We assume that some consistent estimator of an equilibrium relation between non-stationary fractionally integrated series is used in a first step to compute residuals (or differences thereof). We propose to apply the semiparametric log-periodogram regression to the (differenced) residuals in...

In wissenschaftlichen Veröffentlichungen müssen häufig numerische Sachverhalte dargestellt werden. Dies kann in Form von Tabellen oder in Form von Schaubildern geschehen. Während eine Tabelle zur Darstellung einzelner Zahlen oder Matrizen (Input-Output-Tabelle) geeignet ist, lassen sich...

Thirteen Stylized Facts of the german economy are studied with different descriptive statistical methods. The results of this study are considered with respect to other results from Project B3 Multivariate Bestimmung und Untersuchung von Konjunkturzyklen.

We present a descriptive analysis of stylized facts for the German business cycle. We demonstrate that simple ad-hoc instructions for identifying univariate rules characterizing the German business cycle 1955-1994 lead to an error rate comparable to standard multivariate methods.
