Historical Decomp of PCA
Posted: Tue Sep 01, 2020 4:18 am
Hello!I have cretaed an economic activity index using a numbe rof monthly indicators through a PCA. I was hoping to explain the factors which drive movements in the indicator using a historical decomposition (not a historical decomposition in terms of structural shocks but instead the contributions to the indictor which are based on variable weights). Is there a way to do this in EViews? I know how to do so with a VAR but am struggling to do so in this cases.
Thanks!
Thanks!
