GRANGER CAUSALITY TESTS FOR PRECIOUS METALS RETURNS
GRANGER CAUSALITY TESTS FOR PRECIOUS METALS RETURNS

Summary/Abstract: The aim of the paper was examining Granger causality between rates of return of precious metals. The study covers the period from 2008 through 2013 and includes gold, silver, platinum, and palladium. After developing statistical analysis and confirming stationarity of time series under consideration, the Granger causality test was run. Its results revealed a bilateral causation between silver and platinum rates of return. The study also detected causal relationships flowing from gold and palladium rates of return to silver returns.
