Robust resampling methods for time series

Camponovo, Lorenzo; Scaillet, Olivier; Trojani, Fabio - 2010 - This version: May 9, 2010

We study the robustness of block resampling procedures for time series. We first derive a set of formulas to … applications. This renders inference based on standard resampling methods useless already in simple estimation and testing settings …. To solve this problem, we introduce a robust fast resampling scheme that is applicable to a wide class of time series …

Detecting serial dependence in tail events

Diks, Cees G. H. - 2002

A test for serial independence is proposed which is related to the BDS test but focuses on tail event probabilities rather than probabilities near the center of the distribution. The motivation behind this approach is to obtain a test more suitable for detecting structure in the tails, such as...

Testing CAPM with a large number of assets

Pesaran, M. Hashem; Yamagata, Takashi - 2012

This paper is concerned with testing the time series implications of the capital asset pricing model (CAPM) due to Sharpe (1964) and Lintner (1965), when the number of securities, N, is large relative to the time dimension, T, of the return series. In the case of cross-sectionally correlated...

Shortcomings of a parametric VaR approach and nonparametric improvements based on a non-stationary return series model

Gürtler, Marc; Rauh, Ronald - 2009 - This Version: 2009-09-09

A non-stationary regression model for financial returns is examined theoretically in this paper. Volatility dynamics are modelled both exogenously and deterministic, captured by a nonparametric curve estimation on equidistant centered returns. We prove consistency and asymptotic normality of a...

Adaptive testing for cointegration with nonstationary volatility

Boswijk, Herman Peter; Zu, Yang - 2019

This paper generalises Boswijk and Zu (2018)'s adaptive unit root test for time series with nonstationary volatility to a multivariate context. Persistent changes in the innovation variance matrix of a vector autoregressive model lead to size distortions in conventional cointegration tests,...

Bootstrapping autoregressions with conditional heteroskedasticity of unknown form

Gonçalves, Sílvia; Kilian, Lutz - 2002

Conditional heteroskedasticity is an important feature of many macroeconomic and financial time series. Standard residual-based bootstrap procedures for dynamic regression models treat the regression error as i.i.d. These procedures are invalid in the presence of conditional heteroskedasticity....

Testing mean-variance efficiency in CAPM with possibly non-gaussian errors : an exact simulation-based approach

Beaulieu, Marie-Claude; Dufour, Jean-Marie; Khalaf, Lynda - 2003

In this paper we propose exact likelihood-based mean-variance efficiency tests of the market portfolio in the context of Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM), allowing for a wide class of error distributions which include normality as a special case. These tests are developed in the framework of...

Technical trading revisited : false discoveries, persistence tests, and transaction costs

Bajgrowicz, Pierre; Scaillet, Olivier - 2009 - This version: Sept. 2009

We revisit the apparent historical success of technical trading rules on daily prices of the DJIA index from 1897 to 2011, and use the False Discovery Rate as a new approach to data snooping. The advantage of the FDR over existing methods is that it selects more outperforming rules which allows...

Non-parametric stochastic simulations to investigate uncertainty around the OECD indicator model forecasts

Rusticelli, Elena - 2012

The forecasting uncertainty around point macroeconomic forecasts is usually measured by the historical performance of the forecasting model, using measures such as root mean squared forecasting errors (RMSE). This measure, however, has the major drawback that it is constant over time and hence...

Robust subsampling

Camponovo, Lorenzo (contributor); … - 2006

We characterize the robustness of subsampling procedures by deriving a formula for the breakdown point of subsampling quantiles. This breakdown point can be very low for moderate subsampling block sizes, which implies the fragility of subsampling procedures, even if they are applied to robust...
