This paper develops asymptotic theory for differentiated product demand models with a large number of markets T. It takes into account that the predicted market shares are approximated by Monte Carlo integration with R draws and that the observed market shares are approximated from a sample of N...

This paper is concerned with inference about an unidentified linear function, L(g), where the function g satisfies the relation Y=g(X)+U; E(U |W)=0. In this relation, Y is the dependent variable, X is a possibly endogenous explanatory variable, W is an instrument for X and U is an unobserved...

This paper develops asymptotic theory for estimated parameters in differentiated product demand systems with a fixed number of products, as the number of markets T increases, taking into account that the market shares are approximated by Monte Carlo integration. It is shown that the estimated...

We reassess the performance of market-timing rules when controlling for data-snooping biases. For the first time, a comprehensive set of simple and complex market-timing rules is examined and tested for statistical significance, using the White (2000) "Reality Check," the Hansen (2005) SPA test,...

This paper focuses on micro level marketing research to support the design and implementation of rural development programmes. Contemporary rural development efforts are directed primarily at promoting change so as to simultaneously affect the distribution and growth of income, employment,...

Seit Jahresbeginn wurde auf dem sächsischen und dem gesamten ostdeutschen Arbeitsmarkt die sozialversicherungspflichtige Beschäftigung weiter ausgebaut, während die geringfügige Beschäftigung zurückgefahren wurde. Auch die saisonbereinigte Zahl der freien Stellen ist erstmals seit...
