Business Cycles, Indicators, and Forecasting (Volume 28)

by James H. Stock (Editor), Mark W. Watson

The inability of forecasters to predict accurately the 1990-1991 recession emphasizes the need for better ways for charting the course of the economy. In this volume, leading economists examine forecasting techniques developed over the past ten years, compare their performance to traditional econometric models, and discuss new methods for forecasting and time series analysis.
