Abstract

This study makes an empirical comparison of various realized volatilities (RVs) in terms of overnight returns. In financial asset markets, during overnight or holidays, no or few trading data are available causing a difficulty in computing RVs for a whole span of a day. A review will be made on several RVs reflecting overnight return variations. The comparison is made for forecast accuracies of several RVs for some financial assets: the US S&P500 index, the US NASDAQ index, the KOSPI (Korean Stock Price Index), and the foreign exchange rate of the Korea won relative to the US dollar. The RV of a day is compared with the square of the next day log-return, which is a proxy for the integrated volatility of the day. The comparison is made by investigating the Mean Absolute Error (MAE) and the Root Mean Square Error (RMSE). Statistical inference of MAE and RMSE is made by applying the model confidence set (MCS) approach and the Diebold-Mariano test. For the three index data, a specific RV emerges as the best one, which addresses overnight return variations by inflating daytime RV.

본 논문은 장외거래 수익률을 이용하여 추정한 여러 실현변동성들을 실증적으로 비교분석한다. 실제 금융 자산 시장에서는 장외시간이나 휴일에 거래가 적거나 드물게 나타나기 때문에 하루 전체의 실현변동성을 정확히 계산하는데 문제가 발생한다. 이를 해결하기 위해 제안되어진 장외거래 수익률을 여러 가지 방법으로 반영한 다양한 실현변동성의 추정치들에 대한 검토가 이루어진다. 실제 데이터의 실현변동성 추정치들의 예측정확성을 비교하기 위해 미국의 NASDAQ 지수와 S&P500 지수와 우리나라의 KOSPI 지수와 원/달러환율이 분석된다. 적분변동성의 불편추정치인 다음날의 로그수익률의 제곱을 기준으로 일일 실현 변동성의 추정치들은 비교되어지며 비교를 위해 절대평균오차(MAE)와 제곱평균오차근(RMSE)이 이용된다. 또한 통계적 추론을 위하여 Model Confidence Set(MCS) 방법과 Diebold-Mariano 검정법을 사용한다. 세 가지 주가지수 데이터에 대해 동일한 최적 방법이 선택되어지는데, 장외시간 수익률을 이용하여 장내시간 실현변동성의 크기 조정을 한 방법이다.
