3 Fig. 1: S&P 500. Daily negative returns (losses), Realized Variance (RV) and Jump component (J) from January 1, 2000 December 31, Red dots indicate days for which a threshold set at the 98th quantile of the loss distribution is exceeded.

4 Following Davison and Smith (1990), the tail of the conditional distribution of Y t can be decomposed as Pr(Y t > y F t 1 ) = Pr(Y t > u F t 1 ) Pr(Y t u > y Y t > u, F t 1 ) where F t 1 is the information set of the process up to time t 1. φ t = Pr(Y t > u F t 1 ) a dynamic model such as a generalized linear model [or a non-homogeneous Poisson process for the counts N u (t)] Pr(Y t u > y Y t > u, F t 1 ) a GP distribution with parameters depending on covariates

5 Dynamic EVT Modeling in Finance Requires finding an economically sound source of information that can be used to explain the time-varying behaviour of the extremes. Current approaches exploit information in past daily exceedances. Chavez-Demoulin et al (2005) suggest : using a self-exciting process to model the probability of exceeding a high threshold of the loss distribution, and use a time-varying GP distribution with the past exceedances as covariates to model the size of the excesses. Alternatively, Chavez-Demoulin et al (2014) model the intensity parameter of the non-homogeneous Poisson process describing the exceedance rate and the time-varying scale parameter of the GP with non-parametric Bayesian smoothers.

6 F t : information set generated by the daily price path high-frequency (HF) data, i.e. intra-daily returns augment the available information set with HF data new information set H t where F t H t Realized Peaks-over-threshold [Bee, Dupuis and Trapin (2016)]

7 Realized measures are non-parametric estimators of the variation of the price path of an asset. They ignore the variation of prices overnight and sometimes the variation in the first few minutes of the trading day when recorded prices may contain large errors. Good background for realized measures : Barndorff-Nielsen and Shephard (2007) and Andersen et al. (2009). Let r t, = p t p t be the discretely sampled -period return on day t of the log-price. The most common realized measure is the realized variance (RV), RV t = N rt 1+j, 2, j=1 where N = 1/. It can be shown that, if prices are observed without noise then, as 0, this measure consistently estimates the quadratic variation of the price process on day t.

8 When the price process includes a jump component, the quadratic variation contains the contributions of both continuous and discontinuous sample paths. As these two components may contain different sources of information, define the bipower variation (BV) BV t = π 2 N r t 1+j, r t 1+(j 1), j=2 which consistently estimates the variation due to the continuous sample path. The jump variation J t can then be estimated by taking the difference between RV and BV, J t = max(0, RV t BV t ).

14 We know that temperature does not follow the assumptions made for the price process. We assumed price process P t = exp (p t ) is given by the stochastic integral Z t p t = p 0 + σ s db s, 0 where B s is a standard Brownian motion, and σ s is some (possibly random) process for which the integrated variance, Z t IV = σ 2 s ds, 0 is well defined. It has been show that, as N, RV converges to IV in probability. Moreover, the RV also converges in distribution in the sense that RV (N) IV q2t R t 0 σ 4 s ds, is approximately distributed as N(0,1) when N is large. Does the spirit of high frequency dynamics being informative on low frequency extremes carry over to extremes of temperature time series?

26 Is there a better way to consolidate intra-day temperature dynamics so as to yield a more informative covariate? Unresolved issues, continued... No interesting results for dynamic GP yet. Is there a better way to deal with the seasonality?
