The first approach is based on the two-step technique suggested by Cheung and Ng (1996), and the second approach is founded on a multivariate generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (GARCH)-type process. The empirical investigations were focused on West Texas Intermediate (WTI) and Brent crude oil cash prices and six major stock indexes, covering daily frequency data for the period 1989-2007. The findings indicate that oil price volatility has, in general, a negative impact on stock market behavior. Also, some asymmetry and persistence on oil price volatility have been detected. These results are consistent with those of previous empirical studies and have many practical implications for managing international portfolios and hedging risk on international equity and crude oil markets.","PeriodicalId":260697,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Energy Markets","volume":"46 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128325838","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We analyze the investment timing and volume of a firm acting in a regulated transmission market. When capping prices, the regulatory authority imposes a ceiling on market prices. Therefore, we use a real option approach, where the cap that limits possible future firm values enters the firm's portfolio as a set of short call options, to derive an optimal pricing rule for regulators. Moreover, by calibrating our model with respect to European electricity markets, it can be shown how deviations from this optimum affect investment behavior.","PeriodicalId":260697,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Energy Markets","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130538188","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We present a regime-switching approach to capture the main characteristics of electricity price dynamics within a supply-demand context: in the presence of stable periods, in which prices fluctuate around some long-run mean, and during turbulent periods, in which prices experience jumps and short-lived spikes of very large magnitude. The proposed approach is flexible enough to incorporate shortages in electricity generation, forced outages and peaks in electricity demand. The empirical analysis, performed to estimate the model on market data by maximum likelihood, offers an interesting agreement with the properties of observed logreturn distributions.","PeriodicalId":260697,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Energy Markets","volume":"65 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132026021","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The robustness of the trading strategies is also tested using the stationary bootstrap approach. Our results indicate that expected market prices in the relative form (spreads) incorporate inefficiencies, which can be translated to abnormal profits through appropriate trading strategies even when high levels of transaction costs (bid-ask spreads) are considered.","PeriodicalId":260697,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Energy Markets","volume":"131 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125682227","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
