The purpose of this paper is to examine the properties of locally explosive regimes in the light of steady state results for threshold auto-regressive (TAR) models recently derived by Knight and Satchell (2011) [Journal of Time Series Econometrics, 3]. We study the conditions under which a...

The purpose of this paper is to examine the properties of bubbles in the light of steady state results for threshold auto-regressive (TAR) models recently derived by Knight and Satchell (2011). We assert that this will have implications for econometrics. We study the conditions under which we...

The purpose of this paper is to look for bubbles in the Art Market using a structure based on steady state results for TAR models and appropriate definitions of bubbles recently put forward by Knight, Satchell and Srivastava (2011). The usual method for investigating bubbles is to measure prices...
