Abstract

There is a growing literature on the realized volatility (View the MathML source) forecasting of asset returns using high-frequency data. We explore the possibility of forecasting View the MathML source with factor analysis; once considering the significant jumps. A real high-frequency financial data application suggests that the factor based approach is of significant potential interest and novelty.
