This paper extends the complete subset linear regression framework to a quantile regression setting. We employ complete subset combinations of quantile forecasts in order to construct robust and accurate equity premium predictions. Our recursive algorithm that selects, in real time, the best...

We propose a new methodology for decomposing the persistence of deviations from purchasing power parity (PPP). By directly comparing the impulse response function (IRF) of a vector autoregressive (VAR) model, where the real exchange rate is Granger caused by a set of candidate variables, with...

This paper investigates whether the HML, the SMB along with the short-term reversal, the long-term reversal and the momentum factors exhibit both in-sample and out-of-sample forecasting ability for the US stock returns. Our findings suggest that these factors contain significantly more...
