This paper examines the dependence structure between European Union allowances (EUAs) and crude oil markets during the second commitment period of the European Union Emissions Trading Scheme and the implications for portfolio management. Using different copula models, our findings suggest...

We employ the time-varying copula approach to investigate the conditional dependence between the Brent crude oil price and stock markets in the Central and Eastern European (CEE) transition economies. Our results show evidence of a positive dependence between the oil and the stock markets of the...

In this analysis we more accurately capture the cointegrating relationship between natural gas and crude oil prices by endogenously incorporating shifts in the cointegrating vector into the estimation of the cointegrating equation. Specifically, we allow the cointegrating equation to switch...

In this article, we show how the copula-GARCH approach can be appropriately used to investigate the conditional dependence structure between the crude oil and natural gas markets as well as to derive implications for portfolio risk management in extreme economic conditions. Using daily price...

Using daily data from January 1999 to December 2011, we examine U.S. stock returns (S&P 500, Dow Jones, NASDAQ, and Russell 2000) based on a wide range of information, including equity VIX volatility, inflation expectations, interest rates, gold prices, and the USD/Euro exchange rate. The focus...

In this paper, we explore the strategy on hedging crude oil using refined product. We develop a regime switching asymmetric DCC (RS-ADCC) model by taking into account both of regime switching and asymmetry in correlations. Our out-of-sample findings indicate that RS-ADCC displays greater hedging...

According to the Rockets and Feathers Hypothesis (RFH), the transmission mechanism of positive and negative changes in the price of crude oil to the price of gasoline is asymmetric. Although there have been many contributions documenting that downstream prices are more reactive to increases than...

A previous research ignores the distinction between short term and long term, and by decomposing financial variables (world general and stock market indexes) and the macroeconomic variable (oil prices) at various time scales, we study the relationship among series on a daily scale by scale...

In this paper we examine the nonlinear relation between the EUA price and its fundamentals, such as energy prices, macroeconomic risk factors and weather conditions. By estimating a Markov regime-switching model, we find that the relation between the EUA price and its fundamentals varies over...

The paper empirically explores the possible causes behind electricity price jumps in the Nordic electricity market, Nord Pool. A time-series model (a mixed GARCH–EARJI jump model) capturing the common statistical features of electricity prices is used to identify price jumps. By the model, a...
