A novel simulation-based methodology is proposed to test the validity of a set of marginal time series models, where the dependence structure between the time series is taken 'directly' from the observed data. The procedure is useful when one wants to summarize the test results for several time...

We propose a new pooled panel unit root test allowing for serial and contemporaneous correlation. The test combines Elliott et al. (1996) local-to-unity transformation with a pooled panel ADF test, and accounts for contemporaneous correlation by estimating the residual covariance matrix. The...

A new non-causality test based on the notion of distance between ARMA models is proposed in this paper. The advantage of this test is that it can be used in possible integrated and cointegrated systems, without pre-testing for unit roots and cointegration. The Monte Carlo experiments indicate...

We conduct an extensive examination of the profitability of technical analysis in ten emerging foreign exchange markets. Studying 25,988 trading strategies for emerging foreign exchange markets, we find that the best rules can sometimes generate an annual mean excess return of more than 30%....

A model in which the response is monotonically related to a given exposure or predictor is considered. This is motivated by dose–response analysis, however it also applies to survival distributions depending on a series of ordered multinomial parameters or, in a more general context, to...

It is often argued that intraday returns can be used to construct covariance estimates that are more accurate than those based on daily returns. However, it is still unclear whether high frequency data provide more precise covariance estimates in markets more contaminated from microstructure...

Measuring dynamic dependence between international financial markets has recently attracted great interest in financial econometrics because the observed correlations rose dramatically during the 2008–09 global financial crisis. Here, we propose a novel approach for measuring dependence...
