Which Extreme Values are Really Extremes?
Olmo, Jose; Gonzalo, Jesus - Econometric Society - 2004
The aim of this paper is to give a formal definition and consistent estimates of the extremes of a population. This definition relies on a threshold value that delimits the extremes and on the uniform convergence of the distribution of these extremes to a Pareto type distribution. The tail...

High-Frequency Principal Components and Evolution of Liquidity in a Limit Order Market
Tyurin, Konstantin - Econometric Society - 2004
The paper applies a popular methodology of competing risks to the analysis of the timing and interaction between the Deutsche Mark/U.S. dollar transactions, quotes, and cancellations in the Reuters D2000-2 electronic brokerage system. Consistently with previous stock market studies, the bid-ask...

Do Firms Rebalance Their Capital Structures?
Roberts, Michael R.; Leary, Mark T. - Econometric Society - 2004
We empirically examine the trade-off theory of capital structure, allowing for costly adjustment. After confirming that financing behavior is consistent with the presence of adjustment costs, we use a dynamic duration model to show that firms behave as though adhering to a dynamic trade-off...

Duration and Order Type Clusters
NG, Wing Lon - Econometric Society - 2004
This paper introduces a new bivariate autoregressive conditional framework (ACD×ACL) for modelling the arrival process of buy and sell orders in a limit order book. The model contains two dynamic components to describe the observed clustering of durations and order types: a duration process to...

Estimation of Nonlinear Models with Measurement Error Using Marginal Information
Ridder, Geert; Hu, Yingyao - Econometric Society - 2004
We consider the problem of consistent estimation of nonlinear models with mismeasured explanatory variables, when marginal information on the true values of these variables is available. The marginal distribution of the true variables is used to identify the distribution of the measurement...

Has long become longer or short become shorter? Evidence from a censored quantile regression analysis of the changes in the distribution of U.S. unemployment duration
Guimarães, Juliana - Econometric Society - 2004
There is conflicting evidence regarding the recent evolution of unemployment duration in the U.S. In this study we rely on censored quantile regression methods to analyze the changes in the US unemployment duration distribution. We employed the decomposition method proposed by Machado and Mata...
