社会互动阈值回归AI 解读

This paper develops a threshold social interaction model which introduces group-specific endogenous effects as well as contextual effects into a conventional spatial Durbin model. We propose a two-step GMM estimator for the threshold and regression parameters, derive asymptotic theory, and provide bootstrap inference. Finally, we assess the performance of our methods using a Monte Carlo simulation and provide an empirical application on the role of peer effects on student…

半参数门限回归中的内生性AI 解读

This paper estimates threshold regression models with an endogenous threshold variable using a nonparametric control function approach. Assuming diminishing threshold effects, we derive the consistency and limiting distribution of our proposed estimator constructed from the series approximation method for weakly dependent data. In addition, we propose a test for the endogeneity of the threshold variable, which is valid regardless of whether the threshold effects exist. We…

价格收敛的障碍AI 解读

Summary This paper uncovers novel empirical patterns in the cross‐country price mechanism using a nonlinear factor model and threshold regression analysis based on individual goods retail price data for a large panel of countries. To our knowledge, this is the first paper to find strong evidence for club convergence of retail prices. These clubs emerge due to the interaction of traded and nontraded factors. For example, countries physically closer to potential trade partners…

结构门槛回归AI 解读

This paper introduces the structural threshold regression (STR) model that allows for an endogenous threshold variable as well as for endogenous regressors. This model provides a parsimonious way of modeling nonlinearities and has many potential applications in economics and finance. Our framework can be viewed as a generalization of the simple threshold regression framework of Hansen (2000, Econometrica 68, 575–603) and Caner and Hansen (2004, Econometric Theory 20,…

宏观预测者是否应使用日度金融数据，以及如何使用？AI 解读

We introduce easy-to-implement, regression-based methods for predicting quarterly real economic activity that use daily financial data and rely on forecast combinations of mixed data sampling (MIDAS) regressions. We also extract a novel small set of daily financial factors from a large panel of about 1000 daily financial assets. Our analysis is designed to elucidate the value of daily financial information and provide real-time forecast updates of the current (nowcasting)…

混合采样频率回归模型AI 解读

We study regression models that involve data sampled at different frequencies. We derive the asymptotic properties of the NLS estimators of such regression models and compare them with the LS estimators of a traditional model that involves aggregating or equally weighting data to estimate a model at the same sampling frequency. In addition we propose new tests to examine the null hypothesis of equal weights in aggregating time series in a regression model. We explore the…
