Abstract
In this paper, we employ the generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity-mixed data sampling (GARCH-MIDAS) framework to forecast the daily volatility of state-level stock returns in the United States (US) based on monthly metrics of oil price uncertainty (OPU), and relatively broader energy market-related uncertainty index (EUI). We find that over the daily period of (February) 1994 to (September) 2022 and various forecast horizons, in 37 out of the 50 states, the GARCH-MIDAS model with EUI can outperform the benchmark, i.e., the GARCH-MIDAS-realized volatility (RV), which in turn, holds for at most 18 cases under OPU. The statistical evidence is further strengthened when we are able to detect higher utlilty gains delivered for 42 states by the GARCH-MIDAS-EUI in comparison to the GARCH-MIDAS-RV. Our findings have important implications for investors and policymakers.
