Heteroskedasticity-Autocorrelation Robust Covariance Estimation Under Non-stationary Covariance Processes
The need to estimate variance-covariance matrix in a time series regression arises often in economic applications involving macroeconomic or finance data. In this paper, we study the behavior of two most popular covariance matrix estimators, namely the Kiefer, Vogelsang and Bunzel kernel estimator without truncation (Kiefer, Vogelsang and Bunzel 2000, KVB thereafter) and standard consistent ker...
متن کاملBootstrap Methods for Covariance Structures
The optimal minimum distance (OMD) estimator for models of covariance structures is asymptotically efficient but has much worse finite-sample properties than does the equally-weighted minimum distance (EWMD) estimator. This paper shows how the bootstrap can be used to improve the finite-sample performance of the OMD estimator. The theory underlying the bootstrap's ability to reduce the bias of ...
متن کاملOn the Causality between Multiple Locally Stationary Processes
When one would like to describe the relations between multivariate time series, the concepts of dependence and causality are of importance. These concepts also appear to be useful when one is describing the properties of an engineering or econometric model. Although the measures of dependence and causality under stationary assumption are well established, empirical studies show that these measu...
متن کاملSaving, Investment, and Growth: A Causality Test
In the second half of the last century, tremendous efforts were devoted to identifying sources of economic success by a few countries and causes of failure by most. In this process a voluminous literature ranging from the neo-classical to Marxist, neo-Marxist, and dependency theories has been developed to answer the question of disparity among different countries of the north vis-à-vis those of...
متن کاملTest for Exponentiality Based on the Sample Covariance
This paper proposes a simple goodness-of-fit test based on the sample covariance. It is shown that this test is preferable for alternatives of increasing and unimodal failure rate. Critical values for various sample sizes are determined by means of Monte Carlo simulations. We compare the test based on the sample covariance with tests based on Hoeffding's maximum correlation. The usefulness o...
