问题如下:
If an asset has zero skewness, what is the maximum kurtosis it can have to not reject normality with a sample size of 100 using a 5% test? What if the sample size is 2,500?

解释:
The Jarque-Bera has distribution, and the critical value for a test with a size of 5% is 5.99. The Jarque-Bera statistic is
so that when the skewness , the test statistic is .
In order to not reject the null, we need ≤ 5.99
and so
and .
When T = 100, this value is 4.20. When T = 2,500 this value is 3.24. This shows that the JB test statistic is sensitive to even mild excess kurtosis.
"This shows that the JB test statistic is sensitive to even mild excess kurtosis."这句话怎么理解?
