Abstract:

Nonlinear dynamic volatility has been observed in many financial and econometric time series. The recently proposed quantile periodogram offers an alternative way to examine this phenomena in the frequency domain. The quantile periodogram is constructed by applying the powerful technique of quantile regression with harmonic regressors to time series data. This paper presents a number of goodness of fit statistics based on the quantile periodogram for detection and modeling of such nonlinear dynamic volatility. The usefulness of these statistics are demonstrated with real financial data.
