通过对现有理论文献的梳理,提炼了五个较为典型的关于高阶矩风险产生机制的理论假设。然后基于时变高阶矩建模思想,将这五个假设统一于同一个计量框架,并进行综合地实证检验,以期发掘具有"占优"作用的理论解释。以沪深股市收益率为样本研究发现,在这五个假设中,仅"波动率反馈"效应和"利空信息揭示"效应获得显著的实证支持。进一步分析指出,这两种效应会同时引起偏度和峰度风险,因而是高阶矩风险的主要产生机制。这一结果可为后续研究发展一个统一的理论框架提供实证参考。
Five pieces of theoretical prediction on the generation of higher order moment risk are refined and thus the corresponding hypotheses are formed after reviewing the existed literature. Employing the idea of modeling time variant higher-order-moment, these five pieces of hypothesis are involved in a unified econometric framework. An empirical analysis is conducted based on such model to find some dominated theoretical explanations. Sampling daily returns from Shanghai and Shenzhen stock market composite index, the results show that there are two hypotheses relevant to volatility feedback effect and bad news revelation effect are significantly supported but the other three are not. Further analysis indicates that these two effects can generate both skewness and kurtosis risk. Therefore, they are implied as the main generation mechanism of higher-order-moment risk. These results get out of the mess of opinions on the generation mechanism of higher-order-moment risk and thus can benefit further exploration of such topic under a unified theoretical framework.
