摘要
This paper provides an analysis of the effect of the COVID-19 outbreak on the crude oil price. Using a newly developed air mobility index and Apple's driving trends index, we assess the effect of human mobility restrictions and social distancing during the COVID-19 pandemic on the crude oil price. We apply a quantile regression model, which evaluates different quantiles of the crude oil price. We also conduct an extreme value modeling, which examines the lower tail of the crude oil price distribution. We find that both the air mobility index and driving trends index significantly influence lower and upper quantiles of the WTI crude oil price. The extreme value models suggest that there is a potential risk of a negative crude oil price for a sudden extreme fall of air mobility.
