基于时变SJC-Copula对商品期货市场间风险传染的探究

分别选取WIND商品指数和CRB指数作为衡量我国商品期货市场及国际商品期货市场综合价格的指标,利用时变SJC-Copula模型构建两者之间的动态相依结构,通过动态的尾部相关系数来探究我国商品期货市场与国际市场间的尾部相关性.实证结果表明,我国商品期货市场与国际市场间的上尾相关性要强于下尾相关性,即当商品期货价格上涨时,两个市场间更易发生风险传染.     

中国国债期货与隐含择券期权定价

本文提出了一种双树拼接的改进BDT模型,在此基础上发展出两种方法为中国市场上的国债期货和择券期权定价。其中"直接定价法"直接使用双树拼接树图,"两步定价法"则是经期权调整的持有成本模型。对中国TF1403和T1603国债期货合约的实证研究表明,两种方法都是合理的,且各有优势,"两步定价法"与市场价格差异较小,"直接定价法"与市场价格同步性较高。     

A non-Gaussian Ornstein–Uhlenbeck model for pricing wind power futures

The recent introduction of wind power futures written on the German wind power production index has brought with it new interesting challenges in terms of modelling and pricing. Some particularities of this product are the strong seasonal component embedded in the underlying, the fact that the wind index is bounded from both above and below and also that the futures are settled against a synthetically generated spot index. Here, we consider the non-Gaussian Ornstein–Uhlenbeck type processes proposed by Barndorff-Nielsen and Shephard in the context of modelling the wind power production index. We discuss the properties of the model and estimation of the model parameters. Further, the model allows for an analytical formula for pricing wind power futures. We provide an empirical study, where the model is calibrated to 37 years of German wind power production index that is synthetically generated assuming a constant level of installed capacity. Also, based on 1 year of observed prices for wind power futures with different delivery periods, we study the market price of risk. Generally, we find a negative risk premium whose magnitude decreases as the length of the delivery period increases. To further demonstrate the benefits of our proposed model, we address the pricing of European options written on wind power futures, which can be achieved through Fourier techniques.     

我国铝期货、铝现货与废铝价格动态关系的实证研究

利用Johansen协整检验、Granger因果检验以及向量误差修正(VEC)模型、脉冲响应分析和方差分解分析,从三个不同的角度对我国铝期货、铝现货和废铝市场价格间的动态关系进行了实证分析,研究结果表明:从引导关系看,铝期货价格与铝现货价格之间具有协整关系,并且铝期货价格对铝现货价格及废铝价格具有单向价格引导关系,铝现货价格对废铝价格具有单向价格引导关系;从冲击反应看,铝期货对铝现货的冲击比较强烈,而铝期货对废铝以及铝现货对废铝的冲击相对比较和缓;从价格发现程度看,铝期货市场具有最强的价格发现能力,铝现货价格发现能力次之,废铝的价格发现能力最弱,表明铝期货是价格发现过程的主要驱动力量.     

中美燃料油期货价格引导研究

本文利用ADF单整检验、EG协整检验、误差修正模型、引导关系检验等方法研究中美燃料油期货价格之间的互动关系,结果表明:我国燃料油期货在价格和价格收益方面均与国际燃料油市场存在明显的即时引导关系;国际燃料油期货市场上的价格变动对国内燃料油期货价格以及价格收益的变动具有单向的滞后引导作用;我国燃料油期货市场的价格和收益方面的信息对于国际市场几乎不产生影响,我国尚不具备制定价格的话语权。     

考虑结算风险的套期保值研究

期货市场的风险转移功能主要通过套期保值策略来实现,期货市场套期保值的关键问题是套期保值比率的确定。现有套期保值研究侧重于规避价格风险,忽略了期货市场另一个重要的风险因素-结算风险。本文通过建立考虑结算风险的期货套期保值决策模型,有效地平衡了套期保值过程中的价格风险与结算风险。具体特色一是将套保者的结算风险厌恶态度直接反映到套期比的计算中,体现了结算风险对套期保值决策的影响;二是在一定条件下,本模型的套期比趋近于最小方差套期比;三是利用ARMA时间序列方法预测期货与现货的价格走势,有效地反映了期货价格一阶平稳和季节性变化规律,使估计的套期比更加精确可靠。     

Long-range dependence in the volatility of commodity futures prices: Wavelet-based evidence

Commodity futures have long been used to facilitate risk management and inventory stabilization. The study of commodity futures prices has attracted much attention in the literature because they are highly volatile and because commodities represent a large proportion of the export value in many developing countries. Previous research has found apparently contradictory findings about the presence of long memory or more generally, long-range dependence. This note investigates the nature of long-range dependence in the volatility of 14 energy and agricultural commodity futures price series using the improved Hurst coefficient (H) estimator of Abry, Teyssière and Veitch. This estimator is motivated by the ability of wavelets to detect self-similarity and also enables a test for the stability of H. The results show evidence of long-range dependence for all 14 commodities and of a non-stationary H for 9 of 14 commodities.     

On the Modeling of CO2 EUA and CER Prices of EU‐ETS for the 2008–2012 Period

Increased consumption of fossil fuels in industrial production has led to a significant elevation in the emission of greenhouse gases and to global warming. The most effective international action against global warming is the Kyoto Protocol, which aims to reduce carbon emissions to desired levels in a certain time span. Carbon trading is one of the mechanisms used to achieve the desired reductions. One of the most important implications of carbon trading for industrial systems is the risk of uncertainty about the prices of carbon allowance permits traded in the carbon markets. In this paper, we consider stochastic and time series modeling of carbon market prices and provide estimates of the model parameters involved, based on the European Union emissions trading scheme carbon allowances data obtained for 2008–2012 period. In particular, we consider fractional Brownian motion and autoregressive moving average–generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedastic modeling of the European Union emissions trading scheme data and provide comparisons with benchmark models. Our analysis reveals evidence for structural changes in the underlying models in the span of the years 2008–2012. Data‐driven methods for identifying possible change‐points in the underlying models are employed, and a detailed analysis is provided. Our analysis indicated change‐points in the European Union Allowance (EUA) prices in the first half of 2009 and in the second half of 2011, whereas in the Certified Emissions Reduction (CER) prices three change‐points have appeared, in the first half of 2009, the middle of 2011, and in the second half of 2012. These change‐points seem to parallel the global economic indicators as well. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

DC current effect on the magnetic phase and transport properties of polycrystalline La0.7Ca0.3MnO3

The influence of DC current on the resistivity and phase transition of polycrystalline La_0.7Ca_0.3MnO₃ has been investigated. The specific heat measurement found that charge carriers and ferromagnetic spin-wave contributions were changed after applied DC current. Applying high electric fields leads to the formation of ferromagnetic regions. The resistivity drops abruptly once the percolating current path is established. As current through the sample disappears, the larger ferromagnetic (FM) clusters, however, remain and are frozen in giving a measurable contribution to the specific heat of the system. The larger clusters should give rise to the value of spin-wave stiffness constant (D), as it is expected to increase the strength of the ferromagnetic coupling. The metallic ferromagnetic regions would make the charge carrier delocalization and attribute to specific heat linear term γ.
