Do precious metal spot prices influence each other? Evidence from a nonparametric causality-in-quantiles approach

Abstract: Using a quantile causality approach, we examine the causal relationship among the spot prices of precious metals (gold, silver, platinum and palladium) through mean and variance. This methodology also allows investigation of the causality among precious metals during recessions, booms and normal market states. Employing daily spot price data from April 2000 to July 2016 we found evidence of bi-directional causality in mean and variance among the prices of precious metals. Results indicate a strong causality fo… Show more

“…Overall, our results show that futures returns lead to spot returns, which confirms the dominant contribution of the futures market toward price discovery in commodity markets. Our results are in line with the strand of literature supporting bidirectional causality (such as Bhatia et al 2018 ; Dash et al 2010 ) and contradicts the strand supporting unidirectional causality from the futures market to the spot market and otherwise (e.g., Jena et al 2018 ; Joseph et al 2014 ; Srinivasan, 2012 ). However, our findings complete this literature from at least two aspects.…”

“…The latter authors studied the effect of oil price shocks volatility on macroeconomic variables and viceversa. Moreover, a number of researchers such as Reboredo (2013), Behmiri and Manera (2015), Raza et al (2016) and Bhatia et al (2018) investigate impacts of oil volatility shocks on commodity markets. However, all these studies are limited to models with constant coefficients.…”

“…Author argues that Bitcoin is not a safe port due to its price volatility, except China. Bhatia et al (2018) discuss the relationship between gold, silver, platinum and palladium prices with causality analysis. In this context, the authors examine the period of April 2000-June 2016.…”
