Title: A survey of econometric methods for mixed-frequency data Author(s): FORONI, Claudia; MARCELLINO, Massimiliano Date: 2013 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO; 2013/02 Abstract: The development of models for variables sampled at different frequencies has attracted substantial interest in the recent econometric literature. In this paper we provide an overview of the most common techniques, including ... -

Title: The Multiscale Causal Dynamics of Foreign Exchange Markets Author(s): BEKIROS, Stelios D.; MARCELLINO, Massimiliano Date: 2011 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO; 2011/23 Abstract: This paper relies on wavelet multiresolution analysis to capture the dependence structure of currency markets and reveal the complex dynamics across different timescales. It investigates the nature and direction of causal ...
-
Title: Markov-Switching MIDAS Models Author(s): GUÉRIN, Pierre; MARCELLINO, Massimiliano Date: 2011 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO; 2011/03 Abstract: This paper introduces a new regression model - Markov-switching mixed data sampling (MS-MIDAS) - that incorporates regime changes in the parameters of the mixed data sampling (MIDAS) models and allows for the use of ...
-
Title: Empirical Simultaneous Confidence Regions for Path-Forecasts Author(s): JORDÀ, Òscar; KNÜPPEL, Malte; MARCELLINO, Massimiliano Date: 2010 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO; 2010/18 Abstract: Measuring and displaying uncertainty around path-forecasts, i.e. forecasts made in period T about the expected trajectory of a random variable in periods T+1 to T+H is a key ingredient for decision making under uncertainty. ...
-
Title: Endogenous Monetary Policy Regimes and the Great Moderation Author(s): GALVAO, Ana Beatriz C.; MARCELLINO, Massimiliano Date: 2010 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO; 2010/22 Abstract: This paper contributes to the literature on the changing transmission mechanism of monetary policy by introducing a model whose parameter evolution explicitly depends on the conduct of monetary policy. We find that the ...

Title: The Reliability of Real Time Estimates of the EURO Area Output Gap Author(s): MARCELLINO, Massimiliano; MUSSO, Alberto Date: 2010 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO; 2010/06 Abstract: This paper provides evidence on the reliability of euro area real-time output gap estimates, including those provided by the IMF, OECD and EC and a set of model based measures. A genuine real-time data set is used, including ...
-
Title: Anchors for Inflation Expectations Author(s): DEMERTZIS, Maria; MARCELLINO, Massimiliano; VIEGI, Nicola Date: 2010 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO; 2010/10 Abstract: We identify credible monetary policy with first, a disconnect between inflation and inflation expectations and second, the anchoring of the latter at the inflation target announced by the monetary authorities. We test ...
-
Title: The Forecasting Performance of Real Time Estimates of the EURO Area Output Gap Author(s): MARCELLINO, Massimiliano; MUSSO, Alberto Date: 2010 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO; 2010/15 Abstract: This paper provides real time evidence on the usefulness of the euro area output gap as a leading indicator for inflation and growth. A genuine real-time data set for the euro area is used, including vintages of several ...
-
Title: Forecasting Government Bond Yields with Large Bayesian VARs Author(s): CARRIERO, Andrea; KAPETANIOS, George; MARCELLINO, Massimiliano Date: 2010 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO; 2010/17 Abstract: We propose a new approach to forecasting the term structure of interest rates, which allows to efficiently extract the information contained in a large panel of yields. In particular, we use a large Bayesian Vector ...

Title: Forecasting with Factor-augmented Error Correction Models Author(s): MASTEN, Igor; BANERJEE, Anindya; MARCELLINO, Massimiliano Date: 2009 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI RSCAS; 2009/32 Abstract: As a generalization of the factor-augmented VAR (FAVAR) and of the Error Correction Model (ECM), Banerjee and Marcellino (2009) introduced the Factor-augmented Error Correction Model (FECM). The FECM combines error-correction, ...

Title: Pooling versus Model Selection for Nowcasting with Many Predictors: An Application to German GDP Author(s): KUZIN, Vladimir; MARCELLINO, Massimiliano; SCHUMACHER, Christian Date: 2009 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO; 2009/13 Abstract: This paper discusses pooling versus model selection for now- and forecasting in the presence of model uncertainty with large, unbalanced datasets. Empirically, unbalanced data is pervasive in economics and typically due ...

-
Title: MIDAS vs. Mixed-frequency VAR: Nowcasting GDP in the Euro Area Author(s): KUZIN, Vladimir; MARCELLINO, Massimiliano; SCHUMACHER, Christian Date: 2009 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO; 2009/32 Abstract: This paper compares the mixed-data sampling (MIDAS) and mixed-frequency VAR (MF- VAR) approaches to model speci cation in the presence of mixed-frequency data, e.g., monthly and quarterly series. MIDAS leads to parsimonious ...
