Policy Uncertainty, Tariff Rate, Monetary Policy And Income Inequality: An Asymmetric Analysis, Mehrnoosh Hasanzade
Policy Uncertainty, Tariff Rate, Monetary Policy And Income Inequality: An Asymmetric Analysis, Mehrnoosh Hasanzade
Theses and Dissertations
This study offers a contribution to the income inequality literature within the traditional Kuznets model and explores the relationship between income inequality and a set of macroeconomic variables such as policy uncertainty, tariff rate, and monetary policy. By implementing a Nonlinear Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model, I aim to identify the possible nonlinear effects of policy uncertainty, tariff rate -as a measure of trade openness-, and monetary policy on income inequality in United States and its 50 states and District of Columbia. The advantage of choosing this methodology is that it helps researchers to explain both long run relationships and …
Nonlinear Ardl Approach And The Housing Market In The U.S., Seyed Hesam Ghodsi
Nonlinear Ardl Approach And The Housing Market In The U.S., Seyed Hesam Ghodsi
Theses and Dissertations
This study investigates the existence of linear cointegration, nonlinear cointegration or no cointegration between house prices and fundamentals in the U.S. states over the period of 1975Q1-2014Q3. I employ Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model by Pesaran et al. (2001) to test for linear cointegration and Nonlinear Autoregressive Distributed Lag (NARDL) model by Shin et al. (2014) to test for nonlinear cointegration between house prices and fundamentals. Decomposing fundamentals into positive and negative components in the nonlinear ARDL model allows me to study the nature of impacts of income and/or mortgage rates on house prices. By using these methods (ARDL and …
Do Exchange Rate Changes Have Symmetric Or Asymmetric Effects On Stock Prices?, Sujata Saha
Do Exchange Rate Changes Have Symmetric Or Asymmetric Effects On Stock Prices?, Sujata Saha
Theses and Dissertations
This study employs the bounds testing approach to cointegration to examine the short run and long run dynamics between stock prices and exchange rates, accounting for few other macroeconomic variables such as Consumer Price Index, Industrial Production Index, nominal money supply (M2) which are known to have effects on stock prices as well. The main contribution of this paper which is absent in the literature is that the change in nominal effective exchange rate is decomposed into partial sum of positive changes and negative changes to determine whether the changes in exchange rates have symmetric or asymmetric effects on stock …
