This paper investigates the hedging effectiveness of a dynamic moving window OLS hedging model, formed
using wavelet decomposed time-series. The wavelet transform is applied to calculate the appropriate dynamic
minimum-variance ...
A key issue in the estimation of energy hedges is the hedgers’ attitude towards risk which is encapsulated in the form of the hedgers’ utility function. However, the literature typically uses only one form of utility ...
We examine whether the hedging effectiveness of crude oil futures is affected by asymmetry in the return distribution by applying tail specific metrics to compare the hedging effectiveness of both short and long hedgers. ...
This paper explores integration and contagion among US metropolitan housing markets. The analysis applies Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) house price repeat sales indexes from 384 metropolitan areas to estimate a ...
Risk aversion is a key element of utility maximizing hedge strategies; however, it has typically been assigned an arbitrary value in the literature. This paper instead applies a GARCH-in-Mean (GARCH-M) model to estimate a ...
This paper investigates the risk-return relationship in determination of housing asset
pricing. In so doing, the paper evaluates behavioral hypotheses advanced by Case and
Shiller (1988, 2002, 2009) in studies of boom ...

This paper examines the volatility and covariance dynamics of cash and futures
contracts that underlie the Optimal Hedge Ratio (OHR) across different hedging time
horizons. We examine whether hedge ratios calculated over ...
