Generalized autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity (GARCH) for predicting volatility in Stock Market
Abstract
Volatility plays an important role in financial markets and has held the attention of academics and practitioners. Using Generalized autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity (GARCH) is one of the effective perspective for forecasting volatility. This study focused on comparing GARCH (P, Q) model with GJR-GARCH (P, Q) model and EGARCH (P, Q) model to make prediction more reliable and accurate. The results suggested that both GARCH (P, Q) model and GJR-GARCH (P, Q) model are good choices for forecasting volatility in financial market, especially for describing heteroscedastic time series. GARCH models are consistent with various forms of efficient market theory. These theories state that asset returns observed in the past cannot improve the forecasts of asset returns in the future.
