Government bond market linkages: evidence from Europe

TL;DR: This paper examined linkages among six major European government bond markets (Germany, France, Italy, UK, Belgium and the Netherlands) during 1988-2003 and found that a stable long-run relationship exists among the six markets during the sample period.

Short-Run and Long-Run Persistence in Mutual Funds

TL;DR: In this paper, an empirical examination of a strategy that picks equity mutual funds on the basis of past short-and long-run performance provides some interesting results, concluding that short-run mutual fund performance is likely to persist in the long run.

Some recent developments in predictive accuracy testing with nested models and (generic) nonlinear alternatives

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examine and discuss three key issues one is faced with when constructing predictive accuracy tests, namely: the contribution of parameter estimation error (PEE), the choice of linear versus nonlinear models, and the issue of (dynamic) misspecification.

Propensity to Switch Auditors and Strictness of Legal Liability Environment: The Role of Audit Mispricing

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated whether firms paying relatively high audit fees are more likely to switch auditors, and they investigated whether the legal liability environment affects the propensity to switch auditor owing to audit fee under and/or over-pricing.

Monetary Policy Indeterminacy and Identification Failures in the U.S.: Results from A Robust Test

TL;DR: In this article, the authors propose a robust test for the null hypothesis that an estimated new-Keynesian model has a reduced form consistent with the unique stable solution against the alternative of sunspot-driven multiple equilibria.

Consistent Covariance Matrix Estimation with Spatially Dependent Panel Data

TL;DR: The authors presented conditions under which a simple extension of common nonparametric covariance matrix estimation techniques yields standard error estimates that are robust to very general forms of spatial and temporal dependence as the time dimension becomes large.

Assessing the Contribution of Venture Capital to Innovation

TL;DR: This paper examined the influence of venture capital on patent applications in twenty industries over three decades and found that increases in venture capital activity in an industry are associated with significantly higher patenting rates.

Approximately Normal Tests for Equal Predictive Accuracy in Nested Models

TL;DR: In this paper, the mean squared prediction error (MSPE) from the parsimonious model is adjusted to account for the noise in the large model's model. But, the adjustment is based on the nonstandard limiting distributions derived in Clark and McCracken (2001, 2005a) to argue that use of standard normal critical values will yield actual sizes close to, but a little less than, nominal size.

Tests of Conditional Predictive Ability

TL;DR: This paper proposed a framework for out-of-sample predictive ability testing and forecast selection designed for use in the realistic situation in which the forecasting model is possibly misspecified, due to unmodeled dynamics, unmodelled heterogeneity, incorrect functional form, or any combination of these.
