We develop a set of nonparametric rank tests for non-stationary panels based on multivariate variance ratios which use untruncated kernels. As such, the tests do not require the choice of tuning parameters associated with bandwidth or lag length and also do not require choices with respect to...

Hylleberg y otros (1990) desarrollaron un procedimiento de contraste de raíces unitarias estacionales para datos trimestrales. Dicho procedimiento fue extendido a series semanales por Cáceres (1996). Pues bien, en este trabajo se examinan los efectos de la presencia de observaciones anómalas...

We propose a rank-test of the null hypothesis of short memory stationarity possibly after linear detrending.

This paper investigates and analyzes the long-run equilibrium relationship between the Thai stock Exchange Index (SETI) and selected macroeconomic variables using monthly time series data that cover a 20-year period from January 1990 to December 2009. The following macroeconomic variables are...
