CATS rank test statistics
Posted: Sat Feb 27, 2016 5:30 pm
Dear Tom,
I was trying to replicate results from Juselius' "The Cointegrated VAR Model".
I have been fine until page 199 on Chapter 11 for Tests of cointegration rank with exogenous variables.
But this code does not provide the result as written out in the book. P-values are very small for rank r=3 where as it is supposed to be large p-value to accept as in the book. Do you possibly know what is going on with this test?
Or did I do something wrong?
Thank you in advance for your thought/advice.

* (a) Use I(1)--Set Rank of Pi and choose 3 cointegrating vectors.
*
* Test for Rb as weakly exogenous.
* (b) Use I(1)--Test for Weak Exogeneity. Input 1 as the number of
* weakly exogenous variables. Set the R value to 1.0 on DRB.
*
* Automated test for weak exogeneity.
* (c) Choose Automated Tests--West Exogeneity. This will produce table 11.1

* Joint test of weak exogeneity of yr and db
* (d) Choose I(1)--Test for Weak Exogeneity. Input 2 as the number of weakly
* exogenous variables. For the R matrix, enter a 1.0 in the DRB column
* on the first row, and in the DLYR column on the second row.

* (a) Do I(1)--Rank Test Statistics
* (b) Do I(1)--Set Rank of Pi and set r=3. Normalize on DPY, LM3RC and RM in that order.
* (c) Do Misc--Short Run Parameters to get the short-run matrices needed to fill in the bottom of

* (d) Do Misc--Residual Analysis to get table 11.3
* (e) Exit CATSOr did I do something wrong?
