gjr
GJR conditional variance time series model
Description
Use gjr
to specify a univariate GJR (Glosten, Jagannathan, and Runkle) model. The gjr
function returns a gjr
object specifying the functional form of a GJR(P,Q) model, and stores its parameter values.
The key components of a gjr
model include the:
GARCH polynomial, which is composed of lagged conditional variances. The degree is denoted by P.
ARCH polynomial, which is composed of the lagged squared innovations.
Leverage polynomial, which is composed of lagged squared, negative innovations.
Maximum of the ARCH and leverage polynomial degrees, denoted by Q.
P is the maximum nonzero lag in the GARCH polynomial, and Q is the maximum nonzero lag in the ARCH and leverage polynomials. Other model components include an innovation mean model offset, a conditional variance model constant, and the innovations distribution.
All coefficients are unknown (NaN
values) and estimable unless you specify their values using name-value pair argument syntax. To estimate models containing all or partially unknown parameter values given data, use estimate
. For completely specified models (models in which all parameter values are known), simulate or forecast responses using simulate
or forecast
, respectively.
Creation
Description
returns a zero-degree conditional variance Mdl
= gjrgjr
object.
creates a GJR conditional variance model object (Mdl
= gjr(P
,Q
)Mdl
) with a GARCH polynomial with a degree of P
and ARCH and leverage polynomials each with a degree of Q
. All polynomials contain all consecutive lags from 1 through their degrees, and all coefficients are NaN
values.
This shorthand syntax enables you to create a template in which you specify the polynomial degrees explicitly. The model template is suited for unrestricted parameter estimation, that is, estimation without any parameter equality constraints. However, after you create a model, you can alter property values using dot notation.
sets properties or additional options using name-value pair arguments. Enclose each property name in quotes. For example, Mdl
= gjr(Name,Value
)'ARCHLags',[1 4],'ARCH',{0.2 0.3}
specifies the two ARCH coefficients in ARCH
at lags 1
and 4
.
This longhand syntax enables you to create more flexible models.
Input Arguments
The shorthand syntax provides an easy way for you to create model templates that are suitable for unrestricted parameter estimation. For example, to create a GJR(1,2) model containing unknown parameter values, enter:
Mdl = gjr(1,2);
P
— GARCH polynomial degree
nonnegative integer
GARCH polynomial degree, specified as a nonnegative integer. In the GARCH polynomial and at time t, MATLAB® includes all consecutive conditional variance terms from lag t – 1 through lag t – P
.
You can specify this argument using the
gjr
(P,Q)
shorthand syntax only.
If P
> 0, then you must specify Q
as a positive integer.
Example: gjr(1,1)
Data Types: double
Q
— ARCH polynomial degree
nonnegative integer
ARCH polynomial degree, specified as a nonnegative integer. In the ARCH polynomial and at time t, MATLAB includes all consecutive squared innovation terms (for the ARCH polynomial) and squared, negative innovation terms (for the leverage polynomial) from lag t – 1 through lag t – Q
.
You can specify this argument using the
gjr
(P,Q)
shorthand syntax only.
If P
> 0, then you must specify Q
as a positive integer.
Example: gjr(1,1)
Data Types: double
Specify optional pairs of arguments as
Name1=Value1,...,NameN=ValueN
, where Name
is
the argument name and Value
is the corresponding value.
Name-value arguments must appear after other arguments, but the order of the
pairs does not matter.
Before R2021a, use commas to separate each name and value, and enclose
Name
in quotes.
The longhand syntax
enables you to create models in which some or all coefficients are known. During estimation,
estimate
imposes equality constraints on any known parameters.
Example: 'ARCHLags',[1 4],'ARCH',{NaN NaN}
specifies a GJR(0,4) model and unknown, but nonzero, ARCH coefficient matrices at lags 1
and 4
.

Description
— Model description
string scalar | character vector
Model description, specified as a string scalar or character vector. gjr
stores the value as a string scalar. The default value describes the parametric form of the model, for example

Distribution)"
.
Data Types: string
| char

gjr
stores the value as a string scalar.
Example: "StockReturn"
Data Types: string
| char
Note
All
NaN
-valued model parameters, which include coefficients and the t-innovation-distribution degrees of freedom (if present), are estimable. When you pass the resultinggjr
object and data toestimate
, MATLAB estimates allNaN
-valued parameters. During estimation,estimate
treats known parameters as equality constraints, that is,estimate
holds any known parameters fixed at their values.Typically, the lags in the ARCH and leverage polynomials are the same, but their equality is not a requirement. Differing polynomials occur when:
Either
ARCH{Q}
orLeverage{Q}
meets the near-zero exclusion tolerance. In this case, MATLAB excludes the corresponding lag from the polynomial.You specify polynomials of differing lengths by specifying
ARCHLags
orLeverageLags
, or by setting theARCH
orLeverage
property.
In either case,
Q
is the maximum lag between the two polynomials.

Estimate GJR Model
Fit a GJR model to an annual time series of stock price index returns from 1861-1970.
Load the Nelson-Plosser data set. Convert the yearly stock price indices (SP

The return series does not seem to have a conditional mean offset, and seems to exhibit volatility clustering. That is, the variability is smaller for earlier years than it is for later years. For this example, assume that an GJR(1,1) model is appropriate for this series.
Create a GJR(1,1) model. The conditional mean offset is zero by default. The software includes a conditional variance model constant by default.

More About
GJR Model
The Glosten, Jagannathan, and Runkle (GJR) model is a dynamic model that addresses conditional heteroscedasticity, or volatility clustering, in an innovations process. Volatility clustering occurs when an innovations process does not exhibit significant autocorrelation, but the variance of the process changes with time.
The GJR model is a generalization of the GARCH model that is appropriate for modeling asymmetric volatility clustering [1]. Specifically, the model posits that the current conditional variance is the sum of these linear processes, with coefficients:
Past conditional variances (the GARCH component or polynomial).
Past squared innovations (the ARCH component or polynomial).
Past squared, negative innovations (the leverage component or polynomial).
Consider the time series
where The GJR(P,Q) conditional variance process, , has the form
The table shows how the variables correspond to the properties of the gjr
object. In the table, I[x < 0] = 1, and 0 otherwise.
Variable | Description | Property |
---|---|---|
μ | Innovation mean model constant offset | 'Offset' |
κ > 0 | Conditional variance model constant | 'Constant' |
γj | GARCH component coefficients | 'GARCH' |
αj | ARCH component coefficients | 'ARCH' |
ξj | Leverage component coefficients | 'Leverage' |
zt | Series of independent random variables with mean 0 and variance 1 | 'Distribution' |
For stationarity and positivity, GJR models use these constraints:
GJR models are appropriate when negative shocks of contribute more to volatility than positive shocks [2].
If all leverage coefficients are zero, then the GJR model reduces to the GARCH model. Because the GARCH model is nested in the GJR model, you can use likelihood ratio tests to compare a GARCH model fit against a GJR model fit.

Version History
Introduced in R2012aR2023a: Name a GJR model response series
Name the response series of a GJR model by setting the
SeriesName
property of the associated model to a string
scalar. When you supply input response data to model object functions in a table or
timetable, the functions choose the variable with name SeriesName
as the response variable by default.
R2018a: Describe a GJR model
Describe a GJR model by setting the Description
property to a
string scalar.
R2018a: Use indices that are consistent with MATLAB cell array indexing
The indices of cell arrays of lag operator polynomial coefficients follow MATLAB cell array indexing rules.
Affected model properties are GARCH
, ARCH
, and
Leverage
properties.
You cannot access any lag-zero coefficients by using an index of
0
. For example,Mdl.ARCH{0}
issues an error.Remove any instances of such indices of zero from your code. The value of all lag-zero coefficients is
1
except for the lag operator polynomial corresponding to theARCH
property, which has the value0
.You cannot index beyond the maximal lag in the polynomial. For example, if
Mdl.P
is 4, thenMdl.ARCH{p}
issues an error whenp
is greater than4
. For details on the maximal lags of the lag operator polynomials, see the corresponding property descriptions.Remove any instances of such indices beyond the maximal lag from your code. All coefficients beyond the maximal lag are
0
.
R2018a: Models store innovation distribution name as a string scalar
The Name
field of the Distribution
property of
gjr
model objects stores the innovation distribution name
as a string scalar, for example, "Gaussian"
for Gaussian innovations.
Before R2018a, MATLAB stored the innovation distribution name as a character vector, for example
'Gaussian'
for Gaussian innovations. Although most text-data
operations accept character vectors and string scalars for text-data input, the two data
types have some differences. For details, see Text in String and Character Arrays.
