Abstract
⺠We use panel smooth transition regression (PSTR) models to evaluate earnings persistence. ⺠Earnings persistence depends on transition variable in different regimes and varies with time. ⺠PSTR models have better fitting performance and predictability than linear models. ⺠PSTR model with lagged cash flows as regressors is the optimal forecasting model of earnings.
