Clustering of volatility as a multiscale phenomenon 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
M. Pasquini M. Serva 《The European Physical Journal B - Condensed Matter and Complex Systems》2000,16(1):195-201
The dynamics of prices in financial markets has been studied intensively both experimentally (data analysis) and theoretically
(models). Nevertheless, a complete stochastic characterization of volatility is still lacking. What is well known is that
absolute returns have memory on a long time range, this phenomenon is known as clustering of volatility. In this paper we
show that volatility correlations are power-laws with a non-unique scaling exponent. This kind of multiscale phenomenology
has some analogies with fully developed turbulence and disordered systems and it is now pointed out for financial series.
Starting from historical returns series, we have also derived the volatility distribution, and the results are in agreement
with a log-normal shape. In our study, we consider the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), daily composite index closes (January
1966 to June 1998) and the US Dollar/Deutsche Mark (USD-DM) noon buying rates certified by the Federal Reserve Bank of New
York (October 1989 to September 1998).

Non-equilibrium phenomena occur not only in the physical world, but also in finance. In this work, stochastic relaxational
dynamics (together with path integrals) is applied to option pricing theory. Equilibrium in financial markets is defined as
the absence of arbitrage, i.e. profits “for nothing”. A recently proposed model (by Ilinski et al.) considers fluctuations around this equilibrium state by introducing a relaxational dynamics with random noise for intermediate
deviations called “virtual” arbitrage returns. In this work, the model is incorporated within a martingale pricing method
for derivatives on securities (e.g. stocks) in incomplete markets using a mapping to option pricing theory with stochastic interest rates. The arbitrage return
is considered as a component of a fictitious short-term interest rate in a virtual world. The influence of intermediate arbitrage
returns on the price of derivatives in the real world can be recovered by performing an average over the (non-observable)
arbitrage return at the time of pricing. Using a famous result by Merton and with some help from the path integral method,
exact pricing formulas for European call and put options under the influence of virtual arbitrage returns (or intermediate
deviations from economic equilibrium) are derived where only the final integration over initial arbitrage returns needs to
be performed numerically. This result, which has not been given previously and is at variance with results stated by Ilinski
et al., is complemented by a discussion of the hedging strategy associated to a derivative, which replicates the final payoff but
turns out to be not self-financing in the real world, but self-financing when summed over the derivative's remaining life
time. Numerical examples are given which underline the fact that an additional positive risk premium (with respect to the
Black-Scholes values) is found reflecting extra hedging costs due to intermediate deviations from economic equilibrium.

Detailed analysis of the log-periodic structures as precursors of the financial crashes is presented. The study is mainly
based on the German Stock Index (DAX) variation over the 1998 period which includes both, a spectacular boom and a large decline,
in magnitude only comparable to the so-called Black Monday of October 1987. The present example provides further arguments
in favour of a discrete scale-invariance governing the dynamics of the stock market. A related clear log-periodic structure
prior to the crash and consistent with its onset extends over the period of a few months. Furthermore, on smaller time-scales
the data seems to indicate the appearance of analogous log-periodic oscillations as precursors of the smaller, intermediate
decreases. Even the frequencies of such oscillations are similar on various levels of resolution. The related value of preferred scaling ratios is amazingly consistent with those found for a wide variety of other complex systems. Similar
analysis of the major American indices between September 1998 and February 1999 also provides some evidence supporting this
concept but, at the same time, illustrates a possible splitting of the dynamics that a large market may experience.

In order to emphasize cross-correlations for fluctuations in major market places, series of up and down spins are built from
financial data. Patterns frequencies are measured, and statistical tests performed. Strong cross-correlations are emphasized,
proving that market moves are collective behaviors.

Are citations of scientific papers a case of nonextensivity? 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The distribution N(x) of citations of scientific papers has recently been illustrated (on ISI and PRE data sets) and analyzed by Redner (Eur.
Phys. J. B 4, 131 (1998)). To fit the data, a stretched exponential () has been used with only partial success. The success is not complete because the data exhibit, for large citation count
x, a power law (roughly for the ISI data), which, clearly, the stretched exponential does not reproduce. This fact is then attributed to a possibly
different nature of rarely cited and largely cited papers. We show here that, within a nonextensive thermostatistical formalism,
the same data can be quite satisfactorily fitted with a single curve (namely, [0pt] for the available values of x. This is consistent with the connection recently established by Denisov (Phys. Lett. A 235, 447 (1997)) between this nonextensive formalism and the Zipf-Mandelbrot law. What the present analysis ultimately suggests
is that, in contrast to Redner's conclusion, the phenomenon might essentially be one and the same along the entire range of the citation number x.

Modelling fluctuations of financial time series: from cascade process to stochastic volatility model 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
J.F. Muzy J. Delour E. Bacry 《The European Physical Journal B - Condensed Matter and Complex Systems》2000,17(3):537-548
In this paper, we provide a simple, “generic” interpretation of multifractal scaling laws and multiplicative cascade process
paradigms in terms of volatility correlations. We show that in this context 1/f power spectra, as recently observed in reference [23], naturally emerge. We then propose a simple solvable “stochastic volatility”
model for return fluctuations. This model is able to reproduce most of recent empirical findings concerning financial time
series: no correlation between price variations, long-range volatility correlations and multifractal statistics. Moreover,
its extension to a multivariate context, in order to model portfolio behavior, is very natural. Comparisons to real data and
other models proposed elsewhere are provided.

Starting from the characterization of the past time evolution of market prices in terms of two fundamental indicators, price
velocity and price acceleration, we construct a general classification of the possible patterns characterizing the deviation
or defects from the random walk market state and its time-translational invariant properties. The classification relies on
two dimensionless parameters, the Froude number characterizing the relative strength of the acceleration with respect to the
velocity and the time horizon forecast dimensionalized to the training period. Trend-following and contrarian patterns are
found to coexist and depend on the dimensionless time horizon. The classification is based on the symmetry requirements of
invariance with respect to change of price units and of functional scale-invariance in the space of scenarii. This “renormalized
scenario” approach is fundamentally probabilistic in nature and exemplifies the view that multiple competing scenarii have
to be taken into account for the same past history. Empirical tests are performed on about nine to thirty years of daily returns
of twelve data sets comprising some major indices (Dow Jones, SP500, Nasdaq, DAX, FTSE, Nikkei), some major bonds (JGB, TYX)
and some major currencies against the US dollar (GBP, CHF, DEM, JPY). Our “renormalized scenario” exhibits statistically significant
predictive power in essentially all market phases. In contrast, a trend following strategy and following strategy perform well only on different and specific market phases. The value of the “renormalized scenario” approach
lies in the fact that it always selects the best of the two, based on a calculation of the stability of their predicted market
trajectories.

We consider time series of financial data as the Dow Jones Index with respect to the existence of local order. The basic idea
is that in spite of the high stochasticity in average there might be special local situations where there local order exist
and the predictability is considerably higher than in average. In order to check this assumption we discretise the time series
and investigate the frequency of the continuation of definite words of length n first. We prove the existence of relatively long-range correlations under special conditions. The higher order Shannon entropies
and the conditional entropies (dynamical entropies) are calculated, characteristic fluctuations are found. Instead of the
dynamic entropies which yield mean values of the uncertainty/predictability we finally investigate the local values of the
uncertainty/predictability and the distribution of these quantities.
