A Factor Analytical Approach to Price Discovery

Westerlund, Joakim LU ; Reese, Simon LU and Narayan, Paresh (2017) In Oxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics 79(3). p.366-394
Abstract

Existing econometric approaches for studying price discovery presume that the number of markets are small, and their properties become suspect when this restriction is not met. They also require making identifying restrictions and are in many cases not suitable for statistical inference. The current paper takes these shortcomings as a starting point to develop a factor analytical approach that makes use of the cross-sectional variation of the data, yet is very user-friendly in that it does not involve any identifying restrictions or obstacles to inference.
