Moments of Markov switching models
This paper derives the moments for a range of Markov switching models. We characterize in detail the patterns of volatility, skewness and kurtosis that these models can produce as a function of the transition probabilities and parameters of the underlying state densities entering the switching process. The autocovariance of the level and squares of time series generated by Markov switching proc...
متن کاملValidating Markov Switching VAR Through Spectral Representations
We develop a method to validate the use of Markov switching models in modelling time series subject to structural changes. Particularly, we consider multivariate autoregressive models subject to Markov switching and derive close-form formulae for the spectral density of such models, based on their autocovariance functions and stable representations. Within this framework, we check the capabilit...
متن کاملVolatility spillovers, interdependence and comovements: A Markov Switching approach
The transmission mechanisms of volatility between markets can be characterized within a new Markov Switching bivariate model where the state of one variable feeds into the transition probability of the state of the other. A number of model restrictions and hypotheses can be tested to stress the role of one market relative to another (spillover, interdependence, comovement, independence, Granger...
متن کاملAsymmetric Effects of Monetary Policy and Business Cycles in Iran using Markov-switching Models
This paper investigates the asymmetric effects of monetary policy on economic growth over business cycles in Iran. Estimating the models using the Hamilton (1989) Markov-switching model and by employing the data for 1960-2012, the results well identify two regimes characterized as expansion and recession. Moreover, the results show that an expansionary monetary policy has a positive and statist...
متن کاملCausality and Regime Inference in a Markov Switching VAR
This paper analyses three Granger noncausality hypotheses within a conditionally Gaussian MS-VAR model. Noncausality in mean is based on Granger’s original concept for linear predictors by defining noncausality from the 1-step ahead forecast error variance for the conditional expectation. Noncausality in mean-variance concerns the conditional forecast error variance, while noncausality in distr...
