This paper presents tests of the Cagan hyperinflation-money demand model which have several advantages relative to those in the literature. They do not confound specification error and rational bubbles, are implementable with a linear procedure, and are frequently able to detect the periodically...

The main contribution of this paper is to add to the literature by suggesting a dynamic OLS (DOLS) estimator and providing a serious comparison of the finite sample properties of the OLS, fully modified OLS (FMOLS), and DOLS estimators in panel cointegrated regression models. Monte Carlo results...

This paper revisits the fractional cointegrating relationship between ex-ante implied volatility and ex-post realized volatility. We argue that the concept of corridor implied volatility (CIV) should be used instead of the popular model-free option-implied volatility (MFIV) when assessing the...

Many macroeconomic and financial variables show highly persistent and correlated patterns but not necessarily cointegrated. Recently, Sun, Hsiao and Li (2010) propose using a semiparametric varying coefficient approach to capture correlations between integrated but non cointegrated variables....

Since an economic or financial variable may be affected by both stationary andnonstationary variables, this paper proposes a class of augmented cointegrating linear(ACL) models that accommodate these time series of different types. Moreover, thevariables are allowed to be strongly correlated in...

An asymptotic theory is developed for a weakly identified cointegrating regression model in which the regressor is a nonlinear transformation of an integrated process. Weak identification arises from the presence of a loading coefficient for the nonlinear function that may be close to zero. In...
