报告摘要:Abstract: Pure-jump processes have been increasingly popular in modeling the high-frequency financial data, due partially to their versatility and flexibility. In the meantime, several statistical tests have been proposed in the literature to check the validity of using pure-jump models. However, these tests suffer from several drawbacks, such as rather stringent conditions and slow rates of convergence. In this paper, we propose a different test, based on the realized characteristic function, to check whether the underlying process of a high frequency data can be modeled by a pure-jump process. It turns out that the proposed test has a much faster convergence rate of order $O(n^{1/2})$ (n is the sample size) versus the usually $o(n^{1/4})$ available for existing tests; it is applicable much more generally than previous tests, e.g., it is robust to jumps of infinite variation and flexible modeling of the diffusion component. Simulation studies justify our findings and the test is also applied to some real high-frequency financial data.
