Recommendation
Volatility in both global and US markets fell into a historically low range in the second half of 2017. While this turn of events represented welcome news for risk-averse investors, the unexpected decrease in volatility baffled many economists. Federal Reserve Board researchers Juan M. Londono and Beth Anne Wilson examine international volatility and evaluate eight variables as the main components that move its needle. getAbstract suggests this technical and astute analysis to investors, economists and market specialists interested in the vicissitudes of volatility.
