一致区分 I(0) 与 I(1) 过程的不可能性AI 解读

An I(0) process is commonly defined as a process that satisfies a functional central limit theorem, i.e., whose scaled partial sums converge weakly to a Wiener process, and an I(1) process as a process whose first differences are I(0). This paper establishes that with this definition, it is impossible to consistently discriminate between I(0) and I(1) processes. At the same time, on a more constructive note, there exist consistent unit root tests and also nontrivial…

有无单位根的 AR(1) 时间序列中的高斯推断AI 解读

This paper introduces a simple first-difference-based approach to estimation and inference for the AR(1) model. The estimates have virtually no finite-sample bias and are not sensitive to initial conditions, and the approach has the unusual advantage that a Gaussian central limit theory applies and is continuous as the autoregressive coefficient passes through unity with a uniform $\sqrt{n}$ rate of convergence. En route, a useful central limit theorem (CLT) for sample…

含低频随机水平跳变与异常值的协整过程渐近理论AI 解读

This is an analytical study of the effect of level-shift and temporary-change components, when present but neglected, on the trace test for cointegration. The contribution is threefold. First, we discuss in a multivariate framework, and jointly, effects that in the previous literature have been discussed in a univariate setting and in isolation. Second, we consider a rather general specification of shifts and outliers with random size, number, and timing and with flexible…

费雪效应的面板协整检验AI 解读

Abstract Most empirical evidence suggests that the Fisher effect, stating that inflation and nominal interest rates should cointegrate with a unit slope on inflation, does not hold, a finding at odds with many theoretical models. This paper argues that these results can be attributed in part to the low power of univariate tests, and that the use of panel data can generate more powerful tests. For this purpose, we propose two new panel cointegration tests that can be applied…

New multivariate panel cointegration methods are used to analyze nominal exchange rates and prices in four major economies in Europe: France, Germany, Italy and the United Kingdom for the post‐Bretton Woods period. We test for purchasing power parity (PPP) between these four countries and find that the theoretical PPP relationship does not hold. However, the estimated unrestricted relationship is found to be remarkably close to the theoretical one (1, −1.5, 0.9 instead of 1,…

含固定效应面板中混合 t 比率单位根检验的渐近局部功效AI 解读

. This latter test is equivalent to the well-known pooled t test proposed by Levin et al. (2002, Journal of Econometrics 108, 1--24), and its power depends only on the mean of the local-to-unity parameters. This implies that it has the same power against homogeneous and heterogeneous alternatives with the same mean autoregressive parameter. We then compare these tests to a panel version of the Sargan-Bhargava (1983, Econometrica 51, 153--74) statistic for a unit root and the…

线性协整下区制切换误差修正模型的稳定性AI 解读

The paper obtains conditions that ensure stationarity of linear long-run equilibrium relations and differenced observations in vector autoregressive error correction models with nonlinear short-run dynamics. The considered models include various threshold error correction models and their smooth transition counterparts. These models assume that the form of the short-run dynamics depends on values of observable transition functions that determine the regime in which the…

分数布朗运动的不同频域与时域版本AI 解读

This paper compares models of fractional processes and associated weak convergence results based on moving average representations in the time domain with spectral representations. Both approaches have been applied in the literature on fractional processes. We point out that the conventional forms of these models are not equivalent, as is commonly assumed, even under a Gaussianity assumption. We show that it is necessary to distinguish between “two-sided” processes depending…

分数协整的无分布检验AI 解读

We propose tests of the null of spurious relationship against the alternative of fractional cointegration among the components of a vector of fractionally integrated time series. Our test statistics have an asymptotic chi-square distribution under the null and rely on generalized least squares–type of corrections that control for the short-run correlation of the weak dependent components of the fractionally integrated processes. We emphasize corrections based on…

周期单整过程的协整AI 解读

Integration for seasonal time series can take the form of seasonal periodic or nonperiodic integration. When seasonal time series are periodically integrated, we show that any cointegration is either full periodic cointegration or full nonperiodic cointegration, with no possibility of cointegration applying for only some seasons. In contrast, seasonally integrated series can be seasonally, periodically or nonperiodically cointegrated, with the possibility of cointegration…

具有因子结构的面板单位根检验AI 解读

This paper considers various tests of the unit root hypothesis in panels where the cross-section dependence is due to common dynamic factors. Three situations are studied. First, the common factors and idiosyncratic components may both be nonstationary. In this case test statistics based on generalized least squares (GLS) possess a standard normal limiting distribution, whereas test statistics based on ordinary least squares (OLS) are invalid. Second, if the common component…

趋势检验AI 解读

The paper examines various tests for assessing whether a time series model requires a slope component. We first consider the simple t-test on the mean of first differences and show that it achieves high power against the alternative hypothesis of a stochastic nonstationary slope and also against a purely deterministic slope. The test may be modified, parametrically or nonparametrically, to deal with serial correlation. Using both local limiting power arguments and…

类单位根情形中的可容许与不可容许检验AI 解读

This paper investigates the asymptotic behavior of tests in situations where the likelihood is locally asymptotically quadratic. Necessary and sufficient conditions are given for a test to be admissible. Even without these restrictive parametric assumptions, it is shown that certain common procedures—such as the augmented Dickey–Fuller test in cases where no deterministic trend is present or standard tests for restrictions on cointegrating relationships—are asymptotically…

非平稳波动率时间序列的自助法单位根检验AI 解读

The presence of permanent volatility shifts in key macroeconomic and financial variables in developed economies appears to be relatively common. Conventional unit root tests are unreliable in the presence of such behavior, having nonpivotal asymptotic null distributions. In this paper we propose a bootstrap approach to unit root testing that is valid in the presence of a wide class of permanent variance changes that includes single and multiple (abrupt and smooth transition)…

混合面板非平稳性的简单检验AI 解读

This article proposes a simple estimator that is consistent for the fraction of a panel that has an autoregressive unit root. Given such an estimate, , we can test the null hypothesis that θ = θ0 for any value of θ0 ϵ (0, 1]. The test is asymptotically standard normal and is valid whether or not the panel is cross-sectionally correlated. The main insight is that in a panel in which some units are stationary and some have unit roots, the cross-sectional variance of the mixed…

识别多重结构变化的潜在陷阱及其在购买力平价中的应用AI 解读

We investigate the empirical performance of the Bai and Perron multiple structural change tests and show that the use of their critical values may cause severe size distortions in persistent series. To correct these size distortions while maintaining a good power, we implement the Bai structural change test and extend it in two directions, developing a new procedure to choose the number of breaks and a restricted version that specifically models breaks that imply mean or…

关于《含单位根的门限自回归》的评论AI 解读

In this paper we revisit the results in Caner and Hansen (2001), where the authors obtained novel limiting distributions of Wald type test statistics for testing for the presence of threshold nonlinearities in autoregressive models containing unit roots. Using the same framework, we obtain a new formulation of the limiting distribution of the Wald statistic for testing for threshold effects, correcting an expression that appeared in the main theorem presented by Caner and…

单位根假设检验的半参数功效包络AI 解读

This paper derives asymptotic power envelopes for tests of the unit root hypothesis in a zero-mean AR(1) model. The power envelopes are derived using the limits of experiments approach and are semiparametric in the sense that the underlying error distribution is treated as an unknown infinite-dimensional nuisance parameter. Adaptation is shown to be possible when the error distribution is known to be symmetric and to be impossible when the error distribution is unrestricted.…
