We introduce a new regression diagnostic, tailored to time-series and panel-data regressions, which characterizes the sensitivity of the OLS estimate to distinct time-series variation at different frequencies. The diagnostic is built on the novel result that the eigenvectors of a random walk...

A common practice in empirical macroeconomics is to examine alternative recursive orderings of the variables in structural vector autogressive (VAR) models. When the implied impulse responses look similar, the estimates are considered trustworthy. When they do not, the estimates are used to...
