Abstract

This study assesses return spillovers and hedging dynamics between supply chain tokens and traditional assets, including equities, currencies, bonds, gold, oil, and Bitcoin, using a time-frequency quantile connectedness approach. Findings reveal that while supply chain tokens exhibit weak connectedness with traditional assets during stable periods, heightened market volatility, such as during the COVID-19 pandemic, significantly increases return spillovers, particularly from equities and Bitcoin. Supply chain tokens offer some diversification potential, especially when paired with oil (WTI), but their effectiveness as hedging instruments varies by time horizon and market conditions. Optimal portfolio weights and hedge ratios suggest that investors should dynamically adjust allocations to mitigate risks effectively, particularly during market instability. These insights emphasize the need for adaptable portfolio strategies when integrating supply chain tokens with traditional assets.

期刊介绍： Behavioral and Experimental Finance represent lenses and approaches through which we can view financial decision-making. The aim of the journal is to publish high quality research in all fields of finance, where such research is carried out with a behavioral perspective and / or is carried out via experimental methods. It is open to but not limited to papers which cover investigations of biases, the role of various neurological markers in financial decision making, national and organizational culture as it impacts financial decision making, sentiment and asset pricing, the design and implementation of experiments to investigate financial decision making and trading, methodological experiments, and natural experiments. Journal of Behavioral and Experimental Finance welcomes full-length and short letter papers in the area of behavioral finance and experimental finance. The focus is on rapid dissemination of high-impact research in these areas.
