| Tiivistelmä: | This paper illustrates measuring the UK business cycle (detrending) by extracting the component of aggregate output which has which most closely match those from business-cycle models. A member of a parametric family of detrending filters (which includes linear detrending and first differencing as special cases) is selected by the generalized method of moments. Illustrations use moments from (i) a fully calibrated , real business cycle model and (ii) business-cycle indicators. Measured cycles are compared to those resulting from HP filtering and to the CSO's reference cycle. |
