title: State-Dependent or Time-Dependent Pricing: Does It Matter for Recent U.S. Inflation?
Creators: name: Klenow, Peter J.
name: Kryvtsov, Oleksiy
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2005

description: Inflation equals the product of two terms: an extensive margin (the fraction of items with price changes) and an intensive margin (the average size of those changes). The variance of inflation over time can be decomposed into contributions from each margin. The extensive margin figures importantly in many state-dependent pricing models, whereas the intensive margin is the sole source of inflation changes in staggered time-dependent pricing models. We use micro data collected by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics to decompose the variance of consumer price inflation from 1988 through 2003. We find that around 95% of the variance of monthly inflation stems from fluctuations in the average size of price changes, i.e., the intensive margin. When we calibrate a prominent state-dependent pricing model to match this empirical variance decomposition, the model's shock responses are very close to those in time-dependent pricing models.
description: L'inflation est égale au produit d'une marge extensive, correspondant àà la proportion d'articles dont le prix est rajusté, par une marge intensive, qui reflète la valeur moyenne des rajustements observés. La variance de l'inflation au fil du temps peut se décomposer en ces deux éléments. La marge extensive joue un rôle important dans de nombreux modèles d'établissement des prix qui dépendent de l'état de la nature, alors que la marge intensive est la seule source de variation de l'inflation dans les modèles probabilistes intégrant des contrats échelonnés de prix. Les auteurs utilisent les microdonnées que le Bureau of Labor Statistics des états-Unis recueillent sur les prix àà la consommation pour décomposer la variance mensuelle de l'inflation entre 1988 et 2003. Ils constatent que celle-ci est déterminée àà environ 95 % par les fluctuations de l'amplitude moyenne des variations de prix (la marge intensive). Lorsque les paramètres d'un modèle bien connu qui dépend de l'état de la nature sont calés sur cette décomposition de la variance empirique, les profils de réaction obtenus sont très voisins de ceux que l'on observe dans les modèles probabilistes àà contrats échelonnés de prix.

description: Echelle spectrophotometry of the planetary nebula NGC 5307 is presented. The data consists of VLT UVES observations in the 3100 to 10360 A range. Electron temperatures and densities have been determined using different line intensity ratios. We determine the H, He, C, and O abundances based on recombination lines, these abundances are almost independent of the temperature structure of the nebula. We also determine the N, O, Ne, S, Cl, and Ar abundances based on collisionally excited lines, the ratios of these abundances relative to that of H depend strongly on the temperature structure of the nebula. From the OII/[OIII] ratio we find a t^2 = 0.056+-0.005. The chemical composition of NGC 5307 is compared with those of the Sun and the Orion nebula. From the study of the relative intensities of the OII recombination lines of multiplet 1 in this and other nebulae it isfound that for electron densities smaller than about 5000 cm-3 collisional redistribution is not complete, this effect has to be taken into account to derive the O abundances for those cases in which not all the lines of the multiplet are observed. From the 4649 OII versus N_e$(ClIII) diagram we find a critical electron density of 1325 cm-3 for collisional redistribution of the OII lines of multiplet 1. Also based on this diagram we argue that the OII and the [OIII] lines originate in the same regions. We also find that the radial velocities and the FWHM of the OII and [OIII] lines in NGC 5307 are similar supporting the previous result. These two results imply that for NGC 5307 and probably for many other gaseous nebulae chemical inhomogeneities are not responsible for the large temperature fluctuations observed.

title: Subordinated Debt and Market Discipline in Canada
Creators: name: Caldwell, Greg
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2005

description: The author documents the use by Canadian banks of subordinated debt (SD) as a capital instrument. He reviews the economic benefits of this asset as a mechanism for market discipline and highlights academic and policy research over the past 20 years. The author provides both qualitative and quantitative summaries of the current regulatory and market environment in Canada, and conducts a Tobit analysis of factors that affect a bank's decision to issue SD. He also constructs a cross-section time-series sample of banks, into which controls for fixed effects, along with other non-default risk factors, are incorporated. Results for domestic banks show that, whenever there exists a high degree of gross impaired non-mortgage loans and mortgage writeoffs relative to assets, banks are less likely to issue SD. In contrast, increases in past-due (but still unimpaired) non-mortgage loans have a positive effect on SD issuance. This suggests that domestic banks 'time' their issuance decisions to avoid market discipline.
description: L'auteur se penche sur le recours des banques canadiennes à l'émission de titres de dette subordonnée. Il examine les avantages économiques de cet actif comme outil de discipline de marché, et met en relief les travaux réalisés par des universitaires et des banques centrales depuis 20 ans. Il brosse un panorama qualitatif et quantitatif du cadre réglementaire et des conditions de marché actuels au Canada. L'auteur effectue une analyse Tobit des facteurs qui influencent la décision d'une banque d'émettre des titres de dette subordonnée. Il constitue pour cela un échantillon longitudinal composé de banques et intègre à son modèle des effets fixes ainsi que des facteurs non liés au risque de défaillance. D'après les résultats qu'il obtient, les banques canadiennes sont moins enclines à émettre des titres de dette subordonnée lorsque l'encours de leurs prêts douteux bruts non hypothécaires et le montant des radiations d'effets hypothécaires sont élevés comparativement aux actifs. En revanche, un accroissement du montant des prêts non hypothécaires en souffrance mais qui ne sont pas encore jugés douteux s'accompagne d'une hausse des émissions. Cela donne à penser que les banques canadiennes choisissent le moment de leurs émissions de manière à échapper à la discipline de marché.
title: Modelling and Forecasting Housing Investment: The Case of Canada
Creators: name: Demers, Frédérick
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2005

description: The author proposes and evaluates econometric models that try to explain and forecast real quarterly housing expenditures in Canada. Structural and leading-indicator models of the Canadian housing sector are described. The long-run relationship between expenditure and its determinants is shown to have shifted during the late 1970s, which implies that important changes have occurred in how the housing market is driven. The author finds that the response of housing investment to interest rates has become more pronounced over time. He compares out-of-sample forecasts from linear and non-linear cointegration models (which make use of information on fundamentals such as wealth and demographics) with forecasts from simple leading-indicator models (which exploit information such as housing starts or household indebtedness). The author finds that simple leading-indicator models can provide relatively accurate near-term forecasts. The preferred structural model, which allows for a shift in the cointegrating vector, provides a rich analysis of the housing sector, with good forecast accuracy on the construction side but not on the resale side, which is more difficult to predict.
description: L'auteur propose et évalue divers modèles économétriques — soit un modèle structurel et des modèles indicateurs du marché canadien du logement — pouvant servir à expliquer et à prévoir l'évolution trimestrielle des dépenses réelles en logement au pays. Il montre que la relation de long terme existant entre les dépenses dans ce secteur et leurs déterminants s'est modifiée vers la fin des années 1970, des changements importants étant survenus dans la façon dont les forces en jeu influent sur le marché. Il note par exemple que les investissements dans le logement sont devenus plus sensibles aux taux d'intérêt avec le temps. L'auteur compare les prévisions hors échantillon établies à l'aide de modèles de cointégration linéaires et non linéaires (qui englobent des variables fondamentales telles que la richesse et l'évolution démographique) à celles issues de modèles indicateurs simples (qui font intervenir des variables comme les mises en chantier et l'endettement des ménages). Il constate que des modèles indicateurs simples peuvent produire des prévisions à court terme relativement précises. Le modèle structurel présenté, qui admet l'existence d'une rupture dans les paramètres du vecteur de cointégration, livre une riche analyse du secteur du logement. Il fournit de bonnes prévisions pour le marché du neuf, mais pas pour celui de la revente, dont l'évolution est plus difficile à prédire.

description: Cluster expansions for the exponential of local operators are constructed using tensor networks. In contrast to other approaches, the cluster expansion does not break any spatial or internal symmetries and exhibits a very favourable prefactor to the error scaling versus bond dimension. This is illustrated by time evolving a matrix product state using very large time steps, and by constructing a novel robust algorithm for finding ground states of 2-dimensional Hamiltonians using projected entangled pair states as fixed points of 2-dimensional transfer matrices.

description: We analyze the energy spectrum of the three-site Bose-Hubbard model. It is shown that this spectrum is a mixture of the regular and irregular spectra associated with the regular and chaotic components of the classical Bose-Hubbard model. We find relative volumes of these components by using the pseudoclassical approach. Substituting these values in the Berry-Robnik distribution for the level spacing statistics we obtain good agreement with the numerical data.

description: Legitimisation strategies of post-Communist regimes are interlinked with practices of addressing their non-democratic past. Specific state-mandated institutes emerged in post-Communist countries to create an institutionalised historical memory of the Communist dictatorship. The institutional model of a historical memory institute is characterised by organisational hierarchies, layered institutional practices, and bureaucratic features. This model was implemented in most countries, including Albania. However, the Institute for the Study of the Crimes and Consequences of Communism (‘The Institute’) in Albania exhibits a different practice of historical reconstruction. The main questions asked by this article are: What has conditioned the distinct approach the Albanian Institute had adopted in its reconstruction of the past? And how can the institutionalisation of a particular social memory in a state-mandated institution be explained? The research is based on ethnographic fieldwork at the Institute. To understand the specific practice of historical reconstruction, the data collected includes semi-structured interviews with leading heads of the Institute, and collected testimonies. Discourse analysis is used to interpret the data.

description: Motivated by repeated price spikes and crashes over the last decade, we investigate whether the growing market shares of futures speculators destabilize commodity spot prices. We approximate conditional volatility and analyze how it is affected by speculative open interest. In this context, we split our sample into two equally long subperiods and document whether the speculative impact on conditional volatility increases. With respect to six heavily traded agricultural and energy commodities, we do not find robust evidence that this is the case.We thus conclude that the financialization of raw material markets does not make them more volatile.

description: We show that under certain circumstances the differences between the absorption mean and Planck mean opacities can lead to multiple solutions for an LTE atmospheric structure. Since the absorption and Planck mean opacities are not expected to differ significantly in the usual case of radiative equilibrium, non-irradiated atmospheres, the most interesting situations where the effect may play a role are strongly irradiated stars and planets, and also possibly structures where there is a significant deposition of mechanical energy, such as stellar chromospheres and accretion disks. We have presented an illustrative example of a strongly irradiated giant planet where the bifurcation effect is predicted to occur for a certain range of distances from the star.

description: We study the equilibrium properties of a lattice-gas model of an $A + B \to 0$ catalytic reaction on a one-dimensional chain in contact with a reservoir for the particles. The particles of species $A$ and $B$ are in thermal contact with their vapor phases acting as reservoirs, i.e., they may adsorb onto empty lattice sites and may desorb from the lattice. If adsorbed $A$ and $B$ particles appear at neighboring lattice sites they instantaneously react and both desorb. For this model of a catalytic reaction in the adsorption-controlled limit, we derive analytically the expression of the pressure and present exact results for the mean densities of particles and for the compressibilities of the adsorbate as function of the chemical potentials of the two species.

description: The escape probability out of the superconducting state of a hysteretic DC-SQUID has been measured at different values of the applied magnetic flux. At low temperature, the escape current and the width of the probability distribution are temperature independent but they depend on flux. Experimental results do not fit the usual one-dimensional (1D) Macroscopic Quantum Tunneling (MQT) law but are perfectly accounted for by the two-dimensional (2D) MQT behaviour as we propose here. Near zero flux, our data confirms the recent MQT observation in a DC-SQUID \cite{Li02}.

description: We present HST/NICMOS images at 0.2" resolution of the HI Paschen Alpha (PaA) emission line in a 70" x 90" region of the Galactic center centered on the non-thermal radio source Sgr A*. The majority of the emission arises from ionized gas in the mini-spiral in the central parsec. PaA emission is also seen from 26 stellar sources, presumably early-type stars with mass-loss winds. The new data reveal significant small-scale structure (<1"~0.04pc) in the ionized gas of the mini-spiral; low surface brightness emission features are also seen for the first time. Extinction, estimated from the ratio of observed PaA emission to 6-cm continuum emission, varies from 20 to 50 mag with a median Av=31.1 mag, in excellent agreement with earlier estimates for the stellar sources and indepedent measurements derived using H92alpha recombination line data. Large increases in extinction are seen along the periphery of the ionized gas, suggesting that the ionized gas is partially extincted by dust in the molecular clouds at the outside of the ionized regions. The small-scale, filamentary structures in the ionized gas have a free thermal expansion time of only ~ 3000 yrs; either magnetic fields or mass-loss winds from the hot emission line stars may contain the ionized filaments. For both the ionized gas and the stellar continuum, the centroids of the emission remain within ~+/- 1" from a radius of 2" out to 40", providing further evidence that Sgr A* is indeed at or extremely close to the dynamical center of the Galactic nucleus stellar distribution. The 1.9 micron surface brightness increases inwards to 0.9" and then decreases or levels off closer to Sgr A*, possibly indicating the core radius of the central stellar distribution or depletion of the late-type stars by stellar collisions near the central black hole.

Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2005

description: Most financial markets allow investors to submit both limit and market orders, but it is not always clear what affects the choice of order type. The authors empirically investigate how the time between order submissions, changes in the state of the order book, and price uncertainty influence the rate of submission of limit and market orders. The authors measure the expected time (duration) between the submissions of orders of each type using an asymmetric autoregressive conditional duration model. They find that the execution of market orders, as well as changes in the level of price uncertainty and market depth, impact the submissions of both best limit orders and market orders. After correcting for these factors, the authors also find differences in behaviour around market openings, closings, and unexpected events that may be related to changes in information flows at these times. In general, traders use more market (limit) orders at times when execution risk for limit orders is highest or the risk of unexpected price movements is highest.
description: Sur la plupart des marchés financiers, les investisseurs peuvent placer aussi bien des ordres à cours limité que des ordres au mieux, mais les raisons de leur choix ne sont pas toujours claires. Les auteurs cherchent à établir empiriquement comment la durée séparant les ordres passés, l'état du carnet d'ordres et l'incertitude des prix influent sur le rythme auquel se succèdent les ordres à cours limité et les ordres au mieux. Ils ont recours à un modèle de durée conditionnelle autorégressive asymétrique pour mesurer le laps de temps susceptible de s'écouler entre les ordres de chaque type. Ils constatent que le nombre d'ordres au mieux exécutés, tout comme les variations du degré d'incertitude des prix et de profondeur du marché, a une incidence sur les flux des deux types d'ordres. Une fois ces facteurs pris en compte, les auteurs observent aussi des différences de comportement en début et en fin de séance, ainsi qu'en présence d'événements inattendus qui sont peut-être liés à l'arrivée d'informations sur le marché. En règle générale, les opérateurs font davantage appel à l'ordre au mieux quand le risque d'exécution des ordres à cours limité est élevé et à l'ordre à cours limité quand le risque de variations de prix inattendues est grand.

description: We present ten years of new photometric monitoring of the light variability of five evolved stars with strong mid-infrared emission from surrounding dust. Three are known carbon-rich proto-planetary nebulae (PPNe) with F$-$G spectral types; the nature of the other two was previously unknown. For the three PPNe, we determine or refine the pulsation periods of IRAS 04296+3429 (71 days), 06530$-$0213 (80 days), and 23304+6147 (84 days). A secondary period was found for each, with a period ratio P$_2$/P$_1$ of 0.9. The light variations are small, 0.1-0.2 mag. These are similar to values found in other PPNe. The other two are found to be giant stars. IRAS 09296+1159 pulsates with a period of only 47 days but reaches pulsational light variations of 0.5 mag. Supplemental spectroscopy reveals the spectrum of a CH carbon star. IRAS 08359$-$1644 is a G1III star that does not display pulsational variability; rather, it shows non-periodic decreases of brightness of up to 0.5 mag over this ten-year interval. These drops in brightness are reminiscent of the light curves of R Corona Borealis variables, but with much smaller decreases in brightness, and are likely due to transient dust obscuration. Its SED is very similar to that of the unusual oxygen-rich giant star HDE 233517, which possesses mid-infrared hydrocarbon emission features. These two non-PPNe turn out to members of the rare group of giant stars with large mid-infrared excesses due to dust, objects which presumably have interesting evolutionary histories.

description: We investigate electronic transport properties of the squashed armchair carbon nanotubes, using tight-binding molecular dynamics and Green's function method. We demonstrate a metal-to-semiconductor transistion while squashing the nanotubes and a general mechanism for such transistion. It is the distinction of the two sublattices in the nanotube that opens an energy gap near the Fermi energy. We show that the transition has to be achieved by a combined effect of breaking of mirror symmetry and bond formation between the flattened faces in the squashed nanotubes.

title: Forecasting Core Inflation in Canada: Should We Forecast the Aggregate or the Components?
Creators: name: Demers, Frédérick
name: De Champlain, Annie
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2005

description: The authors investigate the behaviour of core inflation in Canada to analyze three key issues: (i) homogeneity in the response of various price indexes to demand or real exchange rate shocks relative to the response of aggregate core inflation; (ii) whether using disaggregate data helps to improve the forecast of core inflation; and (iii) whether using monthly data helps to improve quarterly forecasts. The authors show that the response of inflation to output-gap or real exchange rate shocks varies considerably across the components, although the average response remains low; they also show that the average response has decreased over time. To forecast monthly inflation, the use of disaggregate data is a significant improvement over the use of aggregate data. However, the improvements in forecasts of quarterly rates of inflation are only minor. Overall, it remains difficult to properly model and forecast monthly core inflation in Canada.
description: Les auteurs étudient le comportement de l'inflation fondamentale au Canada en visant un triple objectif : i) examiner l'homogénéité de la réaction de divers indices de prix aux chocs de demande ou de taux de change réel par rapport à la réaction de l'inflation fondamentale agrégée; ii) déterminer si l'utilisation de données désagrégées permet de mieux prévoir l'inflation fondamentale; iii) déterminer si l'emploi de données mensuelles améliore les prévisions trimestrielles. Les auteurs montrent que la réaction de l'inflation aux fluctuations de l'écart de production ou du taux de change réel varie beaucoup d'une composante à l'autre, même si elle demeure faible en moyenne. Ils montrent également que l'ampleur de la réaction moyenne a diminué au fil du temps. Les données désagrégées s'avèrent beaucoup plus utiles que les données agrégées pour anticiper l'inflation mensuelle, mais ne procurent que des avantages limités pour ce qui est des prévisions trimestrielles. Globalement, l'évolution mensuelle de l'inflation fondamentale au Canada demeure difficile à modéliser et à prévoir correctement.

title: An Evaluation of MLE in a Model of the Nonlinear Continuous-Time Short-Term Interest Rate
Creators: name: Lo, Ingrid
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2005

description: The author compares the performance of three Gaussian approximation methods—by Nowman (1997), Shoji and Ozaki (1998), and Yu and Phillips (2001)—in estimating a model of the nonlinear continuous-time short-term interest rate. She finds that the performance of Nowman's method is similar to that of Shoji and Ozaki's method, whereas the window width used in the Yu and Phillips method has a critical influence on parameter estimates. When a small window width is used, the Yu and Phillips method does not outperform the other two methods. Choosing a suitable window width can reduce estimation bias quite significantly, whereas too large a window width can worsen estimation bias and the fit of the model. An empirical study is implemented using Canadian and U.K. one-month interest rate data.
description: L'auteure compare l'efficacité de trois méthodes d'approximation gaussienne — proposées par Nowman (1997), Shoji et Ozaki (1998) et Yu et Phillips (2001) — pour l'estimation d'un modèle en temps continu non linéaire du taux d'intérêt à court terme. Elle constate que la méthode de Nowman est aussi efficace que celle de Shoji et Ozaki, mais que la largeur de la fenêtre retenue dans le cas de la méthode de Yu et Phillips a un effet déterminant sur la valeur estimée des paramètres. Lorsque la fenêtre utilisée est trop étroite, la méthode de Yu et Phillips n'est pas supérieure aux deux autres. Le choix d'une fenêtre de largeur appropriée peut réduire le biais d'estimation de façon importante, alors que celui d'une fenêtre trop large peut entraîner une détérioration de l'ajustement statistique du modèle et accentuer le biais d'estimation. L'analyse empirique de l'auteure met à contribution les données relatives aux taux d'intérêt à un mois canadien et britannique.

description: We propose a single shot quantum measurement to determine the state of a Josephson charge quantum bit (qubit). The qubit is a Cooper pair box (CPB) and the measuring device is a two junction superconducting quantum interference device (dc-SQUID). This coupled system exhibits a close analogy with a Rydberg atom in a high Q cavity, except that in the present device we benefit from the additional feature of escape from the supercurrent state by macroscopic quantum tunneling, which provides the final read-out. We test the feasibility of our idea against realistic experimental circuit parameters and by analyzing the phase fluctuations of the qubit.

description: In a consumer driven world consumers want to experience a connection between the product that they are consuming and the origin of that product. To guarantee the validity of this connection and therefore the product’s origin attribute, traceability systems are required. The question is therefore whether food supply chains do incorporate strong traceability systems to guarantee the origin of a product. The paper draws on analysis of South African meat supply chains as well as some secondary evidence from Namibia.

description: Psalidognathus pubescens Quentin and Villiers, 1983
(Fig. 18, 19)
 Psalidognathus erythrocerus pubescens Quentin and Villiers, 1983: 443; Monné and Giesbert 1994: 16 (checklist); Monné 1995: 58 (cat.); Monné and Hovore 2005: 21 (checklist); 2006: 20 (checklist); Monné 2006: 88 (cat.).
 Remarks. Psalidognathus pubescens (Fig. 18, 19) is also a species distinct from P. erythrocerus. The original description, associated with the type’s photographs, suggests that the species is much more similar to P. reichei than it is to P. erythrocerus. According to Quentin and Villiers (1983) the males differ from those of P. reichei: head and pronotum more pubescent; teeth of lateral margins of prothorax short and obtuse; elytra very weakly punctate towards apex; the females differ in that antennomere III is 1.5 times the length of scape. In P. reichei males, the head and pronotum are distinctly less pubescent, the teeth of the lateral margins of the prothorax are more acute, and the elytral punctation is coarser and more distinct on apical half; in females antennomere III is more than 1.5 times the length of scape. Other characters that differentiate males of the two species, which were not mentioned by Quentin and Villiers (1983), are the length and the shape of the scape and of antennomere III, and the shape of the cephalic carinae. The photographs of the types show that in males of P. pubescens (Fig. 18) the scape is shorter than in males of P. reichei (Fig. 14), and antennomere III is thicker. Likewise, in P. pubescens the cephalic carinae are closer to each other, mainly at the apex, than they are in P. reichei. It is important to note that, despite what Quentin and Villiers (1983) affirmed regarding the shape of the teeth of the lateral margins of the prothorax (short and obtuse), one of the male paratypes has the teeth as sharp as those in P. reichei.
 Jeniš (2010: 21, 94, 95) figured P. pubescens as species distinct from P. erythrocerus, without formalization. However, the figured male (p. 21, 94) does not agree with the photographs of the holotype and male paratypes. The male figured by Jeniš (2010) shows: scape and antennomere III longer and finer; sculpture on apical half of the elytra distinctly weaker than on base; protibiae finer and longer. Likewise, the scape in the females figured (p. 21, 95) is longer and finer than in the female paratypes. Thus, we believe that none of the three specimens figured in Jeniš (2010) under this name correspond to P. pubescens: they are P. reichei.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

title: Y a-t-il eu surinvestissement au Canada durant la seconde moitié des années 1990?
Creators: name: Martel, Sylvain
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2005

description: Cette étude sur le surinvestissement se démarque des publications existantes par l'approche structurelle qu'elle utilise. Pour modéliser l'investissement en machines et matériel, nous avons employé un VAR structurel que nous avons identifié en imposant des restrictions de long terme, comme l'ont fait Blanchard et Quah (1989). Les composantes transitoires générées par le modèle indiquent un surinvestissement marginal de moins de 5 % en machines et matériel en 2000, en dépit d'une forte surévaluation du marché boursier.
description: This study on overinvestment differs from the existing literature in that investment in machinery and equipment is modelled as a structural vector autoregression with identification achieved by imposing long-run restrictions, as in Blanchard and Quah (1989). The transitory components obtained from the model suggest the existence of a minor overinvestment in machinery and equipment of less than 5 per cent in 2000, despite a significant overevaluation of the stock market.
