Finance and Economics Discussion Series - The Effects of Weather on Retail Sales - Martha Starr-McCluer

Finance and Economics Discussion Series - The Effects of Weather on Retail Sales - Martha Starr-McCluer

Monthly fluctuations in consumer spending are often attributed to the weather. This paper presents a model in which weather affects the productivity of time in nonmarket activities (such as shopping or recreation), and so, via time and budget constraints, may induce substitution in spending across goods and over time. Using monthly data on retail sales and weather data from the National Weather Service, I find that unusual weather has a modest but significant role in explaining monthly sales fluctuations...

Water-Quality Reconnaissance of Laguna Tortuguero, Vega Baja, Puerto Rico, March 1999-May 2000 - Usgs Open-File Report 2006-1049 - Luis Soler-Lopez

Water-Quality Reconnaissance of Laguna Tortuguero, Vega Baja, Puerto Rico, March 1999-May 2000 - Usgs Open-File Report 2006-1049 - Luis Soler-Lopez

The Laguna Tortuguero, a slightly saline to freshwater lagoon in north-central Puerto Rico, has a surface area of about 220 hectares and a mean depth of about 1.2 meters. As part of a water-quality reconnaissance, water samples were collected at about monthly and near bi-monthly intervals from March 1999 to May 2000 at four sites: three stations inside the lagoon and one station at the artificial outlet channel dredged in 1940, which connects the lagoon with the Atlantic Ocean. Physical characteristics..

International Finance Discussion Papers - The Use and Abuse of Real-Time Data in Economic Forecasting - Evan Koenig

International Finance Discussion Papers - The Use and Abuse of Real-Time Data in Economic Forecasting - Evan Koenig

We distinguish between three different ways of using real-time data to estimate forecasting equations and argue that the most frequently used approach should generally be avoided. The point is illustrated with a model that uses monthly observations of industrial production, employment, and retail sales to predict real GDP growth. When the model is estimated using our preferred method, its out-of-sample forecasting performance is clearly superior to that obtained using conventional estimation, and..

Floods in Florida Due to Tropical Storm Fay, August 15 Through September 26, 2008 - Open-File Report 2010-1142 - Richard J Verdi

Floods in Florida Due to Tropical Storm Fay, August 15 Through September 26, 2008 - Open-File Report 2010-1142 - Richard J Verdi

Weather conditions produced by Tropical Storm Fay from August 15 through September 26, 2008, caused historic flooding, spawned 19 tornadoes, inflicted $390 million in damages, and contributed to five deaths in Florida. This slow-moving system made four separate landfalls accompanied by extensive rainfall and some wind-induced effects. Major flooding with new period-of-record instantaneous peaks and maximum monthly mean streamflows were reported throughout the Ochlockonee and St. Marks Rivers in the..

Finance and Economics Discussion Series - Gses, Mortgage Rates, and Secondary Market Activities - Andreas Lehnert

Finance and Economics Discussion Series - Gses, Mortgage Rates, and Secondary Market Activities - Andreas Lehnert

Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs) that securitize mortgages and issue mortgage-backed securities (MBS). In addition, the GSEs are active participants in the secondary mortgage market on behalf of their own investment portfolios. Because these portfolios have grown quite large, portfolio purchases (in addition to MBS issuance) are often thought to be an important force in the mortgage market. Using monthly data from 1993 to 2005 we estimate a VAR model of the relationship..

Finance and Economics Discussion Series - A Dynamic Factor Model of the Yield Curve as a Predictor of the Economy

Finance and Economics Discussion Series - A Dynamic Factor Model of the Yield Curve as a Predictor of the Economy

In this paper, we propose an econometric model of the joint dynamic relationship between the yield curve and the economy to predict business cycles. We examine the predictive value of the yield curve to forecast future economic growth as well as the beginning and end of economic recessions at the monthly frequency. The proposed nonlinear multivariate dynamic factor model takes into account not only the popular term spread but also information extracted from the level and curvature of the yield curve..

How Retail Beef and Bread Prices Respond to Changes in Ingredient and Input Costs

How Retail Beef and Bread Prices Respond to Changes in Ingredient and Input Costs

The extent to which cost changes pass through a vertically organized production process depends on the value added by each producer in the chain as well as a number of other organizational and marketing factors at each stage of production. Using 36 years of monthly Bureau of Labor Statistics price indices data (1972-2008), we model pass-through behavior for beef and bread, two retail food items with different levels of processing. Both the farm-to-wholesale and wholesale-to-retail price responses..
