Orders of Integration

Unread post by TVolscho-286 »

Hi everyone,

I have a question about testing for cointegration between two series X and Y. If X is difference stationary and Y is trend stationary is it valid to test for cointegration? If so, is the EG test fine or would one use a different test?

If Y is trend stationary, then X and Y can't be cointegrated, since Y isn't integrated in the first place.
