Testing against nonstationary volatility in time series

Author

Listed:
  • Xu, Ke-Li

Abstract

The CUSUMSQ test of homoskedasticity is shown in the autoregression model to be consistent against a broad range of nonstationary volatility specification recently studied in the literature. The limit distribution is derived, and numerical examples are presented to illustrate the theoretical results obtained.
