In this paper, we empirically assess the predictive accuracy of a large group of models based on the use of principle components and other shrinkage methods, including Bayesian model averaging and various bagging, boosting, LASSO and related methods Our results suggest that model averaging does...

We utilize mixed frequency factor-MIDAS models for the purpose of carrying out pastcasting, nowcasting, and forecasting experiments using real-time data. We also introduce a new real-time Korean GDP dataset, which is the focus of our experiments. The methodology that we utilize involves first...

In this paper, we show the first order validity of the block bootstrap in the context of Kolmogorov type conditional distribution tests when there is dynamic misspecification and parameter estimation error. Our approach differs from the literature to date because we construct a bootstrap...
