Research on the Influence of Volatility of International Energy Commodity Futures Market on CPI in China by Keyao Lin, Chao Xun, Fei Wang, Angela Chi Chao, Zhenyu Du

“…The optimal lag orders of domestic high-frequency variables are all around 23, which can be regarded as one month in practice, indicating that their CPI influence takes one month to show. (2) Both the univariate MIDAS model and the multivariate MIDAS combined prediction model have good performance in prediction accuracy. (3) The predicted results of the multivariate MIDAS combined prediction model for CPI in China’s normal months are relatively excellent. …”
