Abstract
This article investigates the crude oil volatility index (OVX) forecasting from the perspective of cross-market asymmetric effects of Chinese stock market jumps. We calculate six kinds of positive and negative jumps based on the high-frequency data of stock returns which are used to represent the asymmetric shocks of stock markets. Principal component analysis (PCA) and momentum of predictability (MoP) strategy are employed separately to synthesize the information of asymmetric jumps. Our empirical results find that considering the positive and negative jumps in Chinese stock market helps to improve the forecasting ability of OVX, especially under the MoP strategy. The out-of-sample model confidence set (MCS) tests and Diebold-Mariano (DM) tests, the evaluation of economic significance and the robustness tests further verify our results.
