|December 8, 2020
Summary
US economic policy significantly impacts China-US trade, with China adjusting passively. Since 2016, China's economic policy has driven exchange rate fluctuations, influencing US policy.
Area of Science:
- Economics
- Econometrics
- International Trade
Background:
- Economic policy uncertainty (EPU) influences global markets.
- Understanding information flow between economic policies, trade, and exchange rates is crucial.
Purpose of the Study:
- To investigate the dynamic information flow among EPU, China-US trade, and the CNY/US exchange rate.
- To introduce and validate the effective transfer entropy (ETE) method for analyzing complex economic systems.
Main Methods:
- Utilized effective transfer entropy (ETE) with a sliding window methodology.
- Validated ETE against linear transfer entropy (TE) and Granger causality methods.
- Analyzed data from 2016 onwards to capture recent trends.
Main Results:
- US economic policy is a substantial driver of China-US bilateral trade since 2016.
- China's economic policy significantly influences the CNY/US exchange rate since 2016.
- Exchange rate fluctuations, driven by China's policy, subsequently affect US economic policy.
Conclusions:
- The study highlights the asymmetric and dynamic nature of information flow in the China-US economic relationship.
- ETE is a robust method for quantifying information transfer in economic systems.
- Findings underscore the interconnectedness of economic policies, trade volumes, and currency values.

Econometric Views (EViews)
372
Econometric Views, often stylized as EViews, is a package that merges statistical analysis with econometric studies. It is designed to provide tools for time series analysis, forecasting, and econometric model simulation. The software originated from MicroTSP software and has evolved significantly since its inception in 1981. The history of EViews is marked by a continuous effort to enhance its computational speed and user interface. It was initially developed for large computing systems but...

Time-Series Graph
4.8K
A time-series graph is a line graph with repeated measurements taken at successive intervals of time. It is also called a time series chart. To construct a time-series graph, one must look at both pieces of a paired data set. The horizontal axis is used to plot the time increments, and the vertical axis is used to plot the values of the variable that one is measuring. By using the axes in this way, each point on the graph will correspond to time and a measured quantity. The points on the graph...

Eulerian and Lagrangian Flow Descriptions
1.7K
Fluid flow analysis is critical in many scientific and engineering disciplines, and two principal approaches are used to describe this flow: the Eulerian and Lagrangian methods. These methods offer different perspectives on monitoring and analyzing the motion of fluids, each with distinct advantages depending on the scenario.
The Eulerian method focuses on fixed points in space where fluid properties, such as velocity, pressure, and temperature, are observed as the fluid moves between these...

Urodynamic Studies: Uroflowmetry
1.7K
Uroflowmetry is a non-invasive urodynamic test designed to measure various aspects of urination, including volume, flow rate, and the time to void. This test is crucial for diagnosing and assessing conditions such as bladder outlet obstruction, bladder dysfunction, incomplete bladder emptying, incontinence, and urinary tract blockages caused by benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and urethral strictures.Pre-Test Instructions:Before a uroflowmetry test, patients are typically advised to drink...

The Power Flow Problem and Solution
483
Power flow problem analysis is fundamental for determining real and reactive power flows in network components, such as transmission lines, transformers, and loads. The power system's single-line diagram provides data on the bus, transmission line, and transformer. Each bus k in the system is characterized by four key variables: voltage magnitude Vk, phase angle δk, real power Pk, and reactive power Qk. Two of these four variables are inputs, while the power flow program computes...

Increasing Function
99
An increasing function exhibits a rise in output values as input values increase. This behavior is depicted graphically as a curve or line that slopes upward from left to right. Such a function satisfies the condition that if x1 < x2, then f(x1) < f(x2), indicating that the function values grow with increasing inputs. This concept is fundamental in understanding growth trends across various domains, such as population dynamics, financial investments, or resource consumption.The...
