AbstractMany researchers believe that the stock returns are generated by nonlinear systems. In this paper the author applies commonly used tests to examine the threshold-type nonlinearity in Hong Kong stock returns. The results indicate that threshold autoregression is a possible class of nonlinear models for modelling and forecasting financial returns.
