This article investigates the correlation structure of the global crude oil market using the daily returns of 71 oil price time series across the world from 1992 to 2012. We identify from the correlation matrix six clusters of time series exhibiting evident geographical traits, which supports Weiners (1991) regionalization hypothesis of the global oil market. We find that intra-cluster pairs of time series are highly correlated while inter-cluster pairs have relatively low correlations. Principal component analysis shows that most eigenvalues of the correlation matrix locate outside the prediction of the random matrix theory and these deviating eigenvalues and their corresponding eigenvectors contain rich economic information. Specifically, the largest eigenvalue reflects a collective effect of the global market, other four largest eigenvalues possess a partitioning function to distinguish the six clusters, and the smallest eigenvalues highlight the pairs of time series with the largest correlation coefficients. We construct an index of the global oil market based on the eigenfortfolio of the largest eigenvalue, which evolves similarly as the average price time series and has better performance than the benchmark $1/N$ portfolio under the buy-and-hold strategy.

This paper analyzes the informational efficiency of oil market during the last three decades, and examines changes in informational efficiency with major geopolitical events, such as terrorist attacks, financial crisis and other important events. The
series under study is the daily prices of West Texas Intermediate (WTI) in USD/BBL, commonly used as a benchmark in oil pricing. The analysis is performed using information-theory-derived quantifiers, namely permutation entropy and permutation statistical complexity. These metrics allow capturing the hidden structure in the market dynamics, and allow discriminating different degrees of informational efficiency. We find that some geopolitical events impact on the underlying dynamical structure of the market.
We propose the Hawkes flocking model that assesses systemic risk in high-frequency processes at the two perspectives -- endogeneity and interactivity. We examine the futures markets of WTI crude oil and gasoline for the past decade, and perform a com
parative analysis with conditional value-at-risk as a benchmark measure. In terms of high-frequency structure, we derive the empirical findings. The endogenous systemic risk in WTI was significantly higher than that in gasoline, and the level at which gasoline affects WTI was constantly higher than in the opposite case. Moreover, although the relative influences degree was asymmetric, its difference has gradually reduced.
As a vital strategic resource, oil has an essential influence on the world economy, diplomacy and military development. Using oil trade data to dynamically monitor and warn about international trade risks is an urgent need. Based on the UN Comtrade d
ata from 1988 to 2017, we construct unweighted and weighted global oil trade networks (OTNs). Complex network theories have some advantages in analyzing global oil trade as a system with numerous economies and complicated relationships. This paper establishes a trading-based network model for global oil trade to study the evolving efficiency, criticality and robustness of economies and the relationships between oil trade partners. The results show that for unweighted OTNs, the efficiency of oil flows gradually increases with growing complexity of the OTNs, and the weighted efficiency indicators are more capable of highlighting the impact of major events on the OTNs. The identified critical economies and trade relationships have more important strategic significance in the real market. The simulated deliberate attacks corresponding to national bankruptcy, trade blockade, and economic sanctions have a more significant impact on the robustness than random attacks. When the economies are promoting high-quality economic development, and continuously enhancing positions in the OTN, more attention needs be paid to the identified critical economies and trade relationships. To conclude, some suggestions for application are given according to the results.
We investigate the probability distribution of the volatility return intervals $tau$ for the Chinese stock market. We rescale both the probability distribution $P_{q}(tau)$ and the volatility return intervals $tau$ as $P_{q}(tau)=1/bar{tau} f(tau/bar
{tau})$ to obtain a uniform scaling curve for different threshold value $q$. The scaling curve can be well fitted by the stretched exponential function $f(x) sim e^{-alpha x^{gamma}}$, which suggests memory exists in $tau$. To demonstrate the memory effect, we investigate the conditional probability distribution $P_{q} (tau|tau_{0})$, the mean conditional interval $<tau|tau_{0}>$ and the cumulative probability distribution of the cluster size of $tau$. The results show clear clustering effect. We further investigate the persistence probability distribution $P_{pm}(t)$ and find that $P_{-}(t)$ decays by a power law with the exponent far different from the value 0.5 for the random walk, which further confirms long memory exists in $tau$. The scaling and long memory effect of $tau$ for the Chinese stock market are similar to those obtained from the United States and the Japanese financial markets.
The efficient market hypothesis has far-reaching implications for financial trading and market stability. Whether or not cryptocurrencies are informationally efficient has therefore been the subject of intense recent investigation. Here, we use permu
tation entropy and statistical complexity over sliding time-windows of price log returns to quantify the dynamic efficiency of more than four hundred cryptocurrencies. We consider that a cryptocurrency is efficient within a time-window when these two complexity measures are statistically indistinguishable from their values obtained on randomly shuffled data. We find that 37% of the cryptocurrencies in our study stay efficient over 80% of the time, whereas 20% are informationally efficient in less than 20% of the time. Our results also show that the efficiency is not correlated with the market capitalization of the cryptocurrencies. A dynamic analysis of informational efficiency over time reveals clustering patterns in which different cryptocurrencies with similar temporal patterns form four clusters, and moreover, younger currencies in each group appear poised to follow the trend of their elders. The cryptocurrency market thus already shows notable adherence to the efficient market hypothesis, although data also reveals that the coming-of-age of digital currencies is in this regard still very much underway.
