Abstract
The rise and fall of crude oil prices, gold prices, and US dollar exchange rates is of great significance to investors. It is necessary to explore the evolution characteristics of the causal relationship between crude oil, gold, and US dollar, so as to provide reference for investors. We selected the ICE Brent crude oil continuous futures, the ICE WTI crude oil continuous futures, the NYMEX light crude oil continuous futures, the COMEX gold continuous futures, and the US dollar index as the research objects. Based on the theory of pattern causality, the causal relationship between crude oil, gold, and US dollar is divided into positive causal relationship (T), negative causal relationship (F), and disordered causal relationship (D). The causal modal evolution network of crude oil and gold prices against the US dollar index (BWCGG-U) and the causal relationship modal evolution network of the US dollar index on the price of crude oil and gold (U-BWCGG) were constructed. Complex network and sliding window are used to study the evolution characteristics of short-term causality between crude oil and gold and US dollar in 60 days. The results show that (1) the modes of causality between crude oil, gold, and the US dollar index are constantly changing, with a few key modes. The key modes are often transmitted to themselves. (2) The most critical modes of two networks are all FFFF, and the negative causality between gold and the US dollar index is more stable. Investors based on the gold (dollar index) price to judge the dollar index (gold futures) investment program are more reliable. (3) When crude oil and gold show causal modes of FFFF and DDDF, respectively, the emergence and transformation of the modes can be maintained for a period of time to provide a certain guarantee for investors’ investment. However, its internal conversion rate is high, which needs to be judged in combination with the actual situation to improve the forecasting ability.
