Volatility Depends on Market Trades and Macro Theory
We consider the randomness of market trade as the origin of price and return stochasticity. We look at time series of trade values and volumes as random variables during the averaging interval {\Delta} and describe the dependences of market-based volatilities of price and return on the volatilities and correlations of market trade values and volumes. We describe the market-based origin of the lower boundaries of the accuracy of macroeconomic variables and consider, as an example, the accuracy of macroeconomic investments. We highlight that current macroeconomic models describe relations between the 1st order variables determined by sums of trade values or volumes. To predict market-based volatilities of price, return, and volatilities of macroeconomic variables, one should develop econometric methodologies, collect data, and elaborate macroeconomic theories of the 2nd order that model the mutual dependence of the 1st and 2nd order economic variables. The absence of macroeconomic theories of the 2nd order means no economic basis for predictions of market-based volatilities of price and return, as well as volatilities of any macroeconomic variables. In turn, that limits the accuracy of forecasting probabilities of price, return, and the accuracy of macroeconomic variables in the best case by Gaussian distributions.

Price, Volatility and the Second-Order Economic Theory
We introduce the price probability measure {\eta}(p;t) that defines the mean price p(1;t), mean square price p(2;t), price volatility {\sigma}p2(t)and all price n-th statistical moments p(n;t) as ratio of sums of n-th de…

This is an informal and sketchy review of six topical, somewhat unrelated subjects in quantitative finance: rough volatility models; random covariance matrix theory; copulas; crowded trades; high-frequency trading & mark…
Theoretical Economics and the Second-Order Economic Theory. What is it?
The economic and financial variables of economic agents determine macroeconomic variables. Current models consider agents' variables that are determined by the sums of values and volumes of agents' trades during some tim…

This paper describes the dependence of market-based statistical moments of returns on statistical moments and correlations of the current and past trade values. We use Markowitz's definition of value weighted return of a…
