Cointegrating Regressions with Messy Regressors: Missingness, Mixed Frequency, and Measurement Error
نویسنده
چکیده
We consider a cointegrating regression in which the integrated regressors are messy in the sense that they contain data that may be mismeasured, missing, observed at mixed frequencies, or have other irregularities that cause the econometrician to observe them with mildly nonstationary noise. Least squares estimation of the cointegrating vector is consistent. Existing prototypical variancebased estimation techniques, such as canonical cointegrating regression (CCR), are both consistent and asymptotically mixed normal. This result is robust to weakly dependent but possibly nonstationary disturbances. First draft: January 18, 2007 This draft: April 14, 2009 JEL Classification: C13, C14, C32

Cointegrating MiDaS Regressions and a MiDaS Test
This paper introduces cointegrating mixed data sampling (CoMiDaS) regressions, generalizing nonlinear MiDaS regressions in the extant literature. Under a linear mixed-frequency data-generating process, MiDaS regressions provide a parsimoniously parameterized nonlinear alternative when the linear forecasting model is over-parameterized and may be infeasible. In spite of potential correlation of ...
متن کاملInstrumental variables estimation of stationary and non-stationary cointegrating regressions
Instrumental variables estimation is classically employed to avoid simultaneous equations bias in a stable environment. Here we use it to improve upon ordinary least-squares estimation of cointegrating regressions between non-stationary and/or long memory stationary variables where the integration orders of regressor and disturbance sum to less than 1, as happens always for stationary regressor...
متن کاملBootstrapping Cointegrating Regressions1
In this paper, we consider bootstrapping cointegrating regressions. It is shown that the method of bootstrap, if properly implemented, generally yields consistent estimators and test statistics for cointegrating regressions. We do not assume any speci ̄c data generating process, and employ the sieve bootstrap based on the approximated ̄nite-order vector autoregressions for the regression errors ...
متن کاملConditionally Efficient Estimation of Long-run Relationships Using Mixed-frequency Time Series
I analyze efficient estimation of a cointegrating vector when the regressand is observed at a lower frequency than the regressors. Previous authors have examined the effects of specific temporal aggregation or sampling schemes, finding conventionally efficient techniques to be efficient only when both the regressand and the regressors are average sampled. Using an alternative method for analyzi...
متن کاملNonlinear econometric models with cointegrated and deterministically trending regressors
This paper develops an asymptotic theory for a general class of nonlinear nonstationary regressions, extending earlier work by Phillips and Hansen (1990) on linear cointegrating regressions.The model considered accommodates a linear time trend and stationary regressors, as well as multiple I(1) regressors. We establish consistency and derive the limit distribution of the nonlinear least squares...
