Rank Test (Corrado 1989)

Description

Non-parametric rank test for event studies. Ranks abnormal returns across the combined estimation and event windows, which is robust to non-normality of abnormal returns.

Super class

TestStatisticBase -> RankTest

Public fields

name

Short code of the test statistic.
