Then we use Markov Switching models to test for asymmetries in seasonal fluctuations across different market conditions. We reject the existence of stochastic seasonality for all freight series while results on deterministic seasonality indicate increases in rates in June, October, and November. We also found that seasonal patterns vary across market conditions, revealing that seasonal rate movements are more pronounced when the market is in downturn. Moreover, we found that the seasonal movements present similar patterns across different trading routes.

This relative price response cannot be explained by herding behavior. Furthermore, prices for control commodities did not respond to the war at all, contradicting the herding theory.

I make use of both an over-dispersed Poisson regression model estimated by maximum likelihood and a Bayesian hierarchical negative binomial regression model where key elements of the industry microstructure are specified and explicitly modeled. I find evidence that short-term debt is associated with lower rates of drilling and more modest evidence that long-term debt has a slightly positive relationship with exploratory drilling.

Japan, Germany, France, and Italy as oil importers can predict low and median oil volatility. The strong predictability of G7 stock volatility may be attributable to their significant impact on the business cycle and investor sentiment. This asymmetric prediction ability arises not only from the average volatility shocks at various quantiles but also from the bad and good stock volatility at different quantiles. Further research suggests that bad stock volatility appears to be more predictable than good stock volatility, especially in high oil price fluctuations. Furthermore, the superiority and effectiveness of the quantile autoregression model in predicting oil volatility are proven to be applicable to emerging markets.
