Description

This session contains papers in two broad areas of econometric research. The first area involves generalized method of moments (gmm) estimation, and the second involves structural stability testing in linear models. The three papers on gmm consider the issues of: (i)efficiency and moment selection; (ii) identification; (iii) the impact on the gmm estimator of filtering the data with the Hodrick Prescott filter. The two papers on structural stability consider: (i) testing for unit roots in the prescence of structural instability in the deterministic trend; (ii) the finite sample properties of various method of estimating the number of break points.
