''Is There a Brazilian J-Curve?''
( 2005, Vol. 6 No.10 )
 
 
We show that Marshall-Lerner condition holds for Brazilian trade balance, and discard a J-curve in the short run. We present these results using impulse-response functions in a variety of (linear and nonlinear) models, including Markov-switching, vector error-correction models.
