The Inf-T Test for a Unit Root against Asymmetric Exponential Smooth Transition Autoregressive Models

The Inf-T Test for a Unit Root against Asymmetric Exponential Smooth Transition Autoregressive... Abstract This paper proposes a new test for a unit root against an alternative of asymmetric exponential smooth transition autoregressive models, by extending the infimum test developed by Park and Shintani. Simulation results suggest that the test performs reasonably well in finite samples. The proposed test is also applied to real exchange rates to examine their asymmetric and nonlinear mean-reverting properties. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png The Japanese Economic Review Springer Journals
