We investigate whether alternative asset classes should be included in optimal portfolios of the most prominent investor personae in the Behavioral Finance literature, namely, the Cumulative Prospect Theory, the Markowitz and the Loss Averse types of investors. We develop a stochastic spanning...

The bootstrap is a method for estimating the distribution of an estimator or test statistic by resampling one’s data or … a model estimated from the data. Under conditions that hold in a wide variety of econometric applications, the bootstrap … reductions in the differences between true and nominal coverage or rejection probabilities can be very large. The bootstrap is a …

This paper considers a multivariate extension of the test for neglected nonlinearity proposed by Tsay (1986) that uses principal components to overcome the problem of dimensionality that is common with tests of this type. Monte Carlo experiments reveal that the modified multivariate test...

Various forms of instability can be observed in macroeconomic and financial data including changes in variance, changes in cycle properties, or both. Traditional tests do not allow to distinguish between these different cases. This paper proposes and compares two alternative approaches. The...

This note shows that German real GDP follows a trendstationary process. Both tests which have trendstationarity as the alternative hypothesis as well as tests that have it under the null hypothesis prefer the trendstationary model. Explicit consideration of breaks in the trend is not necessary...

The main causes of Portuguese inflation, based on annual data from 1954 to 1995, using the Johansen method, allows us to conclude that variation in Portuguese inflation is determined essentially by foreign inflation and by variation in the effective exchange rate of the Portuguese Escudo (PTE)....

The export-led growth (ELG) hypothesis for the Philippines is examined by adopting a semiparametric approach under two levels of temporal aggregation. To assess the impact of model specification on the ELG hypothesis, parametric and semiparametric error-correction models (ECMs) are estimated...

This paper is concerned with parameter estimation and inference in a cointegrating regression, where as usual endogenous regressors as well as serially correlated errors are considered. We propose a simple, new estimation method based on an augmented partial sum (integration) transformation of...
