Abstract: | The authors develop methods for constructing asymptotically valid confidence intervals for tha data of a singel berak in multivariate time series, including I(0), I(1), and deterministically trending regressors- Although the width of the asymptotic confidence interval does not decrease as the sample size increases, it is inversely related to the number of series which have a common reak date, so there are substantial gains to multivariate inference about break dates. These methods are applied to two empirical examples: the mean growth rate of output in three European countries, and the mean growth rate of U.S. consumption, investment, and output. |
