工具变量究竟识别哪一种脉冲响应？AI 解读

The local projection-instrumental variable (LP-IV) literature has been largely silent on cases in which impulse responses are set-identified, arising when the shock of interest is composite and instruments are correlated with multiple components. We demonstrate that LP-IV estimands constructed using one instrument at a time identify affine combinations of impulse responses to structural shock components with instrument-specific and potentially negative weights, challenging…

区分宏观数据因子模型中的结构突变AI 解读

We develop a projection-based decomposition to disentangle structural breaks in the factor variance and factor loadings. Our approach yields test statistics that can be compared against standard distributions commonly used in the structural break literature. Because standard methods for estimating factor models in macroeconomics normalize the factor variance, they do not distinguish between breaks of the factor variance and factor loadings. Applying our procedure to U.S.…
