This paper develops a set of approximate band-pass filters designed for use in a wide range
of economic applications. In particular, we design and implement a specific band-pass filter
which isolates business-cycle fluctuations in macroeconomic time series. This filter was ...

This paper studies four classic fiscal-policy experiments within a quantitatively restricted
neoclassical model. Our main findings are as follows:(i) permanent changes in government
purchases can lead to short-run and long-run output multipliers that exceed 1;(ii) ...

National saving and investment rates are highly positively correlated in virtually all countries.
This is puzzling, as it apparently implies a low degree of international capital mobility. This
paper shows that the observed positive correlation between national saving and ...

Although international financial markets are highly integrated across the more well-

find evidence of a relationship, with the strongest link at trend and business-cycle ...

insufficient to explain the volatility in the growth rate of output, and explores the empirical
plausibility of the hypothesis that this fact is due to the presence of productive externalities ...

Can the presence of nontraded consumption goods or nontraded factors of production
explain the high degree of “home bias” displayed by investor portfolios? We find that the
answer is no, so long as individuals have access to free international trade in financial ...

growth is excessively sensitive to predictable changes in income. This finding is interpreted
as strong evidence against the PIH. We propose an explanation for apparent excess ...
