Abstract
Characterization of volatile commodity prices with a stochastic jump-diffusion process, where jumps are described by an exponent of Compound Poisson Process. We provide several useful properties for discretized process and analyze parameter fitting algorithm via the moments method. In addition we prove that the distribution cannot be uniquely determined via its moments, as is the case for the lognormal distribution.
