Asymmetries, breaks, and long-range dependence: An estimation framework for daily realized volatility
N 578, 01/10/2010
We study the simultaneous occurrence of long memory and nonlinear effects, such as parameter changes and threshold effects, in time series models and apply our modeling framework to daily realized measures of integrated variance. Asymptotic theory for parameter estimation is developed and two model building procedures are proposed. The methodology is applied to stocks of the Dow Jones Industrial Average during the period 2000 to 2009. We find strong evidence of nonlinear effects in financial volatility. An out-of-sample analysis shows that modeling these effects can improve forecast performance.

Nonlinear Cointegration, Misspecification and Bimodality
N 577, 01/10/2010
We derive the asymptotic distribution of the ordinary least squares estimator in a regression
with cointegrated variables under misspecification and/or nonlinearity in the regressors. We show
that, under some circumstances, the order of convergence of the estimator changes and the asymptotic
distribution is non-standard. The t-statistic might also diverge. A simple case arises when the intercept
is erroneously omitted from the estimated model or in nonlinear-in-variables models with endogenous
regressors. In the latter case, a solution is to use an instrumental variable estimator. The core results in
this paper also generalise to more complicated nonlinear models involving integrated time series.
