The spurious regression phenomenon, identified by Granger and Newbold (1974) is well known in econometrics. In fact, spurious regression occurs under a wide variety of Data Generating Processes: driftless unit root, unit root with drift, trend stationarity, broken-trend stationarity,… However,...

We present a new heteroskedastic conditional variance model using NonLinear Moving Average as the basis for this specification [NLMACH(q)]. The typical problem of this class of models-i.e., noninvertibility—is solved by means of an intuitive parametric restriction; this allows us to use...

This paper shows that the evolution of the level of Mexico real and real per capita output between 1895 and 2008 can be adequately described through a trendstationary model, affected by 4 structural breaks, which occurred at dates that seem to coincide with domestic institutional arrangements,...

It has been found that the t-statistic for testing the null of no relationship between two independent variables diverges asymptotically under a wide variety of nonstationary data generating processes. This paper introduces a simple method which guarantees convergence of this t-statistic to a...

Castaño et al. (2008) proposed a test to investigate the existence of long memory based on the fractional differencing parameter of an ARFIMA (p, d, q) model. They showed that using an autoregressive approximation with order equal to the nearest integer of p* = T1/3 for the short-term component...

En este trabajo se analiza empíricamente la sostenibilidad fiscal en Colombia a través de las técnicas de cointegración. En particular, usando los ingresos tributarios y los gastos primarios del gobierno nacional central para el período 1990Q1 a 2008Q4 (datos reales y ajustados por el ciclo...
