The Power of the KPSS - Test for Cointegration when Residuals are Fractionally Integrated

نویسنده

  • Walter Krämer
چکیده

We show that the power of the KPSS-test against integration, as measured by divergence rates of the test statistic under the alternative, remains the same when residuals from an OLS-regression rather than true observations are used. This is in stark contrast to residual based tests of the null of integration in a cointegration setting, where power is drastically reduced when residuals are used. JEL-numbers: C12, C32.

A Model of Fractional Cointegration, and Tests for Cointegration Using the Bootstrap∗

The paper proposes a framework for modelling cointegration in fractionally integrated processes, and considers methods for testing the existence of cointegrating relationships using the parametric bootstrap. In these procedures, ARFIMA models are fitted to the data, and the estimates used to simulate the null hypothesis of non-cointegration in a vector autoregressive modelling framework. The si...

A Residual-Based LM Test for Fractional Cointegration

Nonstationary fractionally integrated time series may possibly be fractionally cointegrated. In this paper we propose a test for the null hypothesis of no cointegration. It builds on a static cointegration regression of the levels of the variables as a first step. In a second step, a univariate LM test is applied to the single equation regression residuals. However, it turns out that the applic...

Alternative Bootstrap Procedures for Testing Cointegration in Fractionally Integrated Processes

This paper considers alternative methods of testing cointegration in fractionally integrated processes, using the bootstrap. The special feature of the fractional case is the dependence of the asymptotic null distributions of conventional statistics on the fractional integration parameter. Such tests are said to be asymptotically non-pivotal, and conventional asymptotic tests are therefore not ...

Implementing Residual-Based KPSS Tests for Cointegration with Data Subject to Temporal Aggregation and Mixed Sampling Frequencies

We show how temporal aggregation affects the size and power of the DOLS residualbased KPSS test of the null of cointegration. Size is effectively controlled by setting the minimum number of leads equal to one – as opposed to zero – when selecting the lag/lead order of the DOLS regression, but at a cost to power in finite samples. If highfrequency data for one or more series are available, we sh...

Exploring the Relationship between Consumer Credits and Interest Rates in Turkey: A Fractional Cointegration Analysis

This paper investigates the relationship between consumer credits and interest rates in Turkey based on the fractional cointegration approach by using daily observations over the period from 4 January 2002 to 24 December 2010. First, we ignore the possible structural breaks in the series and perform the Geweke and Porter-Hudak (GPH) test on the residuals for fractional cointegration. Second, we...
