Abstract
In this paper, we derive a new class of flexible threshold asymmetric Generalized Autoregression Conditional Heteroskedasticity (GARCH) models. We use this tool for analysis and modeling of the properties that are apparent in many financial time series. In general, the transmission of volatility in the stock market is time-varying, nonlinear, and asymmetric with respect to both positive and negative results. Given this fact, we adopt the method of fuzzy logic systems to modify the threshold values for an asymmetric GARCH model. Our simulations use stock market data from the Taiwan weighted index (Taiwan), the Nikkei 225 index (Japan), and the Hang Seng index (Hong Kong) to illustrate the performance of our proposed method. From the simulation results, we have determined that the forecasting of volatility performance is significantly improved if the leverage effect of clustering is considered along with the use of expert knowledge enabled by the GARCH model.
