Large Shocks, Small Shocks, and Economic Fluctuations: Outliers in Macroeconomic Time Series Author info | Abstract | Publisher info | Download info | Related research | Statistics Balke, Nathan S
Fomby, Thomas B
Additional information is available for the following
registered author(s):
We analyse fifteen post-World War II US macroeconomic time series using a modified outlier identification procedure based on Tsay (1988a). "Large shocks" appear to be present in all the series we examined. Furthermore, there are three basic outlier patterns: (1) outliers seem to be associated with business cycles, (2) outliers are clustered together--both over time and across series, (3) there appears to be a dichotomy between outlier behaviour of real versus nominal series. Also, after controlling for outliers, much of the evidence of non-linearity in many of the time series is eliminated. Copyright 1994 by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
