The behavior of the dollar/euro exchange rate is modeled using a monetary model of the exchange rate. The econometric … analysis is complicated by the short sample span of actual euro data available for analysis. Hence, data on a "synthetic" euro …, is identified for the 1991M08-1999M12 period using the Johansen procedure. The model implies that the euro was …

We develop a new test of a parametric model of a conditional mean function against a nonparametric alternative. The test adapts to the unknown smoothness of the alternative model and is uniformly consistent against alternatives whose distance from the parametric model converges to zero at the...

This paper establishes the almost. sure consistency of least. squares regression series estimators, in the L2-norm and the sup-norm, under very large assumptions on the underlying model. Three examples are considered in order to illustrate the general results: trigonometric series, Legendre...

In the semiparametric additive hazard regression model of McKeague and Sasieni (1994), the hazard contributions of some covariates are allowed to change over time, without parametric restrictions (Aalen model), while the contributions of other covariates are assumed to be constant. In this...

In the setup of i.i.d. observations and a real valued differentiable functional T, locally asymptotic upper bounds are derived for the power of one-sided tests (simple, versus large values of T) and for the confidence probability of lower confidence limits (for the value of T), in the case that...

In 2001, the Fed has lowered interest rates in a series of cuts, starting from 6.5 % at the end of 2000 to 2.0 % by early November. This paper asks, whether the Federal Reserve Bank has been surprising the markets, taking as given the conventional view about the effect of monetary policy shocks....
