procedure95 of both processes, the turning points mark the dates
of change from one state to the other. As in the case of the
Markov-switching model, restrictions for the amplitude of devia-
tions can be formulated and - as it is a probabilistic approach -
probabilities for being in a contractive or expansionary state can
be generated. However, this can also be seen as problematic, as
outlined in the case of the Markov-switching model.
