时间序列 GMM 的设计型推断AI 解读

This paper studies inference for time-series GMM when uncertainty comes from shock assignment within a realized historical episode. Rather than treating the data as one random draw from a population of hypothetical economies, the framework conditions on the historical environment and considers alternative realizations of shocks and instruments. For locally correctly specified GMM estimators, the centered moment has design long-run variance $Ω_R$, which determines the…

向结构 VAR 收缩的局部投影AI 解读

Local projection (LP) and structural vector autoregression (SVAR) are commonly employed to estimate dynamic causal effects of macroeconomic policies at multiple horizons. With enough lags as controls, LP estimators have little bias but their variance can increase with the horizon due to accumulating additional shocks. Because they typically employ fewer lags or suffer from local misspecification, SVAR estimators typically incur higher bias, but their variance decreases with…
