In this paper we examine long-run house price convergence across US states using a novel econometric approach advocated … convergence based on the percentage of unit root rejections among all state house price differentials. Using a sieve bootstrap … procedure, we construct confidence intervals and find evidence in favour of convergence. We also conclude that speed of …

Long-run income convergence is investigated in the US context. We employ a novel pair-wise econometric procedure based … on a probabilistic definition of convergence. The time-series properties of all the possible regional income pairs are … distinguish between the cases of strong convergence, where the implied cointegrating vector is [1,-1], and weak convergence, where …

The stationarity of OECD real exchange rates over the period 1972-2008 is tested using a panel of twenty six member countries. The methodology followed stems from the need to meet several key concerns: (i) the identification of which panel members are stationary; (ii) the presence of...

In the second stage of our investigation, we analyse the drivers of convergence. The …

This paper describes the production of a panel of price indices for housing services, other produced goods and services, and all produced goods and services for each metropolitan area in the United States and the non-metropolitan part of each state for each year from 1982 through 2012. Our...

This article analyzes the hysteresis hypothesis in the unemployment rates of the four “French overseas regions†(Guadeloupe, Martinique, Guyana, Reunion) [FORs] over the period 1993-2008. We use standard univariate and panel unit root tests, among them Choi (2006) and Lopez (2009) that...

If borrowing capacity of indebted households is tied to the value of their home, house prices should enter a correctly specified aggregate Euler equation for consumption. I develop a simple two-agent, dynamic general equilibrium model in which home (collateral) values affect debt capacity and...

Although the volatility of house prices is often ascribed to demand-side factors, constraints on housing supply have important and little-studied implications for housing dynamics. I illustrate the strong relationship between the volatility of house prices and the regulation of new housing...
