The presence of autocorrelated financial returns has major implications for investment decisions. Unsurprisingly, therefore, numerous studies have sought to shed light on whether returns are autocorrelated or not, to what extent, and when. Standard tests for autocorrelation rely on the...

This paper extends the gravity model to financial markets by examining how distance and bilateral linkages influence stock market correlations between the United States and selected emerging economies. To this end, the Poisson Pseudo Maximum Likelihood (PPML) estimator is used to account for...

We investigate the impact of structural shocks on the joint distribution of future real GDP growth and inflation in the euro area. We model the conditional mean of these variables, along with selected financial indicators, using a VAR and perform quantile regressions on the VAR residuals to...

A dynamic modelling for heavy-tailed cylindrical time series is developed by combining score-driven models with a generalised Pareto-type cylindrical distribution. The proposed specification extends existing cylindrical models by allowing location, scale, concentration, and crucially, the tail...
