RESUMEN Se propone uilizar el esimador calculado por el méodo de momen- mercados accionarios de México y Chile en el período , que bas economías el facor de descueno esocásico muesra años en los - dos eapas y los del ieraivo, y se muesra la superioridad del esimador coninuamene acualizado sobre esas dos écnicas de esimación an Palabras clave ABSTRACT This paper proposes he use of an esimaor calculaed using he generalized mehod of momens coninuously updaed o characerize a linear sochasic discoun facor for a given economy. The esimaor is applied o he Mexican and Chilean sock markes for , his period includes economies, ook values of less han one and presened high marke volailiy values during several years. A comparison wih he resuls from he wo sages generalized mehods of momens and he ieraive one is also discussed, showing he superioriy of he coninuous updaing esimaor over hese wo frequenly used esimaion echniques.
