  1. This table presents the p-values of the Granger causality in distribution of volatility. Data cover different periods, all ending on 17/05/2021 (see Table 1).Ā The tests in the left tail are conducted considering \(\alpha\) = 1%, 5% and 10%, while the tests in the right tail consider \(\alpha\) = 90%, 95% and 99%. The tests are conducted pairwise between the US and other 6 countries (Canada (CN), France (FR), Germany (GE), Japan (JP), China (CH), and the UK) for 11 industries (Basic Materials (BM), Consumer Discretionary (CD), Consumer Staples (CS), Energy (EN), Financials (FI), Health Care (HC), Industrials (IN), Real Estate (RE), Technology (TEC), Telecommunications (TEL), and Utilities (UT)). \(US\to k\) indicates Granger causality from the US to the returns of country \(k\), and \(k\to US\) indicates Granger causality from country \(k\) to the US, for each industry. Numbers in bold indicate the rejection of the null of no Granger causality at the 5% level. One asterisk, ā€œ*ā€, denotes significance at the 1% level. ā€œ-ā€ indicates that it was not possible to obtain reliable estimates of the Conditional Autoregressive Value-at-Risk (CAViaR) due to small sample size
