It is generally believed that for the power of unit root tests, only the time span and not the observation frequency … methods will yield power gains in the presence of fat tails and persistent volatility clustering, and the strength of these … features (and hence the power gains) increases with the observation frequency. This is illustrated using both Monte Carlo …

Carlo simulations demonstrate that the proposed test has satisfactory size and power properties in finite samples. Applying …

for Value-at-Risk. Applications to simple AR and ARCH time series models show that its power in detecting certain … misspecifications is larger than the power of well-known tests for correct Unconditional Coverage and Conditional Coverage. …
