En este artículo se introducen nuevos esquemas de ponderación para promediar de modelos econométricos cuando se está interesado en combinar predicciones de variables discretas provenientes de modelos con cambios de régimen markoviano. En una aplicación empírica, se pronostican los puntos...

In this paper, I numerically simulate the path of economy in an economic depression. It is not easy to perform a numerical simulation of the path to a steady state if households are assumed to behave by generating rational expectations. It is much easier, however, if households are assumed to...

We discuss the economic reasons why the predictions of price and return statistical moments in the coming decades, in the best case, will be limited by their averages and volatilities. That limits the accuracy of the forecasts of price and return probabilities by Gaussian distributions. The...

This paper studies the links between the descriptions of macroeconomic variables and statistical moments of market trade, price, and return. The randomness of market trade values and volumes during the averaging interval Δ results in the random properties of price and return. We describe how...

Financial deepening plays a pivotal role in fostering economic growth, alleviating poverty, and mitigating social inequalities. Employing the Vector Autoregressive Model (VAR), this study examines the implications of per capita gross domestic product (GDP), interest rates, and inflation rates...

The paper estimates that the pass-through coefficient of a devaluation to prices paid by consumers in around 20-25% and has a duration of 6 to 8 months, in general. The economic model underlying the estimate follows an adaptive expectations scheme on the free exchange rate, while the associated...

In this paper the Bry and Boschan (1971) procedure is modified such that it can be applied to quarterly data in order to recalculate the maximum duration of business cycles. In this way it can be shown that the maximum duration of business cycles constitutes 42 quarters in the United States of...
