  • ARDL post-estimation and CUSUM...how do I interpret the results?

    Dear Statalisters,

    I've learnt a lot on this forum wrt ARDL module developed by Kripfangz and Schneider and read their 2016 Chicago Conference paper back-to-back. Although detailed, the paper left out post-estimation checks and how to interpret the results.

    So, having done all need regressions, Bounds, ARDL (levels), ARDL (error correction representation) all look good but I need to ascertain the goodness of my model. I have 4 variables:
    1 endogenous, 1 weakly exogenous and 2 strictly exogenous....

    specified as: ardl y x1, exog(x2 x3) maxlags() aic

    In summary, my post-estimation results are:
    DW stat = 0.9842 (close to 1, not sure)
    ARCHLM = 0.0092 (not sure, it's significant, so looks bad)
    Breusch-Godfrey = 0.0002 (significant, looks bad)
    Breusch-Pagan = 0.9240 (not significant, looks good)
    Ramsey RESET = 0.1347 (not significant, looks good)
    Multicollinearity test (mean VIF) = 2.39 (looks good)

    Please how do I correct the ARCHLM and Breusch-Godfrey? Also, I tried CUSUM and Stata returned with this message:

    cusum y x1, generate(y_x1)
    Yvar has values outside range [0,1]....yes, because Y variable is domestic credit (% of GDP).

    How can I manoeuvre this? I will appreciate your help....gracias!
