This paper explains the contradictory findings from long-run and short-run tests of the rational expectations hypothesis of the term structure. Recent research suggests that, while the long-run tests support the theory, the short-run tests do not. Our results which are based on US Treasury bills rat
In this paper, we extend results from the finance literature that explores small sample bias, due to persistent variables, in tests of present value asset pricing models. Using a Monte Carlo simulation approach, we investigate the finite sample behaviour of standard tests of the expectations hypothe
This paper demonstrates, by means of Monte Carlo experimentation, that tests of the expectations hypothesis of the term structure based on instrumental variables regressions of the change in the short rate on the relevant lagged yield spread are prone to severe over-rejection when the term premium i
