Literature shows that the regression of independent and (nearly) nonstationary time series could result in spurious outcomes. In this paper, we conjecture that under some situations, the regression of two independent and nearly non-stationary series does not have any spurious problem at all. To...

We simulate a simplified version of the price process including bubbles and crashes proposed in Kreuser and Sornette (2018). The price process is defined as a geometric random walk combined with jumps modelled by separate, discrete distributions associated with positive (and negative) bubbles....

The hypothesis of structural stability that the regression coefficients do not change over time is central to all applications of linear regression models. It is rather surprising that existing theory as well as practice focuses on testing for structural change under homoskedasticity – that...

In this paper, we introduce a set of critical values for unit root tests that are robust in the presence of conditional heteroscedasticity errors using the normalizing and variance-stabilizing transformation (NoVaS) and examine their properties using Monte Carlo methods. In terms of the size of...

In this paper, we propose an intuitive way to couple several dynamic time series models by inducing dependence between the so-called generalized errors of each model. This extends previous work for modelling dependance between innovations of stochastic volatility models. We consider...

Many researchers have only focused on a single way of collecting data when other methods are available. This study proposes a template for researchers who intend to use the qualitative means in extracting data for analysis. The template shows the Olonite Observation Extract Template (OOEXT)

This paper uses wavelet theory to propose a frequency domain nonparametric and tuning parameter free family of unit root tests indexed by the fractional parameter d. The proposed test exploits the wavelet power spectrum of the observed series and its fractional partial sum to construct a test of...

This article addresses unit root testing on regulated series through the variance ratio (VR) statistic of Nielsen (2009). The asymptotic distribution of the regulated VR statistic is developed with and without OLS detrending. Results of Cavaliere and Xu (2011) are extended by also developing the...
