Abstract
Test for Zero Mean of Errors In An ARMA-GGARCH Model After Using A Median Inference Abstract: The stylized fact of heavy tails makes median inferences appealing in fitting an ARMA model with heteroscedastic errors to financial returns. To ensure that the model still concerns the conditional mean, we test for a zero mean of the errors using a random weighted bootstrap method for quantifying estimation uncertainty. The proposed test is robust against heteroscedasticity and heavy tails as we do not infer the heteroscedasticity and need fewer finite moments. Simulations confirm the good finite sample performance in terms of size and power. Empirical applications caution the model interpretation after using a median inference.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
