TY - UNPD A1 - Diebold, Francis X. A1 - Liu, Laura A1 - Yılmaz, Kamil T1 - Commodity connectedness T2 - Center for Financial Studies (Frankfurt am Main): CFS working paper series ; No. 575 N2 - We use variance decompositions from high-dimensional vector autoregressions to characterize connectedness in 19 key commodity return volatilities, 2011-2016. We study both static (full-sample) and dynamic (rolling-sample) connectedness. We summarize and visualize the results using tools from network analysis. The results reveal clear clustering of commodities into groups that match traditional industry groupings, but with some notable differences. The energy sector is most important in terms of sending shocks to others, and energy, industrial metals, and precious metals are themselves tightly connected.
