We study the performance of several short-term trend estimators for current economic analysis. These estimators are available in X11-ARIMA, X12-ARIMA, TRAMO-SEATS and STAMP. We also include two other trend-cycle estimators obtained by post-processing seasonally adjusted data with X11ARIMA, namely, a modified Henderson nonlinear filter by Dagum (1996) DMH, and a new modified version of it, DMH-D. The estimators are applied to a number of simulated non-seasonal data of various levels of variability. |
