US Real GDP Growth and Impact of Covid-19

Is there a permanent component in US real GDP *

Using three recent panel unit root methodologies, we strongly reject the unit root hypothesis for real per capita income for the 48 contiguous states from 1929 to 1995. The rate of convergence is sensitive to assumptions of the heterogeneity of the intercept, first order autoregressive coefficients, lag length and accommodating for a trend break after the 1973 oil shock.  2000 Elsevier Science...

Predicting Recessions: Forecasting US GDP Growth through Supervised Learning

Machine learning algorithms have gained much popularity in finance, where the abundance of training examples and high-frequency sampling rates produce datasets that are amenable to successful regression. In macroeconomics, however, where data is scarce and sampling rates are far lower, learning algorithms have not been extensively explored, and even within the sparse literature success has been...

Modeling and Forecasting Effects of Crude Oil Price Changes on the US and UK GDP

        This paper proposes a new forecasting model for investigating relationship between the price of crude oil, as an important energy source and GDP of the US, as the largest oil consumer, and the UK, as the oil producer. GMDH neural network and MLFF neural network approaches, which are both non-linear models, are employed to forecast GDP responses to the oil price changes. The resul...
