We study Davis-type theorems on the optimal rate of convergence of moderate deviation probabilities. In the case of martingale difference sequences, under the finite pth moments hypothesis (1≤p<∞), and depending on the normalization factor, our results show that Davis' theorems either hold if and only if p>2 or fail for all p≥1. This is in sharp contrast with the classical case of i.i.d. centered sequences, where both Davis' theorems hold under the finite second moment hypothesis (or less).

For sequences of independent and identically distributed random variables it is well known that the existence of the second moment implies the law of the iterated logarithm. We show that the law of the iterated logarithm does not extend to arrays of independent and identically distributed random variables and we develop an analogous rate result for such arrays under finite fourth moments.
