“…Quan () do, and find the slope coefficient to be 0.48, which is substantially lower than our (full‐sample) estimate of 1.047. As for the other commodities, although Krehbiel and Adkins () estimate the slope coefficient to be 1.005 for gold and silver, and 1.009 for platinum, Chow () estimates the slope coefficients of gold, silver, and platinum to be 0.997, 0.999, and 0.990, respectively. Thus, although our estimate for oil differs markedly from previous results, the results for gold, silver, and platinum are largely consistent with the existing evidence.…”
