摘要

This paper introduces a novel hidden Markov graphical model to explore temporal interconnections among diverse financial markets. Exploiting the properties of the generalized hyperbolic family of distributions with time-varying parameters governed by a latent Markov chain, we can establish conditional correlation structures among variables. Our approach employs a penalized EM algorithm with an \(L_1\) penalty of the off-diagonal elements of the precision matrix. We apply the model to daily returns of metal, energy commodities and green energy ETFs from 2017 to 2024, showcasing its practical utility in unveiling time-varying network dynamics.
