We use a factor model with stochastic volatility to decompose the time-varying variance of Macro economic and Financial … component plays an important role in driving the time-varying volatility of nominal and financial variables. The cross …-country co-movement in volatility of real and financial variables has increased over time with the common component becoming more …

We study the impact of oil price shocks on US stock market volatility. We derive three different structural oil shock … variables (i.e. aggregate demand, oil-supply, and oil-demand shocks) and relate them to stock market volatility, using bivariate … structural VAR models, one for each oil price shock. Identification is achieved by assuming that the price of crude oil reacts to …

We study the effects of crude oil price shocks on the stock market volatility of the G7 economies. We rely on a … oil demand innovations have on financial volatility. We show that stock market volatility does not respond to oil supply …

Epstein-Zin preferences to study the volatility implications of a monetary policy shock. An unexpected increases in the policy … volatility effects of the shock are driven by agents' concern about the (in)ability of the monetary authority to reverse … rate by 150 basis points causes output and inflation volatility to rise around 10% above their steady-state standard …

uncertainty is proxied by the (unobserved) volatility of the structural shocks, and a regime change occurs whenever credit …

shock has remained fairly stable. Simulations from a non-linear DSGE model suggest that these empirical results are …

This paper uses a FAVAR model with stochastic volatility to estimate the impact of uncertainty shocks on real income …

We develop a dynamic factor model with time-varying parameters and stochastic volatility, estimate it with several … findings, the estimates suggest that global uncertainty plays a primary role in explaining the volatility of inflation …
