Industry Portfolio Volatility Connections and Industry Portfolio Returns
International Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper tracks dynamic connections that form among daily US industry portfolio return volatilities using a Bayesian time‐varying parameter VAR model. Market participants often focus on sectors to filter vast amounts of information, and this focus results in cross‐industry return predictability. We characterise connections that form over the
