Abstract
The fundamental endeavor of this study is to investigate the asymmetric relationship between bunker price and Baltic Dry-bulk Index (hereafter BDI). Previous investigations employ linear form based analysis between oil price and BDI but we develop nonlinear and asymmetric cointegration method, which is properly able to capture the decreasing and increasing periods differently. The empirical results show there is no relationships in linear model (e.g. Engle and Granger's methods). On the contrary, our estimate reveals there is significant long-run relationship with asymmetric framework, which implies the necessity of nonlinear and asymmetric consideration to the bunker price analysis.
