Abstrakt: | This work considers the causal relationship between the news-based uncertainty measures and WTI crude oil price within the quantile causality framework by using daily data for a period from January 4, 2000, to November 14, 2016. We find that the Granger non-causality test in quantiles between crude oil returns and the news-based uncertainty measures uncover the causal relationship over different levels of conditional quantiles of the crude oil returns. In particular, there exists a strong causal relationship in the tails of the crude oil returns distribution. |
