The empirical analysis reveals a high level of inflation spillover within the network of countries under consideration, with the euro area being the main shock transmitter. However, the spillover level varies across inflation quantiles. The estimation results suggest that during a high inflation regime, the level of spillover across the network is much higher than in spillover during normal inflation regimes.

Market broadening is measured by the price returns of two exchange-traded funds (ETFs): the S&amp;P 500 Equal Weight ETF (RSP) and the Russell 2000 Equal Weight ETF (IWM). We employ an Exponential Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity (EGARCH) model to ensure the conditional variance remains positive, even when ETF returns are negative. Our findings support an inverted-U hypothesis, suggesting that market gains were more widely dispersed until 2014 but have since become concentrated among mega-cap stocks. More importantly, the results indicate that broadening market participation significantly reduces future volatility. This effect is consistent regardless of whether market broadening is measured using RSP or IWM. Our estimated time-varying GARCH series exhibit strong co-movements and co-jumpings with the VIX index, accurately capturing most of its turning points and critical events.

To analyze the spillover effects of stock market risk among RCEP countries, this paper constructs a comprehensive framework for systemic risk management encompassing three aspects: risk measurement, connectivity analysis and identification of influential factors. Specifically, we apply the CoES as a risk measurement metric to construct a tail risk network. Based on risk decomposition in sliding windows, we examine the hierarchical propagation pathways, intensities and evolution mechanisms of systemic risk in RCEP stock markets across four levels (system, group, country and institution). Subsequently, we use a tail-event driven dynamic network quantile regression (TEDNQR) model to explore the influence of network topology, node heterogeneity, and common factors on stock price changes across different quantile levels. Finally, we employ robustness analysis based on goodness-of-fit and DM test to validate the reliability of our methodology and conclusions. The empirical results indicate that both the risk performance and the influential factors of RCEP stock markets exhibit time-varying and tail characteristics. Overall, simultaneous network effects significantly and positively impact stock movements, playing a dominant role among all factors.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47831,"journal":{"name":"North American Journal of Economics and Finance","volume":"76 ","pages":"Article 102317"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143103411","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Consequently, how to hedge such risks has become an urgent issue for investors to consider. To construct an effective hedge tool, in this paper we mainly explore the pricing problem of catastrophe equity put options (CatEPuts) with liquidity risk. In the context of losses caused by catastrophic events, we use Markov modulated Poisson processes (MMPP) to depict its intensity. The default event of the option issuer occurring at any time before the expiration of the option and the correlation existing between the stock and the assets of the option issuer are also considered and involved in our model. Under this framework, we obtain a closed-form formula for CatEPuts with liquidity risk and default risk under MMPP by applying Escher transformation and multidimensional normality. Finally, we conduct numerical analysis. By comparing solutions with and without influencing factors, the significance of risk factors and jump diffusion processes are elucidated. It also includes sensitivity analysis to explore the impact of key parameters on the price of CatEPuts. In addition, as an application we explore some realistic cases, such as the measure of <em>VaR</em>.
