We review several methods to define and forecast classical business cycle turning points in Norway. In the paper we compare the Bry - Boschan rule (BB) with a Markov Switching model (MS), using alternative vintages of Norwegian Gross Domestic Product (GDP) as the business cycle indicator. The timing of business cycles depends on the vintage and the method used. BB provides the most reasonable definition of business cycles. The forecasting exercise, where the models are augmented with surveys or financial indicators, respectively, leads to the conclusion that the BB rule applied to density forecasts of GDP augmented with either the consumer confidence index or a financial conditions index provides the most timely predictions of peaks. For troughs, augmenting with surveys or financial indicators does not increase forecastability.
我们回顾了几种定义和预测挪威经典商业周期转折点的方法。在本文中,我们比较了Bry - Boschan规则(BB)和Markov切换模型(MS),使用挪威国内生产总值(GDP)的可选年份作为经济周期指标。商业周期的时间取决于年份和使用的方法。BB为商业周期提供了最合理的定义。在预测过程中,模型分别加入了调查或财务指标,得出的结论是,将BB规则应用于GDP的密度预测,再加上消费者信心指数或金融状况指数,可以最及时地预测峰值。对于低谷,增加调查或财务指标并不能提高可预测性。

Fishing in the Same Pool? Export Strengths and Competitiveness of China and CESEE in the EU-15 Market 在同一个池子里钓鱼?中国和CESEE在欧盟15国市场的出口优势与竞争力

We investigate the impact of China as a global competitor on the trade performance of the ten Central, Eastern and Southeastern European EU Member States (CESEE-10) in the EU-15 market. The paper takes a comprehensive approach as we analyze export growth, export market shares, extensive and intensive margins and the dynamics in the number of joint trade links (Dynamic Trade Link Analysis) from 1995 to 2010. According to our findings, the most contested markets are those for capital goods and transport equipment. Overall, competition between CESEE-10 and China intensified as a result of their outstanding competitiveness and the continuous deepening of already existing trade relationships, while cutthroat competition has not materialized. While this suggests that the CESEE countries pursue a suitable export strategy, diversification of production toward promising new industries and markets remains essential, not least because the EU-15 market is projected to grow at a slower pace in the longer run.

我们研究了中国作为全球竞争者对中欧、东欧和东南欧10个欧盟成员国(CESEE-10)在欧盟15国市场上的贸易表现的影响。本文采用综合方法分析了1995 - 2010年出口增长、出口市场份额、粗放型和集约型利润以及联合贸易联系数量的动态变化(动态贸易联系分析)。根据我们的调查结果,竞争最激烈的市场是资本货物和运输设备市场。总体而言,由于其突出的竞争力和现有贸易关系的不断深化,CESEE-10与中国之间的竞争加剧,而残酷的竞争尚未实现。虽然这表明CESEE国家追求合适的出口战略,但面向有前途的新行业和市场的生产多样化仍然至关重要,尤其是因为预计欧盟15国市场的长期增长速度较慢。JEL分类:F14、F15、O57

Prospects and Forecasts for the Development of Polish Capital Market in the Wake of EU Accession 加入欧盟后波兰资本市场发展的展望与展望

The capital market in Poland is a very recent one, as it only dates back to 1991. To assess its development and functioning to date we have to compare it with other capital markets — both the mature ones, which have been operating for many years, as well as with others, which, like the Polish market, have a short history. In doing so we have to take into consideration the division of capital markets based on the principles of their operation that have developed there — such division distinguishes between the Anglo-Saxon and the German-Japanese models of the capital market. We also have to evaluate the prospects for the development of the Polish capital market — particularly in view of the globalisation of the economy and Poland‘s accession to the European Union. Since legal and technological barriers restricting transfer of capital between countries are being removed, capital markets in individual countries, Poland included, no longer form discrete and closed organisms that do not react to economic developments in other countries. The freedom of movement of capital resulting from international agreements, coupled with broad access to information and rapid development of electronics, telecommunications and information technology, have practically removed all obstacles to international movement of capital. In a dozen seconds or so you can transfer millions of dollars from the London Stock Exchange to the stoek markets in Warsaw or Tokyo.Another reason why the Polish capital market can be regarded as a global market is the fact that Poland became an OECD member in 1996, and the EU membership is a matter of near rather than distant future. Apart from benefits, this also entails requirements concerning easier access of foreign capital to the Polish market, but also the possibility of transfer of Polish capital to foreign markets.The models of functioning of the banking industry and the capital market as a whole are now being formed in Poland. The process is similar in both cases and we may expect that it will finally result in an intermediate model, based on both, the Anglo-Saxon and the German-Japanese experiences.
波兰的资本市场是一个很新的市场,因为它只追溯到1991年。为了评估其迄今为止的发展和运作,我们必须将其与其他资本市场进行比较-既包括已经运作多年的成熟资本市场,也包括像波兰市场这样历史较短的其他资本市场。在这样做的过程中,我们必须考虑到资本市场在那里发展起来的运作原则的划分——这种划分区分了盎格鲁-撒克逊模式和德国-日本模式的资本市场。我们还必须评估波兰资本市场发展的前景- -特别是考虑到经济全球化和波兰加入欧洲联盟。由于限制国家间资本转移的法律和技术障碍正在消除,包括波兰在内的个别国家的资本市场不再形成不对其他国家的经济发展作出反应的孤立和封闭的有机体。国际协定带来的资本自由流动,加上信息的广泛获取和电子、电信和信息技术的迅速发展,实际上已经消除了资本国际流动的所有障碍。在十几秒钟左右的时间里,你可以将数百万美元从伦敦证券交易所转移到华沙或东京的股票市场。波兰资本市场可以被视为全球市场的另一个原因是波兰在1996年成为经济合作与发展组织(OECD)成员国,而欧盟成员国是一个近而不是遥远的未来。除了利益之外,这还涉及到外国资本更容易进入波兰市场的要求,以及波兰资本转移到外国市场的可能性。波兰目前正在形成银行业和整个资本市场的运作模式。在这两种情况下,过程是相似的,我们可以预期,它最终会产生一个基于盎格鲁-撒克逊和德日经验的中间模式。

Assessing the global economic outlook is a fundamentally important task of international financial institutions, governments and central banks. In this paper we focus on the consequences of the rapid growth of emerging markets for monitoring and forecasting the global outlook. Our main results are that (i) the rise of the emerging countries has sharply altered the correlation of growth rates among the main economic areas; (ii) this is clearly detectable in forecasting equations as a structural break occurring in the 1990s; (iii) hence, inferences on global developments based solely on the industrialized countries are highly unreliable; (iv) the otherwise cumbersome task of monitoring many i?½ and less studied i?½ countries can be tackled by resorting to very simple bridge models (BM); (v) BM performance is in line with that of the most widely quoted predictions (WEO, Consensus) both before and during the recent crisis; (vi) for some emerging economies, BMs would have provided even better forecasts during the recent crisis.
评估全球经济前景是国际金融机构、各国政府和各国央行的一项重要任务。在本文中,我们将重点讨论新兴市场的快速增长对监测和预测全球前景的影响。我们的主要结果是:(1)新兴国家的崛起急剧改变了主要经济区域之间增长率的相关性;(ii)在预测方程中可以清楚地发现,这是20世纪90年代发生的结构性断裂;因此,仅根据工业化国家对全球发展作出推断是极不可靠的;(iv)监察许多i?1 / 2或更少的研究?一半的国家可以通过非常简单的桥梁模型(BM)来解决;(v)在最近的危机之前和危机期间,国际货币基金组织的表现与最广泛引用的预测(世界经济展望、共识)一致;(六)对于一些新兴经济体来说,在最近的危机中,账面价值可以提供更好的预测。

Short-Run Forecasting of the Euro-Dollar Exchange Rate with Economic Fundamentals 欧元-美元汇率与经济基本面的短期预测
Pub Date : 2012-02-07 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.2000677
Marcos Dal Bianco, Máximo Camacho, Gabriel Pérez-Quirós
We propose a fundamentals-based econometric model for the weekly changes in the euro-dollar rate with the distinctive feature of mixing economic variables quoted at different frequencies. The model obtains good in-sample fit and, more importantly, encouraging out-of-sample forecasting results at horizons ranging from one-week to one month. Specifically, we obtain statistically significant improvements upon the hard-to-beat random-walk model using traditional statistical measures of forecasting error at all horizons. Moreover, our model obtains a great improvement when we use the direction of change metric, which has more economic relevance than other loss measures. With this measure, our model performs much better at all forecasting horizons than a naive model that predicts the exchange rate as an equal chance to go up or down, with statistically significant improvements.
我们提出了一个基于基本面的欧元美元汇率每周变化的计量经济学模型,该模型具有混合不同频率引用的经济变量的鲜明特征。该模型获得了良好的样本内拟合,更重要的是,在一周到一个月的范围内,得到了令人鼓舞的样本外预测结果。具体来说,我们使用传统的预测误差统计方法在所有视界上对难以击败的随机漫步模型进行了统计上的显著改进。此外,当我们使用变化方向度量时,我们的模型得到了很大的改进,该度量比其他损失度量具有更大的经济相关性。有了这个衡量标准,我们的模型在所有预测范围内的表现都比一个天真的模型好得多,后者预测汇率上升或下降的机会均等,在统计上有显著的改进。

Are Long-Term Inflation Expectations Well-Anchored? Evidence from the Euro Area and the United States 长期通胀预期稳定吗?来自欧元区和美国的证据
Pub Date : 2011-03-01 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.1860111

This paper analyses the anchoring, i.e. stability, of long-term inflation expectations, as well as further moments of the distribution, as perceived by the professional forecasters in the euro area and the US. Evaluation is initially performed on the basis of sensitivity to innovations to observed inflation, short- and medium-term individual forecast news. News are defined in a subjective sense and derived from revisions to shorter-term fixed-target forecasts. The assessment tests for presence of non-linear effects, including regime changes during disinflation in the US in the 90s, and the recent financial crisis. Secondly, anchoring is evaluated in terms of level evolution, based on structural non-linear and non-Gaussian learning models, used to uncover the presence of common trend, underlying the long-term dynamics of inflation, individual expectations and uncertainty. The findings suggest relatively well-anchored expectations. As regards sensitivity, point expectations in the euro area are perfectly anchored. Although there is presence of non-stationary common process underlying individual expectations and inflation realisations, most forecasters project the ex-ante long-term considerably below trend inflation, a phenomenon documented and named here collective stabilisation bias. Long-term uncertainty proved unrelated to both level and changes in the inflation process. In the US there is higher sensitivity to the shorter term, which has diminished significantly after 1999, possibly contributing to stationarity in the underlying inflationary process and absence of collective bias. Both currency areas demonstrate remarkable resilience to shocks during the financial markets’ crisis.
本文分析了锚定,即稳定性,长期通胀预期,以及分布的进一步时刻,正如欧元区和美国的专业预测者所感知的。评估最初是根据对观察到的通货膨胀、短期和中期个人预测新闻的创新的敏感性进行的。新闻的定义是主观的,来源于对短期固定目标预测的修正。该评估测试了非线性效应的存在,包括上世纪90年代美国反通胀期间的政权更迭,以及最近的金融危机。其次,基于结构非线性和非高斯学习模型,从水平演化的角度评估锚定,用于揭示共同趋势的存在,隐藏在通胀、个人预期和不确定性的长期动态之下。研究结果表明,预期相对稳定。至于敏感性,欧元区的点预期是完全稳定的。尽管在个人预期和通胀实现的基础上存在非平稳的共同过程,但大多数预测者预测的事前长期通胀远低于趋势通胀,这是一种记录在案的现象,在这里被称为集体稳定偏差。事实证明,长期的不确定性与通货膨胀过程的水平和变化无关。在美国,短期利率的敏感性更高,1999年之后显著降低,这可能有助于基本通胀过程的平稳,也没有集体偏见。在金融市场危机期间,这两个货币区都表现出了非凡的抗冲击能力。

The Confidence Channel for the Transmission of Shocks 冲击传递的信心通道
Pub Date : 2011-01-01 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.1742913
S. Fei
It is widely known that agents confidence is closely linked to macroeconomic cycles. A confidence channel may therefore have a significant impact in accelerating and amplifying the transmission of shocks accross borders. We endeavor to find empirical proof of the existence of a confidence channel between G7 countries (and Spain). This paper centers around the concept of a contagion of confidence from “large countries” to “small countries”. I apply instrumental-variable regressions to OECD standardized Consumers and Business Confidence measures, in order to investigate the relationship between the confidence series of all G7 countries, and Spain. Macroeconomic variables are included in these regressions to control for domestic causes of confidence changes. We find that, even after having controlled for domestic macroeconomic causes of confidence level variations, the level of confidence of agents in large countries does have an influence on the level of confidence of agents in smaller countries.
众所周知,代理人的信心与宏观经济周期密切相关。因此,信任渠道可能对加速和扩大冲击的跨境传导产生重大影响。我们努力寻找G7国家(和西班牙)之间存在信任渠道的经验证据。本文围绕信心从“大国”传染到“小国”的概念展开。我将工具变量回归应用于经合组织标准化的消费者和商业信心措施,以调查所有G7国家和西班牙的信心系列之间的关系。这些回归包括宏观经济变量,以控制信心变化的国内原因。我们发现,即使在控制了国内宏观经济因素对置信水平变化的影响之后,大国代理人的置信水平确实会对小国代理人的置信水平产生影响。

Inflation and Price Adjustments: Evidence from Norwegian Consumer Price Data 1975-2004 通货膨胀和价格调整:1975-2004年挪威消费者价格数据的证据
Pub Date : 2010-11-29 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.1716744
Fredrik Wulfsberg
I document the frequency and size of price adjustments using thirty years of monthly data covering both high- and low-inflation periods. Prices increase more frequently in smaller amounts when inflation is high, and less frequently but in larger amounts when inflation is low. A novel decomposition of the inflation rate shows that when inflation is high and volatile the frequency of price changes is more important for the variation in inflation than is the magnitude of price changes. When inflation is low and stable the magnitude of the price changes is more important. Monetary policy analysis assuming an exogenous probability of changing prices are thus subject to the Lucas critique.
我用30年来包括高通胀和低通胀时期的月度数据来记录价格调整的频率和规模。当通货膨胀率高时,价格以较小的幅度更频繁地上涨;当通货膨胀率低时,价格上涨的频率较低,但幅度较大。一种新的通货膨胀率分解方法表明,当通货膨胀率高且不稳定时,价格变化的频率对通货膨胀的变化比价格变化的幅度更重要。当通货膨胀率低而稳定时,价格变化的幅度更为重要。因此,假设外生价格变动概率的货币政策分析受到卢卡斯批评的影响。

Macroeconometric Evaluation of Active Labour Market Policies in Austria 奥地利积极劳动力市场政策的宏观计量经济学评价

This paper contributes to the literature on macroeconometric evaluation of active labour market policies (ALMP) by considering the regional effects on both the matching process and the job-seeker rate. We use an unique new data set on all Austrian job-seekers between 2001 to 2007 and apply GMM and Quasi-ML estimators to take into account both the simultaneity of ALMP and spatial interrelations between employment office districts. The results indicate that job schemes in the non-profit sector, wage subsidies, and apprenticeships cause particularly favourable effects on the regional matching function and the job-seeker rate.
本文通过考虑区域对匹配过程和求职者率的影响,对积极劳动力市场政策(ALMP)的宏观计量经济学评价做出了贡献。我们使用2001年至2007年间奥地利所有求职者的独特新数据集,并应用GMM和拟ml估计器来考虑ALMP的同时性和就业办公区之间的空间相互关系。结果表明,非营利性就业计划、工资补贴和学徒制对区域匹配函数和求职者率产生了特别有利的影响。
