Stationarity

[Ara Makaryan]

Hello. I am making a research on renationship between countries GDP, population number and Energy consumption. Dependent Variable is energy consumption.
I have preapred panel data for 159 countries and time is 2008-2013. Unit root test show, that GDP and Energy consumption are stationary at 1st difference. I created new series of 1st differences for this varibles.

My issue is following: The new series have a lot of NA values :( . Can someone advise me how to be in this situation and how to continue.
Thanks in advance.

I would attch my workfile as well.

Thanks and regards

Ara

You may have typed the commands incorrectly. For example,

Code: Select all

d_energy_cons=d_gdp(energy_cons)

should probably have been

Code: Select all

d_energy_cons=d(energy_cons)
