Zusammenfassung: 
We employ a modified dynamic model averaging framework which permits inferences about the shifting relevance and significance of explanatory variables to assess in-sample performance of exchange-rate models and empirical validity of purchasing-power-parity (PPP). The analysis is based on 16,384 empirical specifications constructed from 14 canonical and newly introduced explanatory variables for six US dollar exchange rates. Our findings indicate the best performing empirical exchange rate specification is unstable and changes frequently; individual explanatory variables display large time- and cross-currency variation in relevance and effects; and the combination of explanatory variables that enhances the empirical evidence of PPP differs by exchange rates. These findings underscore the challenge in applying a single exchange-rate model or the scapegoat hypothesis to explain all exchange rates in all historical periods.
