It is well known that unit root limit distributions are sensitive to initial conditions in the distant past. If the distant past initialization is extended to the infinite past, the initial condition dominates the limit theory producing a faster rate of convergence, a limiting Cauchy...

Present econometric methodology of inference in cointegrating regression is extended to mildly integrated time series of the type introduced by Magdalinos and Phillips (2007, 2009). It is well known that conventional approaches to estimating cointegrat- ing regressions fail to produce even...

We discuss some conceptual and practical issues that arise from the presence of global energy balance effects on station level adjustment mechanisms in dynamic panel regressions with climate data. The paper provides asymptotic analyses, observational data computations, and Monte Carlo...
