Despite the clear success of forecast combination in many economic environments, several important issues remain incompletely resolved. The issues relate to selection of the set of forecasts to combine, and whether some form of additional regularization (e.g., shrinkage) is desirable. Against...

This paper explores the impact of incomplete markets and strong complementarities on the time series properties of aggregate activity. We consider an economy which consists of a large number of industries whose production functions both are nonconvex and exhibit localized technological...

This article summarizes our views on the role of an "aggregation bias" in explaining the PPP Puzzle, in response to the … counter-examples which are not empirically relevant; (ii) simulation results minimizing the extent of "aggregation bias"; (iii … corrections. We conclude, as in our original paper, that "aggregation bias" goes a long way towards explaining the PPP puzzle …
