Factor-augmented Error Correction Models

Banerjee, Anindya; Marcellino, Massimiliano - C.E.P.R. Discussion Papers - 2008

This paper brings together several important strands of the econometrics literature: error-correction, cointegration … the standard ECM, the FECM protects, at least in part, from omitted variable bias and the dependence of cointegration … cointegration prevent the errors from being non-invertible moving average processes. In addition, the FECM is a natural …

The Harrod-Balassa-Samuelson Hypothesis: Real Exchange Rates and their Long-Run Equilibrium

Chong, Yanping; Jordà, Òscar; Taylor, Alan M. - C.E.P.R. Discussion Papers - 2010

Frictionless, perfectly competitive traded-goods markets justify thinking of purchasing power parity (PPP) as the main driver of exchange rates in the long-run. But differences in the traded/non-traded sectors of economies tend to be persistent and affect movements in local price levels in ways...

Söderlind, Paul; Vredin, Anders - C.E.P.R. Discussion Papers - 1995

Applied cointegration analysis has much to gain from strong links with economic theory. For example, the current … important information about the economic structure can be found in the short-run dynamics, which most cointegration studies …

International Business Cycle Spillovers

Yilmaz, Kamil - C.E.P.R. Discussion Papers - 2010

This paper studies business cycle interdependence among the industrialized countries since 1958. Using the spillover index methodology recently proposed by Diebold and Yilmaz (2009) and based on the generalized VAR framework, I develop an alternative measure of comovement of macroeconomic...

Testing for Cointegration with Temporally Aggregated and Mixed-frequency Time Series

Ghysels, Eric; Miller, J. Isaac - C.E.P.R. Discussion Papers - 2013

We examine the effects of mixed sampling frequencies and temporal aggregation on standard tests for cointegration. We … the size distortion of the tests. We test stock prices and dividends for cointegration as an empirical demonstration. …

Pitfalls in Estimating Asymmetric Effects of Energy Price Shocks

Kilian, Lutz; Vigfusson, Robert J. - C.E.P.R. Discussion Papers - 2009

A common view in the literature is that the effect of energy price shocks on macroeconomic aggregates is asymmetric in energy price increases and decreases. We show that widely used asymmetric vector autoregressive models of the transmission of energy price shocks are misspecified, resulting in...

Aggregate Supply and Potential Output

Razin, Assaf - C.E.P.R. Discussion Papers - 2004

The New-Keynesian aggregate supply derives from micro-foundations an inflation-dynamics model very much like the tradition in the monetary literature. Inflation is primarily affected by: (i) economic slack; (ii) expectations; (iii) supply shocks; and (iv) inflation persistence. This Paper...

Pervasive Stickiness (Expanded Version)

Mankiw, N Gregory; Reis, Ricardo - C.E.P.R. Discussion Papers - 2006

This paper explores a macroeconomic model of the business cycle in which stickiness of information is pervasive. We start from a familiar benchmark classical model and add to it the assumption that there is sticky information on the part of consumers, workers, and firms. We evaluate the model...
