Testing CAPM with a large number of assets
Pesaran, M. Hashem; Yamagata, Takashi - 2012
This paper is concerned with testing the time series implications of the capital asset pricing model (CAPM) due to … evidence against Sharpe-Lintner CAPM is found mainly during the recent financial crisis. Furthermore, a strong negative … during episodes of market inefficiencies. -- CAPM ; testing for alpha ; market efficiency ; long/short equity returns ; large …

The heterogeneous response of real estate asset prices to a global shock
Heiniger, Sandro; Koeniger, Winfried; Lechner, Michael - 2022
We estimate the transmission of the pandemic shock in 2020 to prices in the residential and commercial real estate market by causal machine learning, using new granular data at the municipal level for Germany. We exploit differences in the incidence of Covid infections or short-time work at the...

How much can we trust causal interpretations of fixed-effects estimators in the context of criminality?
Bjerk, David - 2009
Researchers are often interested in estimating the causal effect of some treatment on individual criminality. For example, two recent relatively prominent papers have attempted to estimate the respective direct effects of marriage and gang participation on individual criminal activity. One...

Bias corrections for two-step fixed effects panel data estimators
Fernández-Val, Iván (contributor);  … - 2007
This paper introduces bias-corrected estimators for nonlinear panel data models with both time invariant and time varying heterogeneity. These include limited dependent variable models with both unobserved individual effects and endogenous explanatory variables, and sample selection models with...

Pinning down the value of statistical life
Kniesner, Thomas J.; Viscusi, W. Kip; Woock, Christopher; … - 2007
Our research addresses fundamental long-standing concerns in the compensating wage differentials literature and its public policy implications: the econometric properties of estimates of the value of statistical life (VSL) and the wide range of such estimates from about $0.5 million to about $21...

Exponent of cross-sectional dependence : estimation and inference
Bailey, Natalia; Kapetanios, George; Pesaran, M. Hashem - 2012
An important issue in the analysis of cross-sectional dependence which has received renewed interest in the past few years is the need for a better understanding of the extent and nature of such cross dependencies. In this paper we focus on measures of cross-sectional dependence and how such...

Nonparametric kernel estimation of the impact of tax policy on the demand for private health insurance in Australia
Gong, Xiaodong; Gao, Jiti - 2015
This paper is motivated by our attempt to answer an empirical question: how is private health insurance take-up in Australia affected by the income threshold at which the Medicare Levy Surcharge (MLS) kicks in? We propose a new difference de-convolution kernel estimator for the location and size...
