Speculative Behaviour, Regime-Switching and Stock Market Crashes
https://www.bankofcanada.ca/1996/10/working-paper-1996-13/
This paper uses regime-switching econometrics to study stock market crashes and to explore the ability of two very different economic explanations to account for historical crashes. The first explanation is based on historical accounts of "manias and panics."

Avoiding the Pitfalls: Can Regime-Switching Tests Detect Bubbles?
https://www.bankofcanada.ca/1996/08/working-paper-1996-11/
Work on testing for bubbles has caused much debate, much of which has focussed on methodology. Monte Carlo simulations reported in Evans (1991) showed that standard tests for unit roots and cointegration frequently reject the presence of bubbles even when such bubbles are present by construction. Evans referred to this problem as the pitfall of testing for bubbles.

Unit-Root Tests and Excess Returns
https://www.bankofcanada.ca/1996/08/working-paper-1996-10/
Several recent papers have presented evidence from foreign exchange and other markets suggesting that the log of excess returns can be characterized as first-order integrated processes (I(1)). This contrasts sharply with the "conventional" wisdom that log prices are integrated of order one I(1) and that log returns should therefore be integrated of order zero I(0), and even more sharply with the view that past returns have no ability to predict future returns (weak market efficiency).

Excess Volatility and Speculative Bubbles in the Canadian Dollar: Real or Imagined?
https://www.bankofcanada.ca/1996/07/technical-report-no76/
Greater intervention by the public sector is often proposed as a solution to the increased speculation and excessive price volatility thought to characterize today's competitive world financial system.
