Missing Events in Event Studies : Identifying the Effects of Partially-Measured News Surprises
Gürkaynak, Refet S. - 2018
Macroeconomic news announcements are elaborate and multi-dimensional. We consider a framework in which jumps in asset prices around macroeconomic news and monetary policy announcements reflect both the response to observed surprises in headline numbers and latent factors, reflecting other...

Tests of Hypotheses Arising in the Correlated Random Coefficient Model
Heckman, James J. - 2010
This paper examines the correlated random coefficient model. It extends the analysis of Swamy (1971, 1974), who pioneered the uncorrelated random coefficient model in economics. We develop the properties of the correlated random coefficient model and derive a new representation of the variance...

Indicator Variables for Optimal Policy under Asymmetric Information
Svensson, Lars E.O. - 2001
The optimal weights on indicators in models with partial information about the state of the economy and forward-looking variables are derived and interpreted, both for equilibria under discretion and under commitment. The private sector is assumed to have information about the state of the...

Indicator Variables for Optimal Policy
Svensson, Lars E.O. - 2000
The optimal weights on indicators in models with partial information about the state of the economy and forward-looking variables are derived and interpreted, both for equilibria under discretion and under commitment. An example of optimal monetary policy with a partially observable potential...

The Pruned State-Space System for Non-Linear DSGE Models : Theory and Empirical Applications
Andreasen, Martin M. - 2013
This paper studies the pruned state-space system for higher-order approximations to the solutions of DSGE models. For second- and third-order approximations, we derive the statistical properties of this system and provide closed-form expressions for first and second unconditional moments and...

Taking the Cochrane-Piazzesi Term Structure Model Out of Sample : More Data, Additional Currencies, and FX Implications
Hodrick, Robert J. - 2018
We examine the Cochrane and Piazzesi (2005, 2008) model in several out-of-sample analyzes. The model's one-factor forecasting structure characterizes the term structures of additional currencies in samples ending in 2003. In post-2003 data one-factor structures again characterize each currency's...

Information Costs and Sequential Information Sampling
Hébert, Benjamin - 2018
We propose a new approach to modeling the cost of information structures in rational inattention problems, the "neighborhood-based" cost functions. These cost functions have two properties that we view as desirable: they summarize the results of a sequential evidence accumulation problem, and...
