Description of variables

NotationName of variableDescription of measurementData source
x1–x6Lagged Returns (t–6 to t–1)rti=ln(PtiPti1),i=1,,6Own calculation based on S&P Global indices
where “Pti” is the closing price at day t−i
x7Current Day Return (t)rt=ln(PtPt1)Own calculation based on S&P Global indices
Where “Pt” is the closing price ad day t
x8 (MA5)5-day Moving Average of ReturnsArithmetic mean of last 5 daily returns, up to and including day tOwn calculation based on S&P Global indices
x9 (Vol)5-day Return VolatilityStandard deviation of last 5 daily returns, up to and including day tOwn calculation based on S&P Global indices
OutputNext Day Return (t+1)rt+1=ln(Pt+1Pt)Own calculation based on S&P Global indices
Where “Pt+1” is the closing price at day t+1

Note(s): Price data for all indices were obtained from S&P Global. Log return is the natural logarithm of the ratio of consecutive daily prices
