  • Stationary data

    Hello everyone,

    My question will sound easy but I get confused by reading so much different things :

    When you have datas and you don't know if its stationary or not, apply dfgls test on data, and you get something like this :

    DF-GLS for x Number of obs = 29
    Maxlag = 9 chosen by Schwert criterion

    DF-GLS tau 1% Critical 5% Critical 10% Critical
    [lags] Test Statistic Value Value Value
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    9 -0.827 -3.770 -2.719 -2.372
    8 -0.985 -3.770 -2.757 -2.428
    7 -1.216 -3.770 -2.818 -2.502
    6 -0.829 -3.770 -2.896 -2.586
    5 -1.100 -3.770 -2.986 -2.678
    4 -2.275 -3.770 -3.081 -2.771
    3 -3.021 -3.770 -3.175 -2.861
    2 -3.056 -3.770 -3.262 -2.943
    1 -2.928 -3.770 -3.336 -3.011

    Opt Lag (Ng-Perron seq t) = 5 with RMSE .6426388
    Min SC = -.3943049 at lag 1 with RMSE .7310553
    Min MAIC = -.2705526 at lag 6 with RMSE .6215392



    How can it helps me concretely to know how to make my data stationary?

    I usually specify directly ARIMA model on data, then test "estat aroots" and then I know if my process is stationary or not, but I think it is not the same because here I test if the process I specified is stationary, but not the data .

    If someone can explain me this it will be so helpful

    Thanks in advance,

    Jean
