This review discusses methods of testing for explosive bubbles in time series. A large number of recently developed testing methods under various assumptions about innovation of errors are covered. The review also considers the methods for dating explosive (bubble) regimes. Special attention is devoted to time-varying volatility in the errors. Moreover, the modelling of possible relationships between time series with explosive regimes is discussed.

On the asymptotic behavior of bubble date estimators

In this study, we extend the three-regime bubble model of Pang et al. (2021) to allow the forth regime followed by the unit root process after recovery. We provide the asymptotic and finite sample…

Detecting periodically collapsing bubbles: a Markov‐switching unit root test

This paper addresses the problem of testing for the presence of a stochastic bubble in a time series in the case that the bubble is periodically collapsing so that the asset price keeps returning to…

When bubbles burst: econometric tests based on structural breaks

Speculative bubbles have played an important role ever since in financial economics. During an ongoing bubble it is relevant for investors and policy-makers to know whether the bubble continues to…

Testing for Multiple Bubbles: Historical Episodes of Exuberance and Collapse in the S&P 500

Recent work on econometric detection mechanisms has shown the effectiveness of recursive procedures in identifying and dating financial bubbles in real time. These procedures are useful as warning…

Testing explosive bubbles with time-varying volatility

Abstract This article considers the problem of testing for an explosive bubble in financial data in the presence of time-varying volatility. We propose a weighted least squares-based variant of the…

Testing for Mild Explosivity and Bubbles in LME Non‐Ferrous Metals Prices

This article applies the mildly explosive/multiple bubbles testing methodology developed by Phillips et al. (2015a, International Economic Review, forthcoming) to examine the recent time series…

Explosive Asset Price Bubble Detection with Unknown Bubble Length and Initial Condition

Recent research has proposed a method of detecting explosive processes that is based on forward recursions of OLS, right‐tailed, Dickey–Fuller [DF] unit root tests. In this paper, an alternative…

Explosive Behavior in the 1990s' NASDAQ: When Did Exuberance Escalate Asset Values?

A recursive test procedure is suggested that provides a mechanism for testing explosive behavior, date-stamping the origination and collapse of economic exuberance, and providing valid confidence…

Limit Theory for Dating the Origination and Collapse of Mildly Explosive Periods in Time Series Data

Some limit theory is developed for estimators suggested in Phillips, Wu and Yu (2009) for dating bubble pheonoma in time series data. The models involve mildly explosive autoregressions and the tests…
