Assymetric Magnitude of Impulse Response in VAR
Posted: Tue Sep 19, 2017 5:40 pm
Hi fellows,
I'm trying to estimate impulse responses in a VAR model. The variables include oil and some other macroeconomic variables. However, the economic theory states that magnitude of positive and negative shock of oil on these macroeconomic variables are different.
Thus, I need your assistance in how to estimate a VAR model and generate IRFs when the magnitude of negative and positive shocks are different ?
Thanks,
