We construct risks around consensus forecasts of real GDP growth, unemployment, and inflation. We find that risks are … unemployment risk, and increased uncertainty around the inflation forecast. Growth vulnerability arises as the conditional mean and … unemployment are positively correlated, with tighter financial conditions corresponding to higher forecasted unemployment and …

This paper considers Bayesian regression with normal and doubleexponential priors as forecasting methods based on large panels of time series. We show that, empirically, these forecasts are highly correlated with principal component forecasts and that they perform equally well for a wide range...

This paper develops a framework that allows us to combine the tools provided by structural models for economic interpretation and policy analysis with those of reduced-form models designed for nowcasting. We show how to map a quarterly dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) model into a...
