We apply these tests to a dataset comprising 100 individual S&amp;P 500 constituents from diverse business sectors and the SPY (S&amp;P 500 ETF) to empirically assess the relative magnitude of these components. Our findings strongly support the presence of both Brownian and jump components.

Our findings show that LASSO-based multivariate HAR models employing predictors that capture climate uncertainty generally yield more consistent evidence regarding the accuracy of the realized covariance forecasts, providing further support for the growing evidence that climate related factors significantly drive return and volatility dynamics in financial markets. While international summits and global warming stand out as the dominant climate predictors for realized volatility forecasts, both climate and macroeconomic predictors prove equally important for longer term correlation forecasts. In these forecasts, the U.S. EPU index and natural disasters, along with U.S. climate policy uncertainty, play dominant predictive roles. Our results suggest that the MHAR framework, coupled with DRD decomposition that splits the covariance matrix into a diagonal matrix of realized variances and realized correlations, can be utilized in a high-frequency setting to implement diversification and smart beta strategies for various investment horizons.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":15704,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Empirical Finance","volume":"81 ","pages":"Article 101595"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143157559","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
