Abstract

This paper focuses on the resilience of commodity futures markets specific to shocks of geopolitical risks. Our time-varying resilience measurement stems from the TVP-VAR model. The results show that not all precious metals are resilient to geopolitical disturbances, and only gold does. Nature gas appears to have the worst resilience, and WTI's resilience is enormously unstable. Utilizing the measured resilience to evaluate the security level of commodity markets is beneficial and promising to regulators.
