  1. This table reports out-of-sample results for one-step-ahead forecast based on models (7) and (8). The bold font highlights the significantly positive \(R_{\mathrm {OS}}^{2}\)s according to the Clark and West (2007) test, and the underline font highlights the biggest one. The statistics of Clark and West (2007) test are shown in parentheses, which corresponds to test \(H_0\): \(R_{OS}^2\le 0\) against \(H_A\): \(R_{OS}^2\)>0. *, ** and *** refer to statistical significance at 10%, 5% and 1% level, respectively
