提出一个分段随机趋势模型,检验美元汇率是否遵循随机游走,发现长期波动模式存在且预测优于随机游走,同时否定了无抛补利率平价。

Abstract

The value of the dollar appears to move in one direction for long periods of time. The authors develop a new statistical model of exchange rate dynamics as a sequence of stochastic, segmented time trends. They reject the null hypothesis that exchange rates follow a random walk in favor of their model of long swings. The authors' model also generates better forecasts than a random walk. The specification is a natural framework for assessing the importance of the "peso problem" for the dollar. The authors nonetheless reject uncovered interest parity.
