The Feldstein-Horioka (FH) puzzle, that is the strong correlation between saving and investment in a world where obstacles to capital mobility are limited, has been studied extensively since it was exposed in 1980. Even though the theoretical and empirical literature has examined many of its...

This paper investigates the causal relationship between asset prices and per capita output across 50 US states and the District of Columbia over 1975 to 2012. A bootstrap panel Granger causality approach is applied on a trivariate VAR comprising of real house prices, real stock prices and real...

This paper studies the interplay of fiscal policy and asset price returns of the United States in a time-varying-parameter vector autoregressive model. Using annual data from 1890 to 2013, we study the effects of dynamic shocks to both fiscal policy and asset returns on asset returns and fiscal...

This paper examines the causal relationship between economic policy uncertainty (EPU) and equity market uncertainty (EMU) in the US using linear and nonlinear Granger causality tests. We use daily data on the newly developed indexes by Baker et al. (2013) covering 1985:01:01 to 2013:06:14....

This paper examines the causal relationship between oil consumption and economic growth in the BRICS countries using annual data from 1985 to 2011. We employ a bootstrap panel causality approach based on meta-analysis in heterogeneous mixed panels which accounts for both cross sectional...

This paper re-examines the nature of the causality between natural gas consumption and economic growth in G-7 countries using a Granger causality procedure based on meta-analysis in heterogeneous mixed panels which takes into account cross-sectional dependence and heterogeneity across countries....

This paper examines the causal relationship between renewable energy consumption and economic growth for the G7 countries using annual data from 1990 to 2011. We implement a bootstrap panel causality procedure which allows us to circumvent the data limitation while accounting for the...

This paper analyses the causal linkages between nuclear energy consumption and economic growth for a panel of six developed countries including Canada, France, Germany, Japan, the UK and the US. Using annual data from 1971 to 2011, a Granger causality procedure based on meta-analysis in...

This paper empirically analyses the causal linkages between coal consumption and economic growth in the BRICS countries using annual data from 1985 to 2009. We apply a panel causality methodology that accounts for both cross-section dependence and heterogeneity across countries. Empirical...

This paper investigates the causality between oil price and economic uncertainty in India. In order to test for this relationship, we collect data on the Brent crude oil price as well as the crude oil ETF volatility index. We also use the policy-related economic uncertainty index as well as the...
