Stock Market Performance: Variance Decomposition of Price-Earnings Ratio, Dividend Yield and Tobin's Q 股票市场表现:市盈率、股息率和托宾Q的方差分解
V. Sum
This study examines the relative importance of percentage change in price-to-earnings ratio (PE), percentage change in dividend yield (DY) and change in aggregate Tobin’s q ratio (∆TBQ) in forecasting returns on the S&P 500 (SP). The results from the variance decomposition analysis of quarterly data from 1951Q4 to 2012Q4 show that ∆TBQ beats out PE and DY in forecasting SP. While PE and DY together only forecast about 3.2% of SP at the two-quarter to eight-quarter horizons, ∆TBQ does so at about 66%. The Granger-causality test results reveal that ∆TBQ Granger-causes PE and DY. The generalized impulse response functions of the three variables are also estimated.
本研究考察了市盈率(PE)百分比变化、股息收益率(DY)百分比变化和总托宾q比率(∆TBQ)变化在预测标准普尔500指数(SP)回报中的相对重要性。对1951Q4至2012Q4季度数据进行方差分解分析的结果表明,∆TBQ在预测SP方面优于PE和DY。PE和DY加在一起只能预测2季度至8季度范围内SP的3.2%左右,而∆TBQ的预测效果约为66%。格兰杰因果检验结果表明,∆TBQ格兰杰导致PE和DY,并估计了这三个变量的广义脉冲响应函数。

Using Newspapers for Tracking the Business Cycle: A Comparative Study for Germany and Switzerland 利用报纸跟踪经济周期:德国和瑞士的比较研究
David Iselin, Boriss Siliverstovs
On the basis of keyword searches in newspaper articles, several versions of the Recession-Word Index (RWI) are constructed for Germany and Switzerland. We use these indices in order to track the business cycle dynamics in these two countries. Our main findings are the following. First, we show that augmenting benchmark auto-regressive models with the RWI generally leads to improvement in accuracy of one-step ahead forecasts of GDP, compared to those obtained by the benchmark model. Second, the accuracy of out-of-sample forecasts obtained with models augmented with the RWI is comparable to that of models augmented with established economic indicators in both countries; such as the Ifo Business Climate Index and the ZEW Indicator of Economic Sentiment for Germany, and the KOF Economic Barometer and the Purchasing Managers Index in manufacturing for Switzerland. Third, we show that the RWI-based forecasts are more accurate than the consensus forecasts, (published by Consensus Economics, Inc.), for Switzerland, whereas we reach the opposite conclusion for Germany. In fact, the accuracy of the consensus forecasts of GDP growth for Germany appears to be superior to that of any other indicator considered in our study. These results are robust to changes in estimation/forecast samples, the use of rolling vs.expanding estimation windows, and the inclusion of a web-based recession indicator extracted from Google Trends into a set of the competing models.
在报纸文章关键词搜索的基础上,构建了德国和瑞士几个版本的衰退词汇指数(RWI)。我们使用这些指数是为了跟踪这两个国家的商业周期动态。我们的主要发现如下。首先,我们表明,与使用基准模型获得的预测结果相比,使用RWI增强基准自回归模型通常会提高对GDP提前一步预测的准确性。第二,用RWI增强的模型得到的样本外预测的准确性与两国用既定经济指标增强的模型相当;例如德国的Ifo商业景气指数和ZEW经济景气指数,以及瑞士的KOF经济晴雨表和制造业采购经理指数。第三,对于瑞士,我们表明基于rwi的预测比共识预测(由consensus Economics, Inc.发布)更准确,而对于德国,我们得出了相反的结论。事实上,对德国GDP增长的共识预测的准确性似乎优于我们研究中考虑的任何其他指标。这些结果对于估计/预测样本的变化,滚动和扩展估计窗口的使用,以及从谷歌趋势中提取的基于网络的衰退指标纳入一组竞争模型都具有鲁棒性。

This paper introduces methods that allow analysts to (i) decompose the estimates of unobserved quantities into observed data, (ii) to better understand revision properties of the model, and (iii) to impose subjective prior constraints on path estimates of unobserved shocks in structural economic models. For instance, a decomposition of the flexible-price output gap, or a technology shock, into contributions of output, inflation, interest rates, and other observed variables' contribution is feasible. The intuitive nature and analytical clarity of the suggested procedures are appealing for policy-related and forecasting models.
本文介绍了允许分析师(i)将未观察到的数量的估计分解为观察到的数据的方法,(ii)更好地理解模型的修正属性,以及(iii)对结构经济模型中未观察到的冲击的路径估计施加主观先验约束。例如,将弹性价格产出缺口或技术冲击分解为产出、通胀、利率和其他观察到的变量的贡献是可行的。所建议程序的直观性质和分析的明确性对与政策有关的模型和预测模型具有吸引力。

Comparing the Accuracy of Copula-Based Multivariate Density Forecasts in Selected Regions of Support 比较基于copula的多变量密度预测在选定支持区域的准确性
C. Diks, V. Panchenko, Oleg Sokolinskiy, Dick J. C. van Dijk
This paper develops a testing framework for comparing the predictive accuracy of copula-based multivariate density forecasts, focusing on a specific part of the joint distribution. The test is framed in the context of the Kullback-Leibler Information Criterion, but using (out-of-sample) conditional likelihood and censored likelihood in order to focus the evaluation on the region of interest. Monte Carlo simulations document that the resulting test statistics have satisfactory size and power properties in small samples. In an empirical application to daily exchange rate returns we find evidence that the dependence structure varies with the sign and magnitude of returns, such that different parametric copula models achieve superior forecasting performance in different regions of the support. Our analysis highlights the importance of allowing for lower and upper tail dependence for accurate forecasting of common extreme appreciation and depreciation of different currencies.
本文开发了一个测试框架,用于比较基于copula的多变量密度预测的预测精度,重点关注联合分布的特定部分。该测试是在Kullback-Leibler信息标准的背景下构建的,但使用(样本外)条件似然和删节似然,以便将评估集中在感兴趣的区域上。蒙特卡罗模拟证明,所得的测试统计量在小样本中具有令人满意的尺寸和功率特性。在对日汇率收益的实证应用中,我们发现依赖结构随收益的符号和大小而变化,使得不同的参数copula模型在不同的支持区域获得更好的预测性能。我们的分析强调了允许上下尾依赖对于准确预测不同货币的共同极端升值和贬值的重要性。

FEER Index - Forecasting Extreme Events Risk FEER指数-预测极端事件风险
Amitay Kauffmann, Gal Zahavi
In 2008, the S&P500 aggregated a loss of 30.16% during three selected days. Unfortunately, benchmark risk measures didn't forecast these hazards. Consequently, we witness a growing interest in coherent risk measures, sensitive to high moments and heavy tail risk. Such measures were proposed by Aumann-Serrano (2007) and Foster-Hart (2008). As a generalization of these measures, we construct the FEER Index, coherent down-side risk measure "Forecasting Extreme Events Risk", sensitive to heavy tail risk. We present closed-form solution as a function of the return moments, V aR and CV aR. Furthermore, the FEER Index is dynamically calibrated to the market, becoming a live seismograph for market catastrophes.
2008年,标准普尔500指数在选定的三个交易日累计下跌30.16%。不幸的是,基准风险指标并没有预测到这些风险。因此,我们看到对一致性风险度量的兴趣日益增长,对高时刻和重尾部风险敏感。这些措施是由Aumann-Serrano(2007)和Foster-Hart(2008)提出的。作为这些指标的推广,我们构建了FEER指数,即对重尾风险敏感的连贯下行风险指标“预测极端事件风险”。我们提出了封闭形式的解决方案,作为回报矩,var和CV aR的函数。此外,FEER指数是根据市场动态校准的,成为市场灾难的实时地震仪。

Good Luck or Good Policy? An Expectational Theory of Macro-Volatility Switches 好运还是好政策?宏观波动率转换的预期理论
Gaetano Gaballo
In an otherwise unique-equilibrium model, agents are segmented into a few informational islands according to the signal they receive about others' expectations. Even if agents perfectly observe fundamentals, rational-exuberance equilibria (REX) can arise as they put weight on expectational signals to refine their forecasts. Constant-gain adaptive learning can trigger jumps between the equilibrium where only fundamentals are weighted and a REX. This determines regime switching in macro volatility despite unchanged monetary policy and time-invariant distribution of exogenous shocks. In this context, a tight inflation-targeting policy can lower expectational complementarity preventing rational exuberance, although its effect is non-monotone.
在另一个独特的均衡模型中,代理根据他们收到的关于他人期望的信号被分割成几个信息孤岛。即使代理人完全遵守基本面,理性繁荣均衡(REX)也会出现,因为他们重视预期信号,以完善他们的预测。恒定增益的自适应学习可以触发在只有基本面加权的均衡和REX之间的跳跃。这决定了在货币政策不变和外生冲击时不变分布的情况下,宏观波动的机制转换。在这种背景下,紧缩的通胀目标政策可以降低预期互补性,防止理性繁荣,尽管其效果不是单调的。

Econometric Regime Shifts and the US Subprime Bubble 计量经济学制度变迁与美国次贷泡沫
A. Anundsen
Using aggregate quarterly data for the period 1975q1–2010q4, I find that the US housing market changed from a stable regime with prices determined by fundamentals, to a highly unstable regime at the beginning of the previous decade. My results indicate that these imbalances could have been detected with the aid of real time econometric modeling and that they were caused by the sharp rise in subprime lending in the early to mid 2000s. These results are based on the detection of huge parameter non-constancies and a loss of equilibrium correction in two theory derived cointegrating relationships shown to be very stable for earlier periods. Controlling for the increased subprime exposure during this period, enables me to reestablish the pre-break relationships also for the full sample. This suggests that the US housing bubble was caused by the increased borrowing to a more risky segment of the market, which may have allowed for a latent frenzy behavior that previously was constrained by the lack of financing. With reference to Stiglitz’s general conception of a bubble, I use the econometric results to construct two bubble indicators, which clearly demonstrate the transition to an unstable regime. Such indicators can be part of an early warning system and are shown to Granger cause a set of coincident indicators and financial (in)stability measures.
利用1975年第一季度至2010年第四季度的总季度数据,我发现美国房地产市场从一个由基本面决定价格的稳定机制,转变为上一个十年之初的一个高度不稳定的机制。我的研究结果表明,这些失衡可以在实时计量经济模型的帮助下发现,它们是由2000年代初至中期次贷急剧上升造成的。这些结果是基于对两个理论推导的协整关系的巨大参数非常数的检测和平衡校正的损失,这些关系在早期是非常稳定的。控制在此期间增加的次贷风险敞口,使我能够为整个样本重建破裂前的关系。这表明,美国房地产泡沫是由向风险更高的市场部门增加借款造成的,这可能导致了一种潜在的狂热行为,而这种行为此前受到融资不足的限制。参考斯蒂格利茨关于泡沫的一般概念,我利用计量经济学的结果构建了两个泡沫指标,它们清楚地表明了向不稳定制度的过渡。这些指标可以是早期预警系统的一部分,并显示出格兰杰原因一组一致的指标和金融(in)稳定性措施。

Assessing the Impact of News on Volatility Using the News Impact Curve of EGARCH 利用EGARCH的新闻影响曲线评估新闻对波动率的影响
Meera Sharma
The news impact curve of EGARCH captures the asymmetric impact of negative news on volatility. It also captures the impact of large shocks, negative and positive. The interpretation of the curve is complicated by its composition, making it difficult to interpret its coefficients and the information in its terms. An attempt is made to simplify the interpretation of the coefficients of the EGARCH in order to capture the information in the specification. An example is used to illustrate the interpretation.

Equity and CDS Sector Indices: Dynamic Models and Risk Hedging 股票和CDS行业指数:动态模型和风险对冲
M. Caporin
The recent financial crisis had a substantial impact on equity and bond markets, as well as on the performances of managed portfolios which have been hit by the decrease of both indices. Nevertheless, the availability of indices monitoring the equity market volatility, the VIX index, credit markets default risk, and CDS indices, allows for the construction of hedging strategies. In this paper, we take the point of view of an equity investor who wants to hedge the equity risk by taking positions either on the VIX index or on CDS indices. In deriving the hedge ratios, we consider the joint dynamic of variables taking into account mean relations, variance spillovers, and asymmetry, as well as correlation changes over time. Our analysis is based on sectorial indices and shows the advantages of hedging and the impact of a model specification.
最近的金融危机对股票和债券市场以及受管理的投资组合的表现产生了重大影响,这两个指数的下跌都打击了这些投资组合的表现。然而,监测股票市场波动的指数、波动率指数、信贷市场违约风险和CDS指数的可用性,使得对冲策略的构建成为可能。在本文中,我们以一个股票投资者的观点,他想通过在VIX指数或CDS指数上建立头寸来对冲股票风险。在推导对冲比率时,我们考虑了考虑到平均关系、方差溢出和不对称性以及随时间的相关性变化的变量的联合动态。我们的分析是基于行业指数,并显示对冲的优势和模型规范的影响。

Is it Better to Average Probabilities or Quantiles? 平均概率好还是分位数好?
K. C. Lichtendahl, Y. Grushka-Cockayne, R. L. Winkler
We consider two ways to aggregate expert opinions using simple averages: averaging probabilities and averaging quantiles. We examine analytical properties of these forecasts and compare their ability to harness the wisdom of the crowd. In terms of location, the two average forecasts have the same mean. The average quantile forecast is always sharper: it has lower variance than the average probability forecast. Even when the average probability forecast is overconfident, the shape of the average quantile forecast still offers the possibility of a better forecast. Using probability forecasts for gross domestic product growth and inflation from the Survey of Professional Forecasters, we present evidence that both when the average probability forecast is overconfident and when it is underconfident, it is outperformed by the average quantile forecast. Our results show that averaging quantiles is a viable alternative and indicate some conditions under which it is likely to be more useful than averaging probabilities. This paper was accepted by Peter Wakker, decision analysis.
我们考虑了两种使用简单平均数来汇总专家意见的方法:平均概率和平均分位数。我们考察了这些预测的分析性质,并比较了它们利用大众智慧的能力。就位置而言,两个平均预报的平均值相同。平均分位数预测总是更清晰:它的方差低于平均概率预测。即使当平均概率预测过于自信时,平均分位数预测的形状仍然提供了更好预测的可能性。利用《专业预测者调查》(Survey of Professional forecasts)对国内生产总值(gdp)增长和通胀的概率预测,我们提出证据表明,无论是在平均概率预测过于自信还是过于自信时,它的表现都优于平均分位数预测。我们的结果表明,平均分位数是一种可行的替代方案,并指出在某些条件下,它可能比平均概率更有用。这篇论文被决策分析的Peter Wakker接受。

We examine analytical properties of these forecasts and compare their ability to harness the wisdom of the crowd. In terms of location, the two average forecasts have the same mean. The average quantile forecast is always sharper: it has lower variance than the average probability forecast. Even when the average probability forecast is overconfident, the shape of the average quantile forecast still offers the possibility of a better forecast. Using probability forecasts for gross domestic product growth and inflation from the Survey of Professional Forecasters, we present evidence that both when the average probability forecast is overconfident and when it is underconfident, it is outperformed by the average quantile forecast. Our results show that averaging quantiles is a viable alternative and indicate some conditions under which it is likely to be more useful than averaging probabilities.
