Dynamic Factor Models with Time-Varying Parameters : Measuring Changes in International Business Cycles

Del Negro, Marco - 2008

We develop a dynamic factor model with time-varying factor loadings and stochastic volatility in both the latent factors and idiosyncratic components. We employ this new measurement tool to study the evolution of international business cycles in the post-Bretton Woods period, using a panel of...

Global financial cycles since 1880

Potjagailo, Galina; Wolters, Maik H. - 2019

The authors analyze cyclical co-movement in credit, house prices, equity prices, and long-term interest rates across 17 advanced economies. Using a time-varying multi-level dynamic factor model and more than 130 years of data, they analyze the dynamics of co-movement and compare recent...

Global financial cycles since 1880

Potjagailo, Galina; Wolters, Maik H. - 2019

We analyze cyclical co-movement in credit, house prices, equity prices, and long-term interest rates across 17 advanced economies. Using a time-varying multi-level dynamic factor model and more than 130 years of data, we analyze the dynamics of co-movement at different levels of aggregation and...

Is there really a global business cycle? : a dynamic factor model with stochastic factor selection

Berger, Tino; Pozzi, Lorenzo - 2016

We investigate the presence of international business cycles in macroeconomic aggregates (output, consumption, investment) using a panel of 60 countries over the period 1961 - 2014. The paper presents a Bayesian stochastic factor selection approach for dynamic factor models with predetermined...

A multi-country approach to analysing the euro area output gap

Huber, Florian; Piribauer, Philipp - 2018

We develop a multivariate dynamic factor model that exploits euro area country-specific information on output and inflation for estimating an area-wide measure of the output gap. In the proposed multi-country framework we moreover allow for flexible stochastic volatility (SV) specifications for...

Tracking growth and the business cycle : a stochastic common cycle model for the Euro area

Azevedo, João Valle e; Koopman, Siem Jan; Rua, António - 2003

This paper proposes a new model-based method to obtain a coincident indicator for the business cycle. A dynamic factor model with trend components and a common cycle component is considered which can be estimated using standard maximum likelihood methods. The multivariate unobserved components...

Nowcasting Business Cycles : A Bayesian Approach to Dynamic Heterogeneous Factor Models

D'Agostino, Antonello - 2015

We develop a framework for measuring and monitoring business cycles in real time. Following a long tradition in macroeconometrics, inference is based on a variety of indicators of economic activity, treated as imperfect measures of an underlying index of business cycle conditions. We extend...
