Inhalte: Quantitative Methods I: Time Series Analysis Many economic variables are observed on a regular frequency (e.g. the quarterly growth rate of GDP, the monthly CPI inflation rate, daily interest rates, daily returns of the DAX stock market index). This type of data is known as time series data and often features correlation over time that can be exploited for forecasting. In this course, econometric models for univariate as well as multivariate time series data are introduced.
Lernziele: By the end of the course you should be able to perform the following tasks: chose a suitable statistical model for time series data on the basis of statistical tests and acquired experience; fit models to time series data; assess the relative performance of various models using statistical tools; discuss the theoretical assumptions underlying each model apply your knowledge to a research question/ paper and critically evaluate it
