Intraday return predictability: Evidence from commodity ETFs and their related volatility indices.

ABSTRACT: Using high-frequency data of crude oil, gold, and silver exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and their related volatility indices, we analyse patterns of intraday return predictability, also called intraday momentum, in each market. We find that intraday return predictability exists in all the markets, but the patterns of predictability differ for each market, with different half-hour returns, not necessarily the first half-hour returns of the trading day, exhibiting significant predictability for their last half-hour counterparts, depending on the specific market. The intraday return predictability is stronger on days of higher volatility and larger jumps. Substantial economic value can be generated by a market timing strategy which is constructed upon the intraday momentum, in all the markets under study. Possible theoretical explanations for the intraday return predictability are infrequent portfolio rebalancing investors and late-informed investors.

COVID-induced sentiment and the intraday volatility spillovers between energy and other ETFs.

Project description:Did Covid19 induce market turmoil impact the intraday volatility spillovers between energy and other ETFs?. To examine this, we first estimate the realized volatility of ETFs using the 5-min high-frequency data. Next, we employ time-varying parameter vector autoregressions (TVP-VAR). Finally, we utilize the wavelet coherence measure to test the time-frequency impact of COVID-induced sentiment on the spillovers by employing investors' psychological and behavioural factors. We find that oil and stock markets are net transmitters while currency, bonds, and silver markets are net receivers. The wavelet analysis embarked significant impact of media coverage and fake news index towards shaping investors' pessimism for their investments. We proposed useful implications for policymakers, governments, investors, and portfolio managers.

Is green investment different from grey? Return and volatility spillovers between green and grey energy ETFs.

Project description:Investment in Green energy is becoming a popular alternative asset class for investors, primarily due to its environment-friendly attributes. However, there is a dire need for subjective evaluation of this emerging asset class based on the risk-return dynamics to which investors are exposed. To respond to this call, in this study, we conduct this evaluation utilizing a unique and rich data set consisting of daily prices of exchange-traded funds (ETFs) established on different asset classes. We use Vector autoregression and Baba-Engle-Kraft-Kroner parameterization of multivariate GARCH models and assess the relative strength of return and volatility spillovers from the Green and Grey energy markets. Our results reveal the return shocks originated in the Green energy market and transmitted to other markets are more pronounced. It is also observed that the potential to earn high returns and the weak correlation of Green energy ETFs with the traditional asset classes are the crucial factors helpful in inviting attention and investment of investors after 2015. Although our results further suggest that the role of Grey energy is diminishing, as shown by the Impulse response functions and the coefficients of multivariate ARCH and GARCH. Nonetheless, for some asset classes, e.g., Bonds, the volatility spillovers that originated in the Grey energy market are still prominent and robust.

Trade policy announcements can increase price volatility in global food commodity markets.

Project description:Many countries use trade policy to insulate their domestic markets from price volatility. However, there is a widespread concern that such policies-particularly export restrictions-may amplify global price volatility, adversely affecting other countries. Here, using an original dataset on trade policy announcements on wheat and maize encompassing the food price crises of 2007-2008 and 2010-2011, we show that the announcement of trade policy changes can increase global price volatility. This effect applies not only to export restrictions but also to import liberalization measures and is most pronounced when markets are tight (stocks are low). Policymakers should work towards increasing stock levels to mitigate price volatility effects of trade policy changes. When markets are tight, export restrictions and import liberalizations should be avoided.

COVID-19 pandemic and economic policy uncertainty regimes affect commodity market volatility.

Project description:This paper investigates the switching effect of COVID-19 pandemic and economic policy uncertainty on commodity prices. We employ Markov regime-switching dynamic model to explore price regime dynamics of eight widely traded commodities namely oil, natural gas, corn, soybeans, silver, gold, copper, and steel. We fit two Markov switching regimes to allow parameters to respond to both low and high volatilities. The empirical evidence shows oil, natural gas, corn, soybean, silver, gold, copper, and steel returns adjust to shocks in COVID-19 outcomes and economic policy uncertainty at varying degrees--in both low volatility and high volatility regimes. In contrast, oil and natural gas do not respond to changes in COVID-19 deaths in both regimes. The findings show most commodities are responsive to historical price in terms of demand and supply in both volatility regimes. Our findings further show a high probability that commodity prices will remain in low volatility regime than in high volatility regime--owing to COVID-19-attributed market uncertainties. These findings are useful to both investors and policymakers--as precious metals and agricultural commodities show less negative response to exogenous variables. Thus, investors and portfolio managers could use precious metals, viz. Gold for short-term cover against systematic risks in the market during the period of global pandemic.

Learning from SARS: Return and volatility connectedness in COVID-19.

Project description:Using a sample of the G20 countries, we examine the impact of COVID-19 on stock return and volatility connectedness, and whether the connectedness measures behave differently for countries with SARS 2003 experience. We find that both stock return and volatility connectedness increase across the phases of the COVID-19 pandemic which is more pronounced as the severity of the pandemic builds up. However, the degree of connectedness is significantly lower in countries with SARS 2003 death experience. Our results are robust to different measures of COVID-19 severity and controlling for a number of cross-country differences in economic development.

Return and volatility transmission between oil price shocks and agricultural commodities.

Project description:This paper studies the connectedness between oil price shocks and agricultural commodities. Our sample period ranges from January 2002 to July 2020, covering the three global crises; Global Financial Crisis, the European sovereign debt crisis and Covid-19 pandemic crisis. We employ Granger causality tests, and the static and dynamic connectedness spillover index methodology. We find that the shocks in oil prices are Granger-caused mainly by price changes of grains, live cattle, and wheat, while supply shock granger causes variations mostly in grain prices. We find that, from the point of view of static connectedness, for both, price and volatility spillovers, the livestock is the largest transmitter, while the lean hogs are the major receiver. Our dynamic analysis evidences that connectedness increases during the financial crisis period. Our results are potentially useful for investors, portfolios managers and policy makers.

Do non-pharmaceutical policies in response to COVID-19 affect stock performance? Evidence from Malaysia stock market return and volatility.

Project description:This paper examines the impact of non-pharmaceutical intervention by government on stock market return as well as volatility. Using daily Malaysian equity data from January 28, 2020 to May 31, 2022, the regression analysis with bootstrapping technique reveals that the government's response in combating the deadly virus through Stringency index has shown a positive direct effect on both stock market returns and volatility, and indirect negative effect on stock market returns. The study revealed that international travel restriction and cancelling public events are the major contributors to the growth of volatility when estimated for Malaysia stock market index. On the one hand, heterogenous impact is expected from the perspective of different sectors when the individual social distancing measures were taken into account in determining stock return and volatility. Apart from that, the robustness check for the main findings remains intact in majority of the regression models after incorporating daily COVID-19 death rate, log (daily vaccination) and day-of-the-week effect as additional control variable in alternative.

The Return and Volatility Connectedness of NFT Segments and Media Coverage: Fresh Evidence Based on News About the COVID-19 Pandemic.

Project description:We study the relationship between return and volatility of non-fungible tokens (NFT) segments and media coverage during the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic in a connectedness framework. We document media coverage as a net transmitter of spillover for both the return and volatility of NFT segments. We find that NFTs representing the Utilities segment is a major transmitter of spillover. Our findings have important implications for portfolio managers, regulators, and policymakers.

Infected Markets: Novel Coronavirus, Government Interventions, and Stock Return Volatility around the Globe.

Project description:Do government interventions aimed at curbing the spread of COVID-19 affect stock market volatility? To answer this question, we explore the stringency of policy responses to the novel coronavirus pandemic in 67 countries around the world. We demonstrate that non-pharmaceutical interventions significantly increase equity market volatility. The effect is independent from the role of the coronavirus pandemic itself and is robust to many considerations. Furthermore, two types of actions that are usually applied chronologically particularly early-information campaigns and public event cancellations-are the major contributors to the growth of volatility.

Predicting the volatility of Chinese stock indices based on realized recurrent conditional heteroskedasticity.

Project description:The realized recurrent conditional heteroscedasticity (RealRECH) model improves volatility prediction by integrating long short-term memory (LSTM), a recurrent neural network unit, into the realized generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (RealGARCH) model. However, at present, there is no literature on the ability of the RealRECH model to fit and predict volatility in the Chinese market. In this paper, a study is conducted to test the in-sample explainability and out-of-sample prediction ability of the RealRECH model for the SSE50, CSI300, CSI500 and CSI1000 indices in the Chinese market and to determine whether it performs better than the RealGARCH model. The results of the in-sample analysis show that the RealRECH model not only provides better in-sample interpretability for all four indices but also captures the complex dynamics of time series volatility that the RealGARCH model cannot capture, such as long-term dependence and nonlinearity. The results of out-of-sample volatility prediction show that the RealRECH model better predicts the volatility of the CSI500 and CSI1000 indices but yields worse predictions for the SSE50 and CSI300 indices. Thus, the RealRECH model can be used for CSI500 and CSI1000 prediction.
