“…First, as far as we know, this study is the first to explore the dynamic volatility spillovers between crude oil price and various China's commodity sectors including precious metals, nonferrous metals, coal coke, and steel ore; nonmetal building materials; energy products; chemical products; grains; oils and fats; and soft commodities. Some empirical studies have investigated the volatility connectedness between crude oil price and commodities of a particular class or group, such as the agricultural commodities (Nazlioglu et al, 2013;Mensi et al, 2014;Wang et al, 2014;Luo and Ji, 2018), the energy commodities (Ng and Donker, 2013;Lovcha and Perez-Laborda, 2020), the precious metals commodities (Ewing and Malik, 2013;Bildirici and Turkmen, 2015), and the industries commodities (Choi and Hammoudeh, 2010). However, the results of the current literature examining the relationship between energy prices and other commodity prices are mixed and generally ambiguous, which may be due to the use of different models based on various assumptions and analysis of different timescales (Tiwari et al, 2020).…”
