Optimizing Robust Conditional Moment Tests: An Estimating Function Approach,mality without sacrificing robustness in estimating and testing partial specifications. We illustrate our method using various partial specifications and demonstrate the improved power property of the optimized tests by simulations.

A Survey of Recent Advances in Forecast Accuracy Comparison Testing, with an Extension to Stochastischemes, drawing on Corradi and Swanson (Int Econ Rev 48:67–109, 2007a). We then review recent extensions to the evaluation of multiple confidence intervals and predictive densities, for both the case of a known conditional distribution Corradi and Swanson (J Econ 135:187–228, 2006a; Handbook of eco

Our results suggest that these new GIMTs are important tools for detecting and assessing model misspecification, and

Predictability and Specification in Models of Exchange Rate Determination,ts suggest significant differences between the observed densities and their in- and out- of sample forecasts and fitted values. Much like the Diebold-Mariano approach, we are able to report statistical significance of the differences with our more general measures of forecast performance.

Our empirical results show that the NoVaS -based forecasts lead to a much ‘tighter’ distribution of the forecasting performance measure. Perhaps our most remarkable finding is the . of the NoVaS forecasts in the co
