    Abstract

    This paper uses recently developed sequential ADF tests to distinguish between rational speculative bubbles and explosive fundamentals in the US Stock market. The sequential ADF tests are shown to be more sensitive than the conventional ADF test. Results also suggest the more refined GSADF test may deliver more consistent results compared to the SADF test. We find strong evidence of explosive behavior in real stock prices that cannot be attributed to explosive fundamentals. We find renewed evidence of a stock market bubble during the dot com boom but no evidence of a bubble at other times.
