Statistical properties, dynamic conditional correlation, and scaling analysis: evidence from international financial markets high-frequency data
Read abstract
High-frequency data offers unparalleled insights into market dynamics, facilitating the analysis of statistical properties, dynamic correlations, and scaling behaviours with a precision previously unattainable. These Statistical Properties are essential framework for understanding and modelling the interactions between global financial markets over time. The aim of this study was to investigate the dynamic conditional correlations and scaling behaviour of high-frequency data from January,1 2010 to December 31, 2020. Using the S&P 500, FTSE 100, Nikkei 225, HKEX and DAX as sampled financial markets, the results revealed significant differences in correlation patterns across the markets, as well as fractal-like scaling behaviour. The relationship between the S&P 500-FTSE 100 and S&P 500-DAX supports trend-following strategies, while the Nikkei 225-HKEX and Nikkei 225-FTSE 100 may be closer to random-walk behaviour. This study advances the frontier of knowledge on high-frequency data and offers insights into the temporal relationships and scaling properties between financial markets.
