In this study, I investigate the necessary condition for consistency of the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) of spatial models with a spatial moving average process in the disturbance term. I show that the MLE of spatial autoregressive and spatial moving average parameters is generally...

This paper develops cluster robust inference methods for panel quantile regression (QR) models with individual fixed effects, allowing arbitrary temporal correlation structure within each individual. The conventional QR standard errors assuming independent outcomes can seriously underestimate...

We propose Midastar models by combining the Mixed Data Sampling (MIDAS) and the threshold autoregression (TAR). The Midastar model of the first kind is designed for a low frequency target variable and a high frequency threshold variable. The proposed model can detect threshold effects...

This paper suggests an improved GMM estimator for the autoregressive parameter of a spatial autoregressive error model by taking into account that unobservable regression disturbances are different from observable regression residuals. Although this difference decreases in large samples, it is...
