It works just fine. Could please check the build date of your EViews? (go to Help->About EViews)

Dear Trubador,

Thank you for your patience and apologies for the late reply. The office closed and I did not have access to Eviews.

The build date is April 27 2015.

Dr Trubador,

I am having an issue with the estimation of the 10 minutes interval in the second sample period.
The error message is "Attempt to raise a negative number to a non integer power -
Missing data generated in "SERIES STRES1 = RES1 /(VAR_R1 ^ .5)"

Please how can I resolve this?

Thank you.

Estimated coefficients yield a negative value for the variance at some point. Change the starting values and re-estimate the model until you have a statistically valid and feasible output.

Hello. I tried to estimate a bivariate bekk model using this code but i can't understand how to interpret the result. I need to know which is diagonal and off diagonal elements of matrix alpha and matrix beta. The result show me only 3 elements and i don't know about the fourth one. I thought maybe this matrices are restricted lower or upper triangular but the methodology says that should be unrestricted. Thanks a lot for the code and for your help.

Hi there,
I am a beginner to Econometrics. I use the following BEKK specification for my research work. I need some help on interpreting the estimation results.
Thanks in advance,
Fist I selected OBJECT – NEW OBJECT – SYSTEM and I typed
Ashare = C(1) + C(2)*Ashare(-1)
Bshare = C(3) + C(4)*Bshare(-1)
Then I selected – ESTIMATE
Estimation method – ARCH-Conditional Hetroscadsticity
Model Type – Diagonal BEKK
Coefficient – GARCH(1)
Error Distribution- Multivariate Student t
I got the following results

What do the coefficients indicate and what coefficients indicate mean spillovers and volatility spillovers between A-share and B-Shares. What do negative coefficients indicate?

Hi

Should the sum of ARCH and GARCH coefficients of Diagonal BEKK (GARCH(1)) be less than unity ?

Thanks

Hi there,
I have the same question as you. Do you figure it out now? If yes, can you please tell me how to interpret estimation results?Thanks a lot!!!

Hello Guys,

How can we run a square matrix BEKK model in Eviews. I know there is a diagonal Bekk button , but i want to run the square matrix version to check relationship between oil and stock markets
