“…This momentum in the literature is partly due to the fact that 'yields-only' models based on no-arbitrage were found to do well in fitting the cross-section of yields at a particular point in time (Dai and Singleton, 2000), but poorly in describing the dynamics of the yield curve (Duffee, 2002). Contributions to the literature include Fuhrer and Moore (1995), Rudebusch (1995Rudebusch ( , 2002, Evans and Marshall (1996), Fuhrer (1996), Ang and Piazzesi (2003), Bikbov and Chernov (2010), Piazzesi (2005), Dewachter and Lyrio (2006), Hördahl et al (2006), and Rudebusch and Wu (2008).…”
