1 Are financial markets becoming systemically more unstable? Lucio Maria Calcagnile joint work with Giacomo Bormetti, Michele Treccani, Stefano Marmi, Fabrizio Lillo Parma, 29 th January 25 XVI Workshop on Quantitative Finance / 6
2 Systemic instabilities and high-frequency trading Financial markets are intrinsically unstable and display large price changes There is growing concern about the possible role of automated High Frequency Trading as responsible of large price jumps HFT as means of contagion? (Gerig 22) Debate partly driven by the Flash Crash of 6th May 2 Market interconnection and automated high frequency trading may trigger endogenous mechanisms leading to systemic events. Questions motivating our study: How frequent are systemic events? Has their frequency changed over time? 2 Have they an exogenous origin (reaction to a news) or an endogenous one? 3 How can we model their self-exciting dynamics? 2 / 6
3 Talk outline Data Instability definition and detection Historical evolution of systemic instabilities (years 2 23) Exogenous (news-related) vs endogenous Modelling the self-exciting character of instabilities 3 / 6
4 Data Financial data years 2 23 stocks from the Russell 3 Index (US equity markets, mostly NYSE and NASDAQ) 4 highly liquid stocks for each year -minute closing price data, regular trading session 9:3 a.m. 4: p.m. News data preannounced macroeconomic news (Existing/New Home Sales, monetary policy announcements by FOMC, Manifacturing Index, Consumer Confidence/Sentiment,... ) with announcement time within the US trading session 5 26 news per year 4 / 6
5 Defining and detecting instabilities Jump: r t σ t > θ r t = ln pt p t (logarithmic returns) σ 2 t = cα i ( α)i r t i r t i, α /3 (proxy of local volatility) θ = 4, 5, 6,... (jump threshold) We study the statistical properties of the cojump multiplicity time series: M t = {assets} { rt σt >θ} M t {,,..., N = 4} 5 / 6

8 θ = 4 θ = 8 θ = 6 θ = log ( Historical 2 view Cojump frequency (%) θ = 4 θ = 6 θ = 8 θ = Year Year Co log CCDF Year M Multiplicity (M) Left (M 3): sensitivity of the results to the jump threshold θ the increase of systemic events is robust with respect to θ Right: overall multiplicity distribution multiplicity seems to follow a power-law distribution and thus the probability of systemic cojumps is quite large multiplicity distributions become fatter-tailed over the years tail exponent is close to.5 (2, 22), similarly to what observed in Joulin et al. (28) 8 / 6

Year synchronous co-occurrences are quite rare letting some minutes ( 5) to pass after a news, we are able to attribute many systemic events to a news, but waiting more (, 5 minutes) does not provide a further significant gain We thus say that a systemic instability event has an exogenous origin if it happens within a 5-minute time window from a news release. 9 / 6

11 Self-exciting cojumps Bormetti et al. (24) showed the strong self-exciting character of market price instabilities: the single-asset jump dynamics is well described by a -D Hawkes process an asset-based Hawkes factor model captures the self and cross-asset jump clustering features (factor: M 4 when N = 2, M 6 when N = 4) However, the factor model approach ignores the cojump multiplicity above the factor-defining threshold. Deeper investigation on the role of the multiplicity: (To what degree) does a higher multiplicity of a systemic instability anticipate more systemic instabilities? [ ] P t (t, t + τ] s.t. M t J M t M 2 (To what degree) does a higher multiplicity of a systemic instability precede systemic instabilities of higher multiplicity? [ ] E M t M t M, t (t, t + τ] s.t. M t > G. Bormetti, L. M.

12 Hawkes processes (Hawkes, 97) A Hawkes process is a self-exciting point process defined by the intensity λ(t) = µ + ν(t t i ) = µ + α e β(t t i ), t i <t t i <t where µ is a deterministic function called the base intensity and ν is a positive decreasing weight function. 2 / 6
13 Hawkes processes (Hawkes, 97) A Hawkes process is a self-exciting point process defined by the intensity λ(t) = µ + ν(t t i ) = µ + α e β(t t i ), t i <t t i <t where µ is a deterministic function called the base intensity and ν is a positive decreasing weight function. A multidimensional Hawkes process is defined by a vector of intensities N λ i (t) = µ i + α ij e β ij (t t i ), i =,..., N. j= t j <t Multidimensional Hawkes processes are able to describe self and cross excitation between signals, but are difficult to calibrate. 2 / 6

18 Conclusions In recent years (from 2 to 23) cross-asset synchronisation of price instabilities increased significantly While the number of single-asset instabilities has diminished, modern financial markets have become more systemically unstable Cojump multiplicity distributions are fatter-tailed in recent years, showing that systemic instabilities involving larger and larger parts of the markets are becoming more and more frequent Only a fraction of all systemic instabilities has a clear exogenous origin, while many others may be endogenously generated Higher cojump multiplicity implies both higher probability of new systemic events in the near future and systemic events with higher multiplicity An N-dimensional Hawkes process applied to the vector of multiplicities, 2,..., N = 4 effectively describes these two effects 6 / 6

20 Model parameter estimation MLE of our model s parameters would require the development of an ad hoc code to make it computationally feasible. We follow instead a heuristic calibration procedure, exploring the parameter region on a.5-spaced mesh Weighted least squares approach to measure the discrepancy between results on real data and model data We consider χ 2 = M {5,,...65,7} (a d a m) 2 δ 2 d + δ2 m where a d (M), a m(m) are the average values of the indicator functions on real data and on model data (see figure at slide 5) and δ d (M), δ m(m) the standard errors We search parameter values that minimise χ 2,3 +.5 χ 2 2 For the 23 data we find: η =.5, β =.6, γ = 2.65, 6 / 6
