Hi Glen

Don't worry ... nobody reads this list on the long weekend.

These "puppies" should be at your local library right next to hockey. <G>

The Econometric Modelling of Financial Time Series
by Terence C. Mills

Reviews
Book Description
Including bond equity and foreign exchange markets, this book provides
detailed coverage of the variety of models that are currently being used in
the empirical analysis of financial markets. It is aimed at scholars as well
as practitioners wishing the latest research techniques and findings.

This book provides in a single text detailed coverage of the variety of
models that are currently being used in the empirical analysis of financial
markets. Covering bond equity and foreign exchange markets, it is aimed at
scholars and practitioners wishing to acquire an understanding of the latest
research techniques and findings in the field, and also at graduate students
wishing to research in financial markets.

The book is divided into two main sections, covering univariate models, and
econometric and multivariate techniques respectively. In the former, the
areas covered include linear and non-linear stochastic models, random walks,
unit root tests, GARCH models, deterministic chaos, trend reversion, and
bubbles. In the latter, regression models, time-varying parameter models,
vector autoregressions, present value models, and cointegration are
discussed.
