Time Series Econometrics By Prof.Dr. Abdulkareem Abdullah Mustansiriyah Unversity 2019/2020
concepts stochastic process a random or stochastic process is a collection of random variables ordered in time. Gujarati (2003) :
Concepts stationarity : a time series is said to be stationary if its mean and variance are constant over time and the value of the covariance between the two periods depends only on the distance or gap or lag between the two time periods and not the actual time at which the covariance is computed.
Concepts weakly stationary : a time series is weakly stationary when it has the following characteristics: (a) exhibits mean reversion in that it fluctuates around a constant long-run mean;
Concepts (b) has a finite variance that is time-invariant; (c) has a theoretical correlogram that diminishes as the lag length increases. In its simplest terms a time series Yt is said to be weakly stationary if: (1) Mean:E(Yt)= E(Yt) = (constant for all t); (2) Variance: Var(Yt) = E(Yt- ) = 2 (3) Covariance: Cov(Yt,Yt+k) = k = E[(Yt-)(Yt+k-)] 2
Concepts nonstationary time series : a nonstationary time series will have a time-varying mean or a time-varying variance or both.
Why are stationary time series so important? First, if a time series is nonstationary, we can study its behavior only for the time period under consideration Second, if we have two or more nonstationary time series, regression analysis involving such time series may lead to the phenomenon of spurious or nonsense regression.
Unit Root Stochastic Process the random walk model is an example of what is known in the literature as a unit root process. Let us write the random walk model as: Yt = Yt-1 + ut (-1 1) ------- (1) If = 1, eq.(1) becomes a random walk without drift. If is in fact 1, we face what is known as the unit root problem, that is, a situation of nonstationarity.
Spurious Regressions The problem with nonstationary or trended data is that (OLS) regression procedures can easily lead to incorrect conclusions . . In these cases that the regression results have very high value of R2 (sometimes even higher than 0.95) and very high values of t-ratios (sometimes even higher than 4), while the variables used in the analysis have no real interrelationships.

Example2(Spurious Regression) Consider a regression of the logarithm of real GDP (Yt) to the logarithm of real money supply (Mt) and a constant. The results obtained from such a regression are the following: Yt = 0.042 + 0.453Mt; R2 = 0.945; DW = 0.221 (4.743) t (8.572)

Augmented Dickey-Fuller Test The ADF test involves the regressions: following
( ADF(Applications
Phillips Perron Test Phillips and Perron (1988) developed a generalization of the ADF test procedure that allows for fairly mild assumptions concerning the distribution of errors. The regression for PP test is: Yt = + Yt-1 + et the PP statistics are just modifications of the ADF t statistics that take into account the less restrictive nature of the error process.
KPSS Test The aim of this test is to remove deterministic trend of the series in order to make it stationary. The hypotheses differ from that of the ADF test: H0 : Yt I (0) H1: Yt I (1)
Cointegration Two nonstationary series may have the property that a particular linear combination of them, e.g. Xt- aYt, is stationary If such a property holds Xtand Ytare cointegrated
