DEPARTMENT OF ECONOMETRICS AND BUSINESS STATISTICS Persistence and Nonstationary Models
نویسنده
چکیده
The aim of this paper is to examine the measurement of persistence in a range of time series models nested in the framework of Cramer (1961). This framework is a generalization of the Wold (1938) decomposition for stationary time series which, in addition to accommodating the standard I(0) and I(1) models, caters for alternative nonstationary processes. Three measures of persistence are considered, namely the long-run impulse response, variance ratio and autocorrelation functions. Particular emphasis is given to the behaviour of these measures in a range of nonstationary models. We document conflict that arises between different measures, applied to the same model, as well as conflict arising from the use of a given measure in different models. Precisely which persistence measures are time dependent and which are not, is highlighted. The nature of the general representation used also helps clarify what shock the impulse response function refers to in the case of models where more than one random disturbance impinges on the time series.

In this paper we propose a Bayesian method for estimating hyperbolic diffusion models. The approach is based on the Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method after discretization via the Milstein scheme. Our simulation study shows that the hyperbolic diffusion exhibits many of the stylized facts about asset returns documented in the financial econometrics literature, such as a slowly declining aut...
