Least Squares with Breaks
Posted: Fri Sep 01, 2017 12:59 pm
Hi,
I'm new to EViews 10 and saw that there is a new regression method called "Least Squares with Breakpoints" which splits the regression results based on bai-perron test for structural breaks. I have two questions on this:
1- What happens when one of the regressors is non-significant in only 1 bracket (sub-period), and significant in the other, can we keep the variable in the model?
2-If the variables have unit root, but are cointegrated, will my inferences based on the associated statistics be correct?
If anyone has any documentation on this method please share!
Thanks.
