contents Heavy-tailed distributions, such as the Cauchy distribution, are acknowledged for providing more accurate models for financial returns, as the normal distribution is deemed insufficient for capturing the significant fluctuations observed in real-world assets. Data sets characterized by outlier sensitivity are critically important in diverse areas, including finance, economics, telecommunications, and signal processing. This article addresses a goodness-of-fit test for the Cauchy distribution. The proposed test utilizes empirical likelihood methods, including the jackknife empirical likelihood (JEL) and adjusted jackknife empirical likelihood (AJEL). Extensive Monte Carlo simulation studies are conducted to evaluate the finite sample performance of the proposed test. The application of the proposed test is illustrated through the analysing two real data sets.
