Abstract

The article delves into the relationship between economic policy uncertainty (EPU) and the volatility of treasury futures in China and the US. It utilizes GARCH-MIDAS models to analyze how EPU influences the long-term volatility of treasury futures markets. The study covers the period from September 2013 to March 2021, including the COVID-19 pandemic, and finds significant causal effects of EPU on treasury futures volatility. The research highlights the importance of EPU in predicting market volatility and its implications for asset pricing and risk management.
