摘要
This paper examines whether the quality or accuracy of macroeconomic forecasts improves significantly as the forecast lead or horizon is reduced. The analysis utilizes descriptive statistics as well as a number of different procedures to determine whether there is a statistically significant difference in the accuracy of the predictions at the various horizons. © 1990.
