This book studies the information spillover among financial markets and explores the intraday effect and ACD models with high frequency data. This book also contributes theoretically by providing a new statistical methodology with comparative advantages for analyzing comovements between two time series. It explores this new method by testing the information spillover between the Chinese stock market and the international market, futures market and spot market. Using the high frequency data, this book investigates the intraday effect and examines which type of ACD model is particularly suited in capturing financial duration dynamics. The book will be of invaluable use to scholars and graduate students interested in comovements among different financial markets and financial market microstructure and to investors and regulation departments looking to improve their risk management.

It is common that more frequent trades are expected to be followed by shorter durations between consecutive transactions, while less frequent trades are expected to be followed by longer durations. Autoregressive conditional duration (ACD) model was developed to model transaction durations, based on the assumption that the expected average duration is dependent on the past durations. Empirically, transaction durations possess much longer memory than expected. The autocorrelation functions of durations decay slowly and are still significant after a large number of lags. Therefore, the fractionally integrated autoregressive conditional duration (FIACD) model was proposed to model this kind of long memory behavior. The ACD model possesses short memory as the dependence of the past durations will die out exponentially. The FIACD model possesses much longer memory as the dependence of the past durations will decay hyperbolically. However, the modeling result would be misleading if the actual dependence of the past durations decays between exponential rate and hyperbolic rate. Neither of these models can truly reveal the memory properties in this case. This thesis proposes a new duration model, named as the hyperbolic autoregressive conditional duration (HYACD) model, which combines the ACD model and the FIACD model into one. It possesses both short memory and long memory properties and allows the dependence of the past durations to decay between the exponential rate and the hyperbolic rate. It also indicates whether the dependence is close to short memory or long memory. The model is applied to the transaction data of AT&T and McDonald stocks traded on NYSE and statistically positive results are obtained when it is compared to the ACD model and the FIACD model.
