Volatility Is Log-Normal—But Not for the Reason You Think
It is impossible to discriminate between the commonly used stochastic volatility models of Heston, log-normal, and 3-over-2 on the basis of exponentially weighted averages of daily returns—even though it appears so at first sight. However, with a 5-

Stock Returns and Cash Flows: A New Asset Pricing Approach
This study is focused on a non-conventional profitability measure, at least in terms of assets pricing models, where dividends or profits are widely used. The attention is focused on a proxy measure of Operating Cash Flows: the "Ebitda after Capex".

FORECASTING MODEL OF AGRICULTURE COMMODITY OF VALUE EXPORT OF COFFEE; APPLICATION OF ARIMA MODEL
Indonesia is currently one of the largest coffee producers in the world, and involved in exporting coffee countries. The financial series data such as export value of coffee is highly volatile in both mean and variance.

Trading using Hidden Markov Models during COVID-19 turbulences
Obtaining higher than market returns is a difficult goal to achieve, especially in times of turbulence such as the COVID-19 crisis, which tested the resilience of many models and algorithms.

Volatility of Volatility and Tail Risk Premiums [PDF]
This paper reports on tail risk premiums in two tail risk hedging strategies: the S&P 500 puts and the VIX calls. As a new measure of tail risk, we suggest using a model-free, risk-neutral measure of the volatility of volatility implied by a cross section of the VIX options, which we call the VVIX index.

A VOLATILITY-OF-VOLATILITY EXPANSION OF THE OPTION PRICES IN THE SABR STOCHASTIC VOLATILITY MODEL [PDF]
We propose a new type of asymptotic expansion for the transition probability density function (or heat kernel) of certain parabolic partial differential equations (PDEs) that appear in option pricing. As other, related methods developed by Costanzino, Hagan, Gatheral, Lesniewski, Pascucci, and their collaborators, among others, our method is based on ...

A new measure of volatility using induced heavy moving averages
The volatility is a dispersion technique widely used in statistics and economics. This paper presents a new way to calculate volatility by using different extensions of the ordered weighted average (OWA) operator.

Perpetual callable American volatility options in a mean-reverting volatility model [PDF]
This paper investigates problems associated with the valuation of callable American volatility put options. Our approach involves modeling volatility dynamics as a mean-reverting 3/2 volatility process. We first propose a pricing formula for the perpetual American knock-out put.

We introduce the concept of virtual volatility. This simple but new measure shows how to quantify the uncertainty in the forecast of the drift component of a random walk. The virtual volatility also is a useful tool in understanding the stochastic process for a given portfolio.

Empirical Analysis of Stochastic Volatility Model by Hybrid Monte Carlo Algorithm [PDF]
The stochastic volatility model is one of volatility models which infer latent volatility of asset returns. The Bayesian inference of the stochastic volatility (SV) model is performed by the hybrid Monte Carlo (HMC) algorithm which is superior to other Markov Chain Monte Carlo methods in sampling volatility variables.
