Permanent-Transitory decomposition of cointegrated time series via Dynamic Factor Models, with an application to commodity prices
Casoli, Chiara; Lucchetti, Riccardo - 2021
In this article, we propose a cointegration-based Permanent-Transitory decomposition for nonstationary Dynamic Factor Models. Our methodology exploits the cointegration relations among the observable variables and assumes they are driven by a common and an idiosyncratic component. The common...

Ageing poorly? : accounting for the decline in earnings inequality in Brazil, 1995-2012
Ferreira, Francisco H. G.; Firpo, Sérgio Pinheiro; … - 2017
The Gini coefficient of labor earnings in Brazil fell by nearly a fifth between 1995 and 2012, from 0.50 to 0.41. The decline in earnings inequality was even larger by other measures, with the 90-10 percentile ratio falling by almost 40 percent. Although the conventional explanation of a falling...

Tax progressivity, economic booms, and trickle-up economics
Jackson, Laura; Otrok, Christopher M.; Owyang, Michael T. - 2019
We propose a method to decompose changes in the tax structure into a component measuring the level of taxes and a component orthogonal to the level that measures progressivity. While our focus is on the progessivity results, we find that the level shock is similar to standard tax shocks found in...
