Forecast Accuracy Tests, Consistent Loss Functions and Relevant Applications

講題摘要:

  The first part of the presentation is based on the paper “Testing Forecast Accuracy of Expectiles and Quantiles with the Extremal Consistent Loss Functions”. In this paper, we develop statistical tests for comparing performances of forecasting expectiles and quantiles of a random variable under consistent loss functions. The test statistics are constructed with the extremal consistent loss functions of Ehm et al. (2016). The null hypothesis of the tests is that a benchmark forecast at least performs equally well as a competitive one under all extremal consistent loss functions. It can be shown that if such a null holds, the benchmark will also perform at least equally well as the competitor under all consistent loss functions. We discuss asymptotic properties of the proposed test statistics and propose to use the re-centered bootstrap to construct their empirical distributions. Through simulations, we show the proposed test statistics perform reasonably well. We then apply the proposed method on (1) re-examining abilities of some often-used predictors on forecasting risk premium of the S&P500 index; (2) comparing performances of experts'' forecasts on annual growth of U.S. real gross domestic product; (3) evaluating performances of estimated daily value at risk of the S&P500 index.

  The second part of the presentation is about applications of some newly proposed consistent loss functions. We will introduce how to estimate Value-at-Risk (VaR) and expected shortfall (ES) with a consistent loss function proposed by Fissler and Ziegel (2016). With the FZ loss function, we propose a two-step method to conduct the estimations. We then estimate various models and compare their performances of in-sample estimations and out-of-sample forecasts. We find models added with realized volatility as the exogenous variable perform better. Other possible applications will also be discussed.
