  • Economic Gains of Realized Volatility in the Brazilian Stock Market
    TEXTO PARA DISCUSSÃO No. 624 Economic gains of realized volatility in the Brazilian stock market Francisco Santos Márcio Garcia Marcelo Medeiros DEPARTAMENTO DE ECONOMIA www.econ.puc-rio.br Economic gains of realized volatility in the Brazilian stock market Abstract This paper evaluates the economic gains associated with following a volatility timing strategy based on a multivariate model of realized volatility. To study this issue we build a high frequency database with the most actively traded Brazilian stocks. Comparing with traditional volatility methods, we find that economic gains associated with realized measures perform well when estimation risk is controlled and increase proportionally to the target return. When expected returns are bootstrapped, however, performance fees are not significant, which is an indication that economic gains of realized volatility are offset by estimation risk. Keywords: Realized volatility, utility, forecasting. JEL Code: G11, G17. 1. Introduction Given the growth of financial markets and the increasing complexity of its securities, volatility models play an essential role to help the task of risk management and investment decisions. Since realization of volatility returns based on daily data is not observable, the traditional approach is to invoke parametric assumptions regarding the evolution of the first and second moments of the returns, which is the idea behind ARCH and stochastic volatility models. Nevertheless, these models fail to capture some stylized facts such as autocorrelation persistence and fat tail of returns. The availability of intraday data opens up the possibility of approximating volatility directly from asset returns. The use of an observable variable, in turn, facilitates the task of dealing with problems that involves a significant number of assets.
