The authors introduce a novel bootstrap approach to resampling asset price data that can be used for both finite-maturity assets and equities. The key insight is that they bootstrap primitive objects with more appealing statistical properties to avoid resampling series with strong time-series...

We investigate the factor structure of the term structure of interest rates and argue that characterizing the minimal dimension of the data-generating process is more challenging than currently appreciated. To circumvent these difficulties, we introduce a novel nonparametric bootstrap that is...
