Abstract

This paper examines the dynamical impact of market wide liquidity on the volatility by using the Markov switching-regime approach on the Heterogeneous Autoregressive model of the realized range-based volatility (MS-HAR-RRV-LIQ). First, based on the simple partition of the liquidity measures by their historical means, we find the impact of the market liquidity on the realized range-based volatility (RRV) is non-linear with significantly stronger when the market is fluctuating. Second, by utilizing the method of Markov regimes switching, we find that in sample results, the impact of market liquidity on RRV is dynamics with much stronger when the market is fluctuating. In addition, the impact of liquidity on RRV are persistent for both the fluctuating state and the stable state, which indicate that the impact of liquidity on volatility would remain in its original state unless there are major economic events. Third, in order to eliminate the hidden information of volatility in liquidity measures, we further decompose the liquidity measures to obtain the volatility-adjusted liquidity, and find that the impact of liquidity driven by the component of liquidity uncorrelated with volatility on market volatility is also dynamics with much stronger when the market is fluctuating. Finally, out-of-sample results suggest that the models of HAR-RRV-LIQ and their corresponding volatility-adjusted liquidity models with regimes switching can increase the forecasting ability significantly than those without regime switching.
