Testing for stock market contagion : a quantile regression approach

Park, Sungyong; Wang, Wendun; Huang, Naijing - 2015 - This version: March 25, 2015

Regarding the asymmetric and leptokurtic behavior of financial data, we propose a new contagion test in the quantile regression framework that is robust to model misspecification. Unlike conventional correlation-based tests, the proposed quantile contagion test allows us to investigate the stock...

Heterogeneity in manufacturing growth risk

Opschoor, Daan; Dijk, Dick van; Franses, Philip Hans - 2021

We analyze output growth risk with respect to financial conditions across U.S. manufacturing industries. Using a multi-level quantile regression approach, we find strong heterogeneity in growth risk, particularly between the more vulnerable durable goods sector and the more resilient nondurable...

Theoretical and empirical differences between diagonal and full Bekk for risk management

Allen, David E.; McAleer, Michael - 2017

The purpose of the paper is to explore the relative biases in the estimation of the Full BEKK model as compared with the Diagonal BEKK model, which is used as a theoretical and empirical benchmark. Chang and McAleer [4] show that univariate GARCH is not a special case of multivariate ARCH,...

O'Donnell, Owen; López Nicolás, Ángel; Van … - 2006

Over a five-year period in the 1990s Vietnam experienced annual economic growth of more than 8% and a decrease of 15 points in the proportion of children chronically malnourished (stunted). We estimate the extent to which changes in the distribution of child nutritional status can be explained...
