Co-movement and Granger causality between Bitcoin and M2, inflation and economic policy uncertainty: evidence from the U.K. and Japan.

This study aims to investigate the co-movement and Granger causality between Bitcoin prices (BTC) and M2 (cash, demand, and time deposits), inflation, and economic policy uncertainty (EPU) in the U.K. and Japan.

Asymmetric effects of climate policy uncertainty, geopolitical risk, and crude oil prices on clean energy prices.

We investigate the asymmetric effects of climate policy uncertainty (CPU), geopolitical risk (GPR), and crude oil prices (WTI) on the realized volatility of the returns of clean energy prices (CEP) in the USA. Using the non-linear autoregressive distributed lags (NARDL) model on data from January 2001 to December 2021, we provide evidence that the effects of CPU, GPR, and WTI on CEP's returns and realized volatility differ in the short and long run and are asymmetric. An increase and decrease in CPU affect CEP's realized volatility more than returns in the long run.
