The purpose of this article is to analyze the simultaneity of spatial dependence in the first-order spatial autoregressive model, SAR(1). Spatial dependence can be not only contemporary but also time-lagged in many socio-economic phenomena. In this paper, we use three Moran-based spacetime...

This study extends the research of Atesoglu (2003-4; 2004) with respect to the horizontalist and structuralist money supply endogeneity hypotheses to the case of fixed mortgage rates. The momentum threshold autoregressive model of Enders and Siklos (2001) reveals that the fixed mortgage rate and...

In this paper the contributions of economic and financial integration to international stock markets comovements are investigated by means of a large scale macroeconometric model, set in the factor vector autoregressive framework (FVAR). The findings point to a key role of both economic and...

In this paper international comovements among a set of key real and nominal macroeconomic variables for the G-7 countries have been investigated for the 1980-2005 period, using a Factor Vector Autoregressive approach. We present evidence that comovements in macroeconomic variables do not concern...

Volatility–volume regressions provide a convenient framework to study sources of volatility predictability. We apply this approach to the daily realized volatility of common stocks. We find that unexpected volume plays a more significant role in explaining realized volatility than expected...

This paper tests the hypothesis that real per capita income growth rates are random walks against the hypothesis implied by models of endogenous growth that they are stationary. Thereby the influence of the choice of different test statistics as well as the choice of the H0 on the test results...

Two terms of a second-order approximation to the bias of the multivariate OLS estimate are derived using the same technique as in Nicholls and Pope (1988). The resulting second-order bias approximation is then tested against first-order alternatives on two bivariate Monte Carlo sijmulated VAR...
