相关误差对增长脆弱性结论的挑战AI 解读

ABSTRACT We examine the impact of correlated errors on findings regarding fluctuations in US GDP growth, which are primarily driven by the lower quantiles of the distribution as predicted by financial conditions. A proposed zero‐correlation test reveals the presence of correlated residuals in the quantile regression, introducing endogeneity and raising concerns about the validity of the previous analysis. In response, we extend the model by including two additional lags of…

基于随机森林的面板数据政策评价方法AI 解读

ABSTRACT It is challenging to conduct controlled experiments to assess the impacts of social policy. To address this, past studies propose a panel data approach using factor models to estimate average treatment effects. The selection of control units is a critical step to balance the goodness of fit within‐sample with the posttreatment forecasting error when the number of observed potential control units is large. In this study, we propose using random forests, an ensemble…

预测分位数回归的统一推断AI 解读

The asymptotic behavior of quantile regression inference becomes dramatically different when it involves a persistent predictor with zero or nonzero intercept. Distinguishing various properties of a predictor is empirically challenging. In this article, we develop a unified predictability test for quantile regression regardless of the presence of intercept and persistence of a predictor. The developed test is a novel combination of data splitting, weighted inference, and a…

单指数 copula 模型的半参数估计与变量选择AI 解读

Summary A copula with a flexibly dependence structure can capture complexity and heterogeneity in economic and financial time series. Based on the recently proposed single‐index copula, we propose a simultaneous variable selection and estimation procedure. This method allows for choosing the most relevant state variables by using a penalized estimation with large sample properties derived. Simulation results demonstrate the good performance of the method in selecting…

基于 IVX-AR 模型检验美国住房价格指数收益的可预测性AI 解读

We use ten common macroeconomic variables to test for the predictability of the quarterly growth rate of house price index (HPI) in the United States during 1975:Q1–2018:Q2. We extend the instrumental variable based Wald statistic (IVX-KMS) proposed by Kostakis, Magdalinos, and Stamatogiannis to a new instrumental variable based Wald statistic (IVX-AR) which accounts for serial correlation and heteroscedasticity in the error terms of the linear predictive regression model.…

通过混合 Copula 平均估计金融数据依赖结构AI 解读

A mixture copula is a linear combination of several individual copulas that can be used to generate dependence structures not belonging to existing copula families. Because different pairs of markets may exhibit quite different dependence structures in empirical studies, mixture copulas are useful in modeling the dependence in financial data. Therefore, rather than selecting a single copula based on certain criteria, we propose using a model averaging approach to estimate…

固定效应非参数面板模型中的误差序列相关检验AI 解读

In this paper we consider the problem of testing serial correlation in fixed effects panel data model in a nonparametric framework. Using asymptotic results developed in Su and Lu (2013), we show that our test statistic has a standard normal distribution under the null hypothesis of zero serial correlation. The test statistic diverges to infinity at the rate of N under the alternative hypothesis that error is serially correlated, where N is the cross sectional sample size.…
