  2. Introduction Introduction • Oil market has become a ‘global pool’ • Literature that examines the co-movements among various types of crude oil. o Gulen(1999), Ewing and Harter (2000) Bentzen (2007) o Kao and Wan (2012) “Benchmark status” and “decoupling” of WTI o Kaufmann and Ullman (2009) “Most analyst agree the world oil market is unified”

  3. Monthly Crude Prices Monthly Crude Prices

  4. Methodology Methodology Cointegration tests with structural break: • Based on the Gregory and Hansen (1996) residual based cointegration test which accounts for possible regime change • Maslyuk and Smyth (2009) examine cointegration among crude oil spot and futures prices in the presence of a structural break

  5. Methodology Methodology • Engle and Granger (1987) = μ + α + y y e 1 2 t t t Endogenous structural breaks: = μ + μ φ + α + • Model C : y y e τ 1 1 2 2 t t t t = μ + μ φ + β + α + • Model C/T: y t y e τ 1 1 2 2 t t t t = μ + μ φ + α + α φ + • Model C/S: y y y e τ τ 1 1 2 1 2 2 2 t t t t t t

  6. Data Data • Monthly spot crude oil prices o January 1986 through June 2012 o WTI, Edmonton, WCS • 318 observations • Daily spot crude oil prices o January 2000 through June 2012; o WTI, Edmonton, WCS • 3135 observations

  7. Unit root test (Daily) Unit root test (Daily) Results of traditional unit root tests (ADF, PP, KPSS) o Find WTI (levels) nonstationary o Δ WTO stationary • Canadian oil prices o Edmonton Par nonstationary o Δ EDM stationary o WCS nonstationary o Δ WCS stationary

  8. Unit Root Test (Monthly) Unit Root Test (Monthly) Results of traditional unit root tests (ADF, PP, KPSS) o Find WTI and Brent nonstationary o Δ WTO stationary • Canadian oil prices o Edmonton Par nonstationary (no trend) o Δ Edm stationary o WCS nonstationary (no trend) o Δ WCS stationary

  15. Results Results • Crude spot prices of the same grade are cointegrated • Crude spot prices of different grades are cointegrated • Does not appear to be a prevailing time for a common structural break in oil markets
