Random Walks, Breaking Trend Functions, and the Chaotic Structure of the Velocity of Money
随机游走、趋势函数断点与货币流通速度的混沌结构
This paper examines the times-series properties of U.S. velocity series, using E. Zivot and D. W. K. Andrews's (1992) variation of P. Perron's (1989) test. It also tests for deterministic noisy chaos using the Nychka, Ellner, Gallant, and McCaffrey (1992) nonparametric test for positivity of the maximum Lyapunov exponent. Comparisons are made among simple sum and Divisia aggregates using the Thornton and Yue (1992) series of Divisia monetary aggregates for an extended sample…
