Dear All,

I wonder why the coefficients of cointegrated vector differ estimating them with VEC object and estimating them with OLS? Example below.
I was thinking they should be equal. Anyone could instruct me please, what is estimation mechanics behind VEC coint vector ...

Code: Select all

close wf create wf u 1 50 series y = rnd series x = rnd smpl 11 50 var eq_vec.ec 1 2 y x ' Coint. equation estimated using VEC equation eq_ols.ls y x c 'Coint. equation estimated using OLS
