A Note on Tractable State-Space Model for Symmetric Positive-Definite Matrices

This article discusses Windle and Carvalho's (2014) state-space model for observations and latent variables in the space of positive symmetric matrices. The present discussion focuses on the model specification and on the contribution to the positive-value time series literature. I apply the proposed model to financial data with a view to shedding light on some modeling issues.
