Several Questions Regarding Serial Correlation

Hello

First, I would like to ask if there is any way to reduce serial correlation in my residuals. I am applying the DOLS methodology and by manipulating the leads and lags, I achieve the correlogram that is at the end of this post.

The second question is, whether that much correlation as the one I have is actually a problem. I have heard that small correlation can be neglected, however, I am not exactly sure how much correlation can be regarded as "small".

Lastly, if I do have correlation, can applying HAC (Newey-West) compensate for this?

Hi there,

Just asking if you could fix your correlation problem? I am using DOLS for a panel, and I have the same issue but I haven't found any luck for dealing with it. I was told about the cochrane-orcutt procedure. You might want to check it out!

Good luck
