合专家模型比较AI 解读

This study evaluates the effectiveness of a Mixture of Experts (MoE) model for stock price prediction by comparing it to a Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) and a linear regression model. The MoE framework combines an RNN for volatile stocks and a linear model for stable stocks, dynamically adjusting the weight of each model through a gating network. Results indicate that the MoE approach significantly improves predictive accuracy across different volatility profiles. The RNN…

何时能够对弱潜在因子开展统计推断？AI 解读

This article establishes a new and comprehensive estimation and inference theory for principal component analysis (PCA) under the weak factor model that allow for cross-sectional dependent idiosyncratic components under the nearly minimal factor strength relative to the noise level or signal-to-noise ratio. Our theory is applicable regardless of the relative growth rate between the cross-sectional dimension $N$ and temporal dimension $T$. This more realistic assumption and…

GARCHX-NoVaS：纳入外生变量的无模型预测方法AI 解读

In this work, we explore the forecasting ability of a recently proposed normalizing and variance-stabilizing (NoVaS) transformation with the possible inclusion of exogenous variables. From an applied point-of-view, extra knowledge such as fundamentals- and sentiments-based information could be beneficial to improve the prediction accuracy of market volatility if they are incorporated into the forecasting process. In the classical approach, these models including exogenous…

马赛克置换检验：因子模型的精确非参数拟合优度检验AI 解读

Financial firms often rely on fundamental factor models to explain correlations among asset returns and manage risk. Yet after major events, e.g., COVID-19, analysts may reassess whether existing risk models continue to fit well: specifically, after accounting for a set of known factor exposures, are the residuals of the asset returns independent? With this motivation, we introduce the mosaic permutation test, a nonparametric goodness-of-fit test for preexisting factor…

一种简单而有力的尾指数回归AI 解读

This paper introduces a flexible framework for the estimation of the conditional tail index of heavy tailed distributions. In this framework, the tail index is computed from an auxiliary linear regression model that facilitates estimation and inference based on established econometric methods, such as ordinary least squares (OLS), least absolute deviations, or M-estimation. We show theoretically and via simulations that OLS provides interesting results. Our Monte Carlo…

债券风险溢价可预测性的稳健分位数检验AI 解读

Different from existing literature on testing the macro-spanning hypothesis of bond risk premia, which only considers mean regressions, this paper investigates whether the yield curve represented by CP factor (Cochrane and Piazzesi, 2005) contains all available information about future bond returns in a predictive quantile regression with many other macroeconomic variables. In this study, we introduce the Trend in Debt Holding (TDH) as a novel predictor, testing it alongside…

大规模资产组合中的冲击自适应稳健最小方差投资组合AI 解读

This paper proposes a robust, shocks-adaptive portfolio in a large-dimensional assets universe where the number of assets could be comparable to or even larger than the sample size. It is well documented that portfolios based on optimizations are sensitive to outliers in return data. We deal with outliers by proposing a robust factor model, contributing methodologically through the development of a robust principal component analysis (PCA) for factor model estimation and a…

基于张量因子模型的张量时间序列缺失值插补AI 解读

We propose tensor time series imputation when the missing pattern in the tensor data can be general, as long as any two data positions along a tensor fibre are both observed for enough time points. The method is based on a tensor time series factor model with Tucker decomposition of the common component. One distinguished feature of the tensor time series factor model used is that there can be weak factors in the factor loadings matrix for each mode. This reflects reality…

存在相关市场微观结构噪声时的已实现波动率状态空间模型AI 解读

Volatility means the degree of variation of a stock price which is important in finance. Realized Volatility (RV) is an estimator of the volatility calculated using high-frequency observed prices. RV has lately attracted considerable attention of econometrics and mathematical finance. However, it is known that high-frequency data includes observation errors called market microstructure noise (MN). Nagakura and Watanabe[2015] proposed a state space model that resolves RV into…

二阶随机占优下的稀疏张成组合与分散化不足AI 解读

We develop and implement methods for determining whether relaxing sparsity constraints on portfolios improves the investment opportunity set for risk-averse investors. We formulate a new estimation procedure for sparse second-order stochastic spanning based on a greedy algorithm and Linear Programming. We show the optimal recovery of the sparse solution asymptotically whether spanning holds or not. From large equity datasets, we estimate the expected utility loss due to…

利用分段分位数回归改进金融网络中的因果发现AI 解读

Financial networks can be constructed using statistical dependencies found within the price series of speculative assets. Across the various methods used to infer these networks, there is a general reliance on predictive modelling to capture cross-correlation effects. These methods usually model the flow of mean-response information, or the propagation of volatility and risk within the market. Such techniques, though insightful, don't fully capture the broader…

仿射随机波动率模型的矩估计AI 解读

We develop moment estimators for the parameters of affine stochastic volatility models. We first address the challenge of calculating moments for the models by introducing a recursive equation for deriving closed-form expressions for moments of any order. Consequently, we propose our moment estimators. We then establish a central limit theorem for our estimators and derive the explicit formulas for the asymptotic covariance matrix. Finally, we provide numerical results to…

概率分位数因子分析AI 解读

This paper extends quantile factor analysis to a probabilistic variant that incorporates regularization and computationally efficient variational approximations. We establish through synthetic and real data experiments that the proposed estimator can, in many cases, achieve better accuracy than a recently proposed loss-based estimator. We contribute to the factor analysis literature by extracting new indexes of \emph{low}, \emph{medium}, and \emph{high} economic policy…

从现代优化视角稳健估计含潜在内生异常值的回归模型AI 解读

This paper addresses the robust estimation of linear regression models in the presence of potentially endogenous outliers. Through Monte Carlo simulations, we demonstrate that existing $L_1$-regularized estimation methods, including the Huber estimator and the least absolute deviation (LAD) estimator, exhibit significant bias when outliers are endogenous. Motivated by this finding, we investigate $L_0$-regularized estimation methods. We propose systematic heuristic…

具有不同时间变动波动率设定的贝叶斯多元分位数回归AI 解读

This article proposes a novel Bayesian multivariate quantile regression to forecast the tail behavior of energy commodities, where the homoskedasticity assumption is relaxed to allow for time-varying volatility. In particular, we exploit the mixture representation of the multivariate asymmetric Laplace likelihood and the Cholesky-type decomposition of the scale matrix to introduce stochastic volatility and GARCH processes and then provide an efficient MCMC to estimate them.…

利用相似性参数修正与聚合冲击信息预测波动率AI 解读

We develop a procedure for forecasting the volatility of a time series immediately following a news shock. Adapting the similarity-based framework of Lin and Eck (2020), we exploit series that have experienced similar shocks. We aggregate their shock-induced excess volatilities by positing the shocks to be affine functions of exogenous covariates. The volatility shocks are modeled as random effects and estimated as fixed effects. The aggregation of these estimates is done in…
