Half-panel jackknife fixed-effects estimation of linear panels with weakly ex...
This paper considers estimation and inference in linear panel regression models with lagged dependent variables and/or other weakly exogenous regressors when N (the... -
What are the macroeconomic effects of high‐frequency uncertainty shocks? (rep...
This paper evaluates the effects of high-frequency uncertainty shocks on a set of low-frequency macroeconomic variables representative of the US economy. Rather than estimating... -
Exact computation of GMM estimators for instrumental variable quantile regres...
We show that the generalized method of moments (GMM) estimation problem in instrumental variable quantile regression (IVQR) models can be equivalently formulated as a... -
Genetic distance, trade, and the diffusion of development (replication data)
The determinants of countries' long-term income differences feature prominently in the literature. Spolaore and Wacziarg (The diffusion of development, Quarterly Journal of... -
Private debt overhang and the government spending multiplier: Evidence for th...
Using state-dependent local projections and historical US data, we find that government spending multipliers are considerably larger in periods of private debt overhang. In... -
Policy uncertainty and aggregate fluctuations (replication data)
This paper estimates the impact on the US economy of four types of uncertainty about (i) government spending, (ii) tax changes, (iii) public debt, and (iv) monetary policy.... -
Increasing the credibility of the twin birth instrument (replication data)
Twin births are an important instrument for the endogenous fertility decision. However, twin births are not exogenous either as dizygotic twinning is correlated with maternal... -
A generalized focused information criterion for GMM (replication data)
This paper proposes a criterion for simultaneous generalized method of moments model and moment selection: the generalized focused information criterion (GFIC). Rather than... -
Realized extreme quantile: A joint model for conditional quantiles and measur...
We propose a new framework exploiting realized measures of volatility to estimate and forecast extreme quantiles. Our realized extreme quantile (REQ) combines quantile...
