Abstract

Hodrick–Prescott (HP) filter is a popular trend filtering method for univariate macroeconomic time series such as real gross domestic product. This paper considers the quantile regression version of HP filter (qHP filter), which is a filtering method defined by replacing quadratic loss function of HP filter with quantile regression loss function. One of the essential properties of quantile regression is that if the regression includes intercept, then the ratio of negative residuals can be almost controlled. Does the suggested qHP filter also have the property? This paper answers this question. In addition to the main result, we provide an empirical illustration.
