macro announcement impact on yield curve
Posted: Thu May 21, 2015 1:09 am
Hi All,
I am trying to estimate the impact that macro announcement have on the yield curve. At present I have an Eviews workfile in panel data format.
Data: daily data from 2003 to 2014 for both Economic surprise index and yields. The excel file imported in Eviews is structured such as I have copied 3 times the dates in column A, 3 times the ESI (economic surprise index) and next to each bond yields for maturity 3 months, 5 years and 10 years.
I would like to try and enter in Eviews following equation:
ESI = β yield it + μ1D1 + μ2D2 + μ3D3 + vit
where the errors have been broken down in Uit = μi + vit such as μ is the individual specific effect and v is the remainder disturbance.
Does anyone have any idea of how can I write the above in eviews? (I am using Eviews 8 - student version)
Thank you in advance,
Letizia
