In models that have a representation of the form       ) , ( x g y the Wald test for ˆBeta has systematically wrong size in finite samples when the indentifying parameter Gamma is small relative to its estimation error. An alternative test based on linearization of...

This paper derives a new method for comparing the weak-form efficiency of markets. The author derives the formula of the Sharpe ratio from the ARMA-GARCH model and finds that the Sharpe ratio just depends on the coefficients of the AR and MA terms and is not affected by the GARCH process. For...

In this paper we study high moment partial sum processes based on residuals of a stationary ARMA model with or without a unknown mean parameter. We show that they can be approximated in probability by the analogous processes which are obtained from the independent and identically distributed...

We measure the loss potential of Hedge Funds by combining three market risk measures: VaR, Draw-Down and Time Under-The-Water. Calculations are carried out considering three different frameworks regarding Hedge Fund returns: i) Normality and time-independence, ii) Non-normality and time-...

The central idea of this study is to analyse the moving average timing model that improves the risk-adjusted returns across various asset classes. This quantitative method tests Bombay Stock Exchange Index since 2000 on other diverse and publicly traded asset class indices, including the...

It is well known among practitioners that the seasonal adjustment applied to economic time series could involve several decisions to be made by the econometrician. In this paper, I assess which aggregation strategy delivers the best results for the case of the Chilean GDP 1986-2009 quarterly...

We consider maximum likelihood estimation of a particular noninvertible ARMA model with autoregressive conditionally heteroskedastic (ARCH) errors. The model can be seen as an extension to so-called all-pass models in that it allows for autocorrelation and for more fl exible forms of conditional...
