This is the most sophisticated and up-to-date econometric analysis of business cycles now available. Francis Diebold and Glenn Rudebusch have long been acknowledged as leading experts on business cycles. And here they present a highly integrative collection of their most important essays on the subject, along with a detailed introduction that draws together the book's principal themes and findings.
Diebold and Rudebusch use the latest quantitative methods to address five principal questions about the measurement, modeling, and forecasting of business cycles. They ask whether...

This book uses the methods of statistical time-series analysis to characterize the stochastic structure of seven major dollar spot exchange rates, at both weekly and monthly frequencies, during the recent floating-rate regime 1973-1985. While the conditional-mean behaviour of each exchange rate is close to a random walk, the conditional variances are found to have strongly time-varying volatility. Models of autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (ARCH) are estimated and used to explain unconditional exchange-rate leptokurtosis (as well as convergence to normality under temporal...

Connections among different assets, asset classes, portfolios, and the stocks of individual institutions are critical in examining financial markets. Interest in financial markets implies interest in underlying macroeconomic fundamentals. In Financial and Macroeconomic Connectedness, Frank Diebold and Kamil Yilmaz propose a simple framework for defining, measuring, and monitoring connectedness, which is central to finance and macroeconomics. These measures of connectedness are theoretically rigorous yet empirically relevant. The approach to connectedness proposed by the authors...
