Researchers have carefully studied post-meeting central bank communication and have found that it often moves markets, but they have paid less attention to the more frequent central bankers' speeches. We create a novel dataset of US Federal Reserve speeches and use supervised multimodal natural...

This paper introduces new econometric tests to identify stochastic intensity jumps in high-frequency data. Our approach exploits the behavior of a time-varying stochastic intensity and allows us to assess how intensely stock market reacts to news. We describe the asymptotic properties of our...

We develop a network-based vector autoregressive approach to uncover the interactions amongfinancial assets by integrating multiple realized measures based on high-frequency data. Undera restricted parameter structure, our approach allows the capture of cross-sectional and time ependencies...

The promotion of financial stability is the mission of central banks and market authorities. This mission is more difficult to accomplish when trading activity is associated with financial instability in the form of intraday price jumps. While the literature has widely shown that exogenous news...

We develop a new framework to characterize the dynamics of triangular (three-point) arbitrage in electronic foreign exchange markets. To examine the properties of arbitrage, we propose a wavelet-based regression approach that is robust to estimation errors, measurement bias and persistence....
