Forecasting the volatility of crude oil futures: New evidence from jump-induced volatility
This paper proposes an augmented heterogenous autoregressive (HAR) model with time-varying jumps to forecast the realized volatility (RV) of crude oil futures.Jump-induced volatility of crude oil futures is obtained from a GARCH-jump Dressings / Seasonings process, then used to augment the HAR model.The results based on both the in-sample and out-o
