“…For X t to be I (1) both y t and q t must be I (1). By equation (1b), it is clear that q t is φ-NED on the α-mixing sequence ε qt and therefore it is I (0).…”
This paper explores single-equation nonlinear error correction (NEC) models with linear and nonlinear cointegrated variables. Within the class of semiparametric NEC models, we use smoothing splines. Within the class of parametric models, we discuss the interesting properties of cubic polynomial NEC models and we show how they can be used to identify unknown threshold points in asymmetric models and to check the stability properties of the long-run equilibrium. A new class of rational polynomial NEC models is also introduced. We found multiple long-run money demand equilibria. The stability observed in the money-demand parameter estimates during more than a century, 1878 to 2000, is remarkable.

“…Monetarist economists notably believe that there is a negative relationship between prices and output: hence low and zero inflation is an essential, or at least a very important, condition for high and sustained growth (see, for example, Friedman and Schwarz, 1982). On the basis of a cross-country analysis, Stanner (1993), however, concludes that there is no empirical evidence for this belief.…”

Every so often, it seems, humankind almost en masse has a compulsion to speculate, and it yields to that compulsion with abandon, -Robert T. I'atterson, The Great Boom and Panic, p xiii.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
