Abstract

This paper studies the dynamics of the Russian stock market in 2000–2007 from the stochastic and chaotic viewpoints. Estimation of Lyapunov exponents for a number of Russian stock prices and indices suggests the absense of low-dimensional chaos. A more precise description of the market dynamics is offered by the stochastic approach, within which the best model was found to be GARCH(1,1) ~ t . Christoffersen and Berkowitz tests show that this model is better at estimating value-at-risk of trading positions than a benchmark model with independent Gaussian returns, and that systematic errors in risk assessment are quite small.
