Impact of commodities and global stock prices on the idiosyncratic risk of Bitcoin during the COVID-19 pandemic

In times of exogenous systemic shocks, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, it is important to identify hedge or safe haven assets. Therefore, this paper analyzes changes in the idiosyncratic risk of Bitcoin in a portfolio of commodities and global stocks. For this purpose, the M-GARCH model employed cons...
