Cointegrating polynomial regressions: Fully modified OLS estimation and inference
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper develops a fully modified OLS estimator for cointegrating polynomial regressions, i.e. for regressions including deterministic variables, integrated processes and powers of integrated processes as explanatory variables and stationary errors. The errors are allowed to be serially correlated and the regressors are allowed to be endogenous. The paper thus extends the fully modified approach developed in Phillips and Hansen (1990). The FM-OLS estimator has a zero mean Gaussian mixture limiting distribution, which is the basis for standard asymptotic inference. In addition Wald and LM tests for specification as well as a KPSS-type test for cointegration are derived. The theoretical analysis is complemented by a simulation study which shows that the developed FM-OLS estimator and tests based upon it perform well in the sense that the performance advantages over OLS are by and large similar to the performance advantages of FM-OLS over OLS in cointegrating regressions.

Integrated Modied OLS Estimation and Fixed-b Inference for Cointegrating Regressions
This paper is concerned with parameter estimation and inference in a cointegrating regression, where as usual endogenous regressors as well as serially correlated errors are considered. We propose a simple, new estimation method based on an augmented partial sum (integration) transformation of the regression model. The new estimator is labelled Integrated Modi ed Ordinary Least Squares (IM-OLS)...

In cointegrating regressions, available estimators and test statistics are nuisance parameter dependent. This paper addresses this problem as an identi cation failure. We focus on set estimation of long-run coe¢ cients (denoted ). We check whether and to what degree popular estimation methods, speci cally the Maximum Likelihood of Johansen (1995), Fully Modi ed OLS [Phillips and Hansen (1990); ...
متن کاملBootstrapping Cointegrating Regressions1
In this paper, we consider bootstrapping cointegrating regressions. It is shown that the method of bootstrap, if properly implemented, generally yields consistent estimators and test statistics for cointegrating regressions. We do not assume any speci ̄c data generating process, and employ the sieve bootstrap based on the approximated ̄nite-order vector autoregressions for the regression errors ...
متن کاملSemiparametrically Modified OLS and IV Estimators for Linear Cointegrating Models
This paper proposes a semiparametrically modified OLS (SM-OLS) estimator and a semiparametrically modified IV (SM-IV) estimator via kernel method for linear cointegrating models when cointegrating equilibrium errors respond instantaneously to changes of the first-differenced integrated regressor in the linear cointegrating models. Both the proposed estimators are shown to have a mixed normal li...
متن کاملStructural Nonparametric Cointegrating Regression
Nonparametric estimation of a structural cointegrating regression model is studied. As in the standard linear cointegrating regression model, the regressor and the dependent variable are jointly dependent and contemporaneously correlated. In nonparametric estimation problems, joint dependence is known to be a major complication that affects identification, induces bias in conventional kernel es...
