"For their seminal contributions to
understanding the relationship of stock returns and business
fluctuations." |
|
|
| Comment: If
the Nobel Committee wishes to recognize achievements in finance, Fama
and French are logical choices, especially for their co-authored
papers in the 1980s and early 1990s that examined whether stock
returns could be predicted by using both macro- and microeconomic
indicators, representing the economy as a whole and the business of
individual firms, respectively. |

"For his pioneering contributions in
empirical macroeconomics, ranging over many fields, but especially for
work in public debt in the 1970s." |
|
|
|
Comment: Barro
has been for two or three decades one of the most-cited economists in
the ISI database, (as has Fama, above). He has written more than a
dozen of high-impact papers, several dealing with the determinants of
economic growth and with monetary policy.

"For their
development of cointegration analysis, an essential technique of econometrics for time-series studies and forecasting." |
|
|
| Comment:
Engle also developed the Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity (ARCH) model, another seminal
technique in econometric analyses, and this may well be mentioned in any Nobel citation as well. Other important contributors to aspects of cointegration analysis
have been Peter C. B.
Phillips of Yale University and Søren Johansen of Københavns
Universitet, both of whom are similarly highly cited. Frankly, it’s a hard choice, if the Nobel committee wishes to recognize work in this area.
