There is now a great deal of empirical evidence that business cycle uctuations contain asymmetries. The asymmetries found in post-war US data are inconsistent with the behavior of the US economy in the Great Depression. In a model where business cycle asymmetries are produced by rational uctuations in the con dence of investors, I examine whether this inconsistency can be explained by di erence...
متن کاملModeling Asymmetric Persistence over the Business Cycle
We address the issue of time varying persistence of shocks to macroeconomic time series variables by proposing a new and parsimonious time series model. Our model assumes that this time varying persistence depends on a linear combination of lagged explanatory variables, where this combination characterizes the business cycle regimes. The key feature of our model is that an autoregressive parame...
متن کاملRecent Changes in the US Business Cycle∗
The US business cycle expansion that started in March 1991 is the longest on record. This paper uses statistical techniques to examine whether this expansion is a onetime unique event or whether its length is a result of a change in the stability of the US economy. Bayesian methods are used to estimate a common factor model that allows for structural breaks in the dynamics of a wide range of ma...
