Regime-Switching ModelsMay 18, 2005 James D. HamiltonDepartment of Economics, 0508 University of California, San DiegoLa Jolla, CA for: Palgrave Dictionary of Economics0 Many economic time series occasionally exhibit dramatic breaks in their behavior, asso-ciated with events such asfinancial crises (Jeanne and Masson, 2000; Cerra, 2005; Hamilton,2005) or abrupt changes in government policy (Hamilton, 1988; Sims and Zha, 2004, Davig,2004). Of particular interest to economists is the apparent tendency of many economicvariables to behave quite differently during economic downturns, when underutilization offactors of production rather than their long-run tendency to grow governs economic dynam-ics (Hamilton, 1989, Chauvet and Hamilton, 2005). Abrupt changes are also a prevalentfeature offinancial data, and the approach described below is quite amenable to theoreticalcalculations for how such abrupt changes in fundamentals should show up in asset prices(Ang and Bekaert, 2003; Garcia, Luger, and Renault, 2003; Dai, Singleton, and Wei, 2003).
