Book The Quantile Regression Approach to Analysis of Dynamic Interaction Between Exchange Rate and Stock Returns in Emerging Markets

Download or read book The Quantile Regression Approach to Analysis of Dynamic Interaction Between Exchange Rate and Stock Returns in Emerging Markets written by Shekhar Mishra and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present paper examines the dynamic interaction between stock returns and exchange rate changes in the emerging economies of BRIC (Brazil, Russia, India and China). The paper tries to analyze the portfolio balance effect according to which the two variables are expected to be negatively related. Since under non-normality conditions and heterogeneous conditional distribution, estimation using Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) method may be biased and not much favorable, quantile regression model is adopted to analyze the relationship between stock returns and exchange rate changes. The estimation shows similar patterns with significantly negative coefficients obtained from different quantile functions for Brazil, Russia and India. However, for China the coefficients are not so significantly negative. The negative coefficients indicate adherence of markets to portfolio balance effect. However, the coefficients can vary according to changing market conditions.

Book Idiosyncratic Risk and Stock Returns

Download or read book Idiosyncratic Risk and Stock Returns written by Tariq Aziz and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 9 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The relation between idiosyncratic risk and stock returns is currently a topic of debate in the academic literature. So far the evidence regarding the relation is mixed. This study aims to investigate the cross-sectional relation between idiosyncratic risk and stock returns in the Indian stock market employing quantile regressions. Using quantile regressions, this study demonstrates that idiosyncratic volatility and stock returns relation is quantile dependent. The relation between idiosyncratic volatility and stock returns is parabolic. The high idiosyncratic risk is associated with high (low) excess returns at the upper (lower) quantile of the conditional distribution. This partially explains the inconclusive evidence on the idiosyncratic volatility and the stock returns relation in the literature.

Book Evidence of Stock Returns and Abnormal Trading Volume

Download or read book Evidence of Stock Returns and Abnormal Trading Volume written by Cathy W. S. Chen and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper presents a CAPM-based threshold quantile regression model with GARCH specification to examine relations between stock excess returns and “abnormal trading volume.” By employing the Bayesian MCMC method with asymmetric Laplace distribution to six daily Dow Jones Industrial stocks, the proposed model captures asymmetric risk through market beta and volume coefficient that change discretely between regimes that are driven by market information and various quantile levels. This study finds significantly negative effects of abnormal volume on stock excess return under low quantile levels, nevertheless there are significantly positive effects under high quantile levels. The evidence indicates that each market beta varies with different quantile levels, capturing different states of market conditions.

Book The Dynamic Relation between Stock Returns  Trading Volume  and Volatility

Download or read book The Dynamic Relation between Stock Returns Trading Volume and Volatility written by Gong-meng Chen and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We examine the dynamic relation between returns, volume, and volatility of stock indexes. The data come from nine national markets and cover the period from 1973 to 2000. The results show a positive correlation between trading volume and the absolute value of the stock price change. Granger causality tests demonstrate that for some countries, returns cause volume and volume causes returns. Our results indicate that trading volume contributes some information to the returns process. The results also show persistence in volatility even after we incorporate contemporaneous and lagged volume effects. The results are robust across the nine national markets.

Book Quantile Regression Estimation of Stock Market Volatility and Its Causes

Download or read book Quantile Regression Estimation of Stock Market Volatility and Its Causes written by Alabi Oluwapelumi and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stock market volatility is the amount of uncertainty or risk about the size of changes in stock market security value. In this study, GARCH model was built to generate stock price volatility and quantile regression estimation was used to determine the cause of volatility in stock market at different quantile level. The study provides the graphical presentation of the coefficients estimated and the variables employed. The results of the study showed that the previous residuals (ARCH effect) are significantly contributed to stock market volatility at lower quantile level (0.1, 0.25, and 0.5) and the previous volatility significant only at higher quantile level (0.9), while only exchange rate return is significant among the external causes considered.

Book Empirical Asset Pricing

Download or read book Empirical Asset Pricing written by Wayne Ferson and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2019-03-12 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An introduction to the theory and methods of empirical asset pricing, integrating classical foundations with recent developments. This book offers a comprehensive advanced introduction to asset pricing, the study of models for the prices and returns of various securities. The focus is empirical, emphasizing how the models relate to the data. The book offers a uniquely integrated treatment, combining classical foundations with more recent developments in the literature and relating some of the material to applications in investment management. It covers the theory of empirical asset pricing, the main empirical methods, and a range of applied topics. The book introduces the theory of empirical asset pricing through three main paradigms: mean variance analysis, stochastic discount factors, and beta pricing models. It describes empirical methods, beginning with the generalized method of moments (GMM) and viewing other methods as special cases of GMM; offers a comprehensive review of fund performance evaluation; and presents selected applied topics, including a substantial chapter on predictability in asset markets that covers predicting the level of returns, volatility and higher moments, and predicting cross-sectional differences in returns. Other chapters cover production-based asset pricing, long-run risk models, the Campbell-Shiller approximation, the debate on covariance versus characteristics, and the relation of volatility to the cross-section of stock returns. An extensive reference section captures the current state of the field. The book is intended for use by graduate students in finance and economics; it can also serve as a reference for professionals.

Book Routledge Handbook of Energy Economics

Download or read book Routledge Handbook of Energy Economics written by Uğur Soytaş and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-09-23 with total page 620 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Energy consumption and production have major influences on the economy, environment, and society, but in return they are also influenced by how the economy is structured, how the social institutions work, and how the society deals with environmental degradation. The need for integrated assessment of the relationship between energy, economy, environment, and society is clear, and this handbook offers an in-depth review of all four pillars of the energy-economy-environment-society nexus. Bringing together contributions from all over the world, this handbook includes sections devoted to each of the four pillars. Moreover, as the financialization of commodity markets has made risk analysis more complicated and intriguing, the sections also cover energy commodity markets and their links to other financial and non-financial markets. In addition, econometric modeling and the forecasting of energy needs, as well as energy prices and volatilities, are also explored. Each part emphasizes the multidisciplinary nature of the energy economics field and from this perspective, chapters offer a review of models and methods used in the literature. The Routledge Handbook of Energy Economics will be of great interest to all those studying and researching in the area of energy economics. It offers guideline suggestions for policy makers as well as for future research.

Book Efficiency and Volatility Dynamics of Bangladesh s Stock Market

Download or read book Efficiency and Volatility Dynamics of Bangladesh s Stock Market written by Md Abu Hasan and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2024-02-06 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contributes to empirical finance by comprehensively analysing an emerging stock market, employing modern econometric techniques. The most central and fascinating area of financial economics is probably the efficiency and volatility of the stock market – however, studies of emerging economies are relatively limited in this area. The rising importance of stock market globalisation has increased interest in emerging markets. This book leads the way for an emerging market perspective, as it explores the issue of efficiency and volatility of the stock market in Bangladesh by employing both univariate and multivariate models, using daily data of past share prices and monthly data of macroeconomic variables and the stock index, respectively. This book offers an understanding of the crucial issues facing developing economies, particularly emerging stock markets with similar characteristics to those of Bangladesh. This book undoubtedly provides valuable information for investors in the stock market, graduate, post-graduate, and PhD students in quantitative financial economics, academics in economics and finance, and policymakers in developing economies.
