Download PDF Abstract Every empirical study of financial returns since Mandelbrot (1963) has converged on the same short list of stylized facts: heavy polynomial tails, anomalous scaling of volatility with the aggregation horizon, power-law persistence of absolute returns, multiscaling across moment orders, and vanishing linear autocorrelation. These regularities are robust Read more…
