We comprehensively investigate the usefulness of tail risk measures proposed in the literature. We evaluate their statistical as well as their economic validity. The option-implied measure of Bollerslev and Todorov (2011b) () performs best overall. While some other tail risk measures excel at specialized tasks, performs well in all tests: First, can predict both future tail events and future tail volatility. Second, it has predictive power for returns in both the time series and the cross-section, as well as for real economic activity. Finally, a simulation analysis shows that the main driver of performance is measurement error.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Econometrics serves as an outlet for important, high quality, new research in both theoretical and applied econometrics. The scope of the Journal includes papers dealing with identification, estimation, testing, decision, and prediction issues encountered in economic research. Classical Bayesian statistics, and machine learning methods, are decidedly within the range of the Journal''s interests. The Annals of Econometrics is a supplement to the Journal of Econometrics.
