Mean Reversion in G - 10 Nominal Exchange Rates *
Received wisdom: industrial-country floating exchange rates contain unit roots. In three types of tests, however, the data support nominal-rate mean reversion. First, SUR tests on panels of Group-of-Ten nominal rates frequently reject the null of unit roots in favor of mean reversion for various samples over the current float, the first such results in the literature. Second, in out-of-sample f...
متن کاملMean Reversion in the Us Treasury Constant Maturity Rates
The daily structure of the US Treasury Constant Maturity Rates is investigated in this paper by means of fractional integration techniques. Using a version of the tests of Robinson (1994) along with a model selection criterion based on diagnostic tests on the residuals, we show that the behaviour of this series can be captured by I(d) statistical models with the fractional parameter d close to,...
متن کاملMean Field Strategies Induce Unrealistic Non-Linearities in Calcium Puffs
Mean field models are often useful approximations to biological systems, but sometimes, they can yield misleading results. In this work, we compare mean field approaches with stochastic models of intracellular calcium release. In particular, we concentrate on calcium signals generated by the concerted opening of several clustered channels (calcium puffs). To this end we simulate calcium puffs n...
متن کاملThe effect of twin birth on neonatal and infant mortality rates: A systematic review
Background: Twin birth may account for a higher incidence rates of infants and neonates. To investigate the potential relationship between twin birth and infant and neonatal mortality rates, a systematic review was conducted.Methodology: To gather the evidence for the relationship between twin birth and its potential effect on mortality during infancy and neonatal periods, a systematic re...
متن کاملAsset price bubbles from heterogeneous beliefs about mean reversion rates
Harrison and Kreps showed in 1978 how the heterogeneity of investor beliefs can drive speculation, leading the price of an asset to exceed its intrinsic value. By focusing on an extremely simple market model – a finite-state Markov chain – the analysis of Harrison and Kreps achieved great clarity but limited realism. Here we achieve similar clarity with greater realism, by considering an asset ...
