This study applies the bootstrap panel causality test proposed by Kónya (2006), which accounts for both dependency and heterogeneity across countries, to test the causal link between population growth and economic growth in 21 countries over the period of 1870-2013. With regards to the...

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 applies a time-varying parameter vector autoregressive (TVP-VAR) approach to estimate the relative effects of housing and stock prices on US consumption over time. We use annual data from 1890 to 2012 and find that over different horizons and over time, generally the housing price...

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 assesses the predictive ability of asset prices relative to other variables in forecasting inflation and real GDP growth in South Africa. A total of 42 asset and non-asset predictor variables are considered. Forecasts of inflation and real GDP growth are computed using both individual...
