    Linear regression models form the cornerstone of applied research in economics and other scientific disciplines. When conditional heteroskedasticity is present, or at least suspected, the practice of reweighting the data has long been abandoned in favor of estimating model parameters by ordinary least squares (OLS), in conjunction with using heteroskedasticity consistent (HC) standard errors. However, we argue for reintroducing the practice of reweighting the data, since doing so can lead to large efficiency gains of the resulting weighted least squares (WLS) estimator over OLS even when the model for reweighting the data is misspecified. Efficiency gains manifest in a first-order asymptotic sense and thus should be considered in current empirical practice. Crucially, we also derive how asymptotically valid inference based on the WLS estimator can be obtained even when the model for reweighting the data is misspecified. The idea is that, just like the OLS estimator, the WLS estimator can also be accompanied by HC standard errors without knowledge of the functional form of conditional heteroskedasticity. A Monte Carly study demonstrates attractive finite-sample properties of our proposals compared to the status quo, both in terms of estimation and making inference.

    We examine how regularly scheduled macroeconomic announcements for the U.S., Germany and the euro area affect the German stock market, using high-frequency, minute-by-minute DAX data. Our study extends the literature on high-frequency announcement effects in several ways. First, we account for endogenous return dynamics by assessing announcement impacts via response analysis. Second, we examine the announcements effects on market volatility in a more detailed fashion by distinguishing effects of positive and negative surprises. Finally, we adapt the standard weighted-least-squares approach to more adequately analyze both conditional mean and volatility effects.

    For the problem of checking linearity in a heteroscedastic nonparametric regression model under a fixed design assumption we study maximin designs which maximize the minimum power of a nonparametric test over a broad class of alternatives from the assumed linear regression model. It is demonstrated that the optimal design depends sensitively on the used estimation technique (i.e. weighted or ordinary least squares) and on an inner product used in the definiton of the class of alternatives. Our results extend and put recent finndings of Wiens (1991) in a new light, who established the maximin optimality of the uniform design for lack-of-fit tests in homoscedastic multiple linear regression models.
