In view of the intrinsic complexity of the oil market, crude oil prices are influenced by numerous factors that make forecasting very difficult. Recognizing this challenge, numerous approaches have been introduced, but little work has been done concerning the interval-valued prices. To capture the underlying characteristics of crude oil price movements, this paper proposes a two-stage forecasting procedure to forecast interval-valued time series, which generalizes point-valued forecasts to incorporate uncertainty and variability. The empirical results show that our proposed approach significantly outperforms all the benchmark models in terms of both forecasting accuracy and robustness analysis. These results can provide references for decision-makers to understand the trends of crude oil prices and improve the efficiency of economic activities.

Hybrid Forecasting

Crude oil is considered as a crucial energy source in modern days. Consequently, the fluctuation of crude oil prices can cause a significant impact on economic activities. Researchers have proposed many hybrid forecasting models on top of single forecasting methods which are utilized to predict crude oil prices movement more accurately. Nevertheless, many limitations still existed in hybrid forecasting models and models that can predict crude oil prices as accurate as possible is required. The motivations of this review paper are to identify and assess the mostly used crude oil prices forecasting methods and to analyse their current limitations. 12 studies that used “decomposition-and-ensemble” framework was selected for review. Wavelet transform is identified as the mostly used data decomposition method while some limitations have been recognized. Future researches should include more studies to further elucidate the limitations in existing forecasting method so that subsequent forecasting methods can be improved.

This paper investigates factors affecting Vietnam’s stock prices including US stock prices, foreign exchange rates, gold prices and crude oil prices. Using the daily data from 2005 to 2012, the results indicate that Vietnam’s stock prices are influenced by crude oil prices. In addition, Vietnam’s stock prices are also affected significantly by US stock prices, and foreign exchange rates over the period before the 2008 Global Financial Crisis. There is evidence that Vietnam’s stock prices are highly correlated with US stock prices, foreign exchange rates and gold prices for the same period. Furthermore, Vietnam’s stock prices were cointegrated with US stock prices both before and after the crisis, and with foreign exchange rates, gold prices and crude oil prices only during and after the crisis.

The Impact

This paper aims to examine the main determinants of inflation in Vietnam during the period from 2002Q1 to 2013Q2. The cointegration theory and the Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) approach are used to examine the impact of domestic credit, interest rate, budget deficit, and crude oil prices on inflation in both long and short terms. The results show that while there are long-term relations among inflation and the others, such factors as oil prices, domestic credit, and interest rate, in the short run, have no impact on fluctuations of inflation. Particularly, the budget deficit itself actually has a short-run impact, but its level is fundamentally weak. The cause of the current inflation is mainly due to public's expectations of the inflation in the last period. Although the error correction, from the long-run relationship, has affected inflation in the short run, the coefficient is small and insignificant. In other words, it means that the speed of the adjustment is very low or near zero. This also implies that once the relationship among inflation, domestic credit, interest rate, budget deficit, and crude oil prices deviate from the long-term trend, it will take the economy a lot of time to return to the equilibrium state.

Before And After

This paper empirically discovered the inter-linkages between stock and crude oil prices before and after the subprime financial crisis 2008 by using Johansan co-integration and Granger causality techniques to explore both long and short- run relationships.  The whole data set of Nifty index, Nifty energy index, BSE Sensex, BSE energy index and oil prices are divided into two periods; before crisis (from February 15, 2005 to December31, 2007) and after crisis (from January 1, 2008 to December 31, 2018) are collected and analyzed. The results discovered that there is one-way causal relationship from crude oil prices to Nifty index, Nifty energy index, BSE Sensex and BSE energy index but not other way around in both periods. However, a bidirectional causality relationship between BSE Energy index and crude oil prices during post subprime financial crisis 2008. The co-integration results suggested that the absence of long run relationship between crude oil prices and market indices of BSE Sensex, BSE energy index, Nifty index and Nifty energy index before and after subprime financial crisis 2008.
