We present a new method of estimating the asset stochastic volatility and return. In doing so, we overcome some of the limitations of the existing random walk models, such as the GARCH/ARCH models.

A new method is proposed for estimating linear triangular models, where identification results from the structural errors following a bivariate and diagonal GARCH(1,1) process. The associated estimator is a GMM estimator shown to have the usual √T-asymptotics. A Monte Carlo study of the...

This draft is a summary of the paper entitled: Forecasting Fuel Prices with the Chilean Exchange Rate. In that paper we show that the Chilean exchange rate has the ability to predict the returns of oil prices and of three additional oil-related products: gasoline, propane and heating oil. The...

In this paper, we aim at forecasting the stochastic volatility of key financial market variables with the Kalman filter using stochastic models developed by Taylor (1986,1994) and Nelson (1990). First, we compare a stochastic volatility model relying on the Kalman filter to the conditional...

This study sheds new light on the question of whether or not sentiment surveys, and the expectations derived from them, are relevant to forecasting economic growth and stock returns, and whether they contain information that is orthogonal to macroeconomic and financial data. I examine 16...

We study the behavior and interaction of systematic and idiosyncratic components of risk in a cross-section of U ….K. stocks. We find no clear evidence of a trend in any component of total risk, but we document different “regimes” in the … behavior of each component of total risk, in their correlation patterns and thus in their contribution to aggregate risk …

Closed form approximations to the fundamental solution of parabolic PDEs is considered. The approach consists on approximations based on a parametrix series expansion. The approximation error can be bounded by a gaussian function and it is of an order of t^2. These explicit expressions have...
