Principal Components Analysis of Cointegrated Time Series Harris, David 10.4225/03/5934cc03e1809 https://bridges.monash.edu/articles/journal_contribution/Principal_Components_Analysis_of_Cointegrated_Time_Series/5072797 This paper considers the analysis of cointegrated time series using principal components methods. These methods have the advantage of neither requiring the normalisation imposed by the triangular error correction model, nor the specification of a finite order vector autoregression. An asymptotically efficient estimator of the cointegrating vectors is given, along with tests for cointegration and tests of certain linear restrictions on the cointegrating vectors. An illustrative application is provided. 2017-06-05 03:12:02 1959.1/36042 monash:6915 1996
