The predictability of long-term asset returns increases with the time horizon as estimated in regressions of aggregated-forward returns on aggregated-backward predictive variables. This previously established evidence is consistent with the presence of common slow-moving components that are...

It is well known that standard tests for a mean shift are invalid in long-range dependent time series. Therefore, several long memory robust extensions of standard testing principles for a change-in-mean have been proposed in the literature. These can be divided into two groups: those that...

This paper considers estimation and testing of multiple breaks that occur at unknown dates in multivariate long-memory time series. We propose a likelihood ratio based approach for estimating breaks in the mean and the covariance of a system of long-memory time series. The limiting distribution...

This paper focuses on the estimation and testing of multiple breaks that occur at unknown dates in multivariate long memory time series regression models, allowing for fractional cointegration. A likelihood-ratio based approach for estimating the breaks in the parameters and in the covariance of...

Many time series exhibit unconditional heteroskedasticity, often in addition to conditional one. But such time-varying volatility of the data generating process can have rather adverse effects when inferring about its persistence; e.g. unit root and stationarity tests possess null distributions...

Nonstationarity of the volatility process reflects low-frequency volatility changes of an economic time series, and its theoretical and empirical relevance has been widely recognized. We investigate how it affects CUSUM-related tests for structural change in regression coefficients....

In this study, we consider a four-regime bubble model under the assumption of time-varying volatility and propose the algorithm of estimating the break dates with volatility correction: First, we estimate the emerging date of the explosive bubble, its collapsing date, and the recovering date to...

In this study, we extend the three-regime bubble model of Pang et al. (2021) to allow the forth regime followed by the unit root process after recovery. We provide the asymptotic and finite sample justification of the consistency of the collapse date estimator in the two-regime AR(1) model. The...

This review discusses methods of testing for a cointegration in a time series in thepresence of structural breaks. The review covers a large number of recently developedtesting methods based on both one equation and multiple equation frameworks. In addition,various methods for estimating the...

We develop a new parameter stability test against the alternative of observation driven generalized autoregressive score dynamics. The new test generalizes the ARCH-LM test of Engle (1982) to settings beyond time-varying volatility and exploits any autocorrelation in the likelihood scores under...
