We establish sufficient conditions on durations that are stationary with finite variance and memory parameter <inline-graphic>null</inline-graphic> to ensure that the corresponding counting process <italic>N</italic>(<italic>t</italic>) satisfies Var <italic>N</italic>(<italic>t</italic>) ~ <italic>Ct</italic>² (<italic>C</italic> 0) as <italic>t</italic> → ∞, with the same memory parameter <inline-graphic>null</inline-graphic> that was assumed for the durations. Thus,...

Studies of predictive regressions analyze the case where yt is predicted by xt - 1 with xt being first-order autoregressive, AR(1). Under some conditions, the OLS-estimated predictive coefficient is known to be biased. We analyze a predictive model where yt is predicted by xt - 1,...

We propose a new hypothesis-testing method for multipredictor regressions in small samples, where the dependent variable is regressed on lagged variables that are autoregressive. The new test is based on the augmented regression method (Amihud and Hurvich, 2004), which produces reduced-bias...
