This paper considers predictive regressions, where y_t is predicted by all p lags of x, here with x being autoregressive of order q, PR(p,q). The literature considers model properties in the cases where p=q. We demonstrate that the current augmented regression method can still reduce the bias in...

Regression models for proportions are frequently encountered in applied work. The conditional expectation function is bounded between 0 and 1 and therefore must be non-linear, requiring nonstandard panel data extensions. One possible approach is the binomial panel logit model with fixed effects...

Regression models for proportions are frequently encountered in applied work. The conditional expectation is bound between 0 and 1 and, therefore, must be non-linear which requires non-standard panel data extensions. The quasi-maximum likelihood estimator of Papke and Wooldridge (1996) suffers...

This paper studies gender and racial disparities in altruism among social network members who are endogenously linked. We specify group-specific (gender or race) altruistic interactions models, as well as intra- and inter-group altruistic interactions models, to capture the heterogeneous...

Forecasting stock market movements is a challenging task from the practitioners' point of view. We explore how model selection via the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) approach can be better used to forecast stock closing prices using real-world datasets of daily stock...

We take a deeper look at the robustness of evidence presented by Pastor, Stambaugh, and Taylor (2015) and Zhu (2018), who find that an actively managed mutual fund's returns relate negatively to both fund size and the size of the active mutual fund industry. When we apply robust regression...
