''A complementary test for the KPSS test with an application to the US Dollar/Euro exchange rate'' |
( 2004, Vol. 3 No.4 ) |
|
|
This paper shows by simulation experiments some failures of the KPSS test when the source of the nonstationarity is explained by an unconditional volatility shift. So, a complementary test is proposed. An application to the US Dollar/Euro exchange rate reveals an instability in the unconditional volatility. |
