Do U.S. economic conditions at the state level predict the realized volatility of oil-price returns? A quantile machine-learning approach [PDF]
Because the U.S. is a major player in the international oil market, it is interesting to study whether aggregate and state-level economic conditions can predict the subsequent realized volatility of oil price returns.
