 In the empirical application, in which we evaluate forecast densities of US inflation, the HS-BQR provides well calibrated forecast densities whose individual quantiles, have the highest pseudo R squared, highlighting its potential for Value-at-Risk estimation .
<meaning-changed>  In the empirical application, in which we evaluate forecast densities of US inflation, the HS-BQR provides well calibrated forecast densities whose individual quantiles, have the highest pseudo R squared, highlighting its potential for Value-at-Risk estimation .
 In the empirical application, in which we evaluate forecast densities of US inflation, the HS-BQR provides the best performance, especially at short and medium run horizons. The ability to produce well calibrated density forecasts and accurate downside risk measures in large data contexts makes the HS-BQR a promising tool for nowcasting applications and recession modelling .
