A Comparison of Generalized Hyperbolic Distribution Models for Equity Returns by Virginie Konlack Socgnia, Diane Wilcox

“…To better understand the dependence structure of the stocks, we fit the MGHD and subclasses to both the stock returns and the two leading principal components derived from the price data. While the MGHD could fit both data subsets, we observed that the multivariate normality of the stock return residuals, computed by removing shared components, suggests that the departure from normality can be explained by the structure in the common factors.…”
