I get t-stats of zero for the MA coefficients, but if I do a joint
test, they are highly significant.
That does not seem right to me at all.
I am including the data with this email. Given this data:
arima y, arima(2,1,2)
ARIMA regression
Sample: 2 to 233 Number of obs = 232
Wald chi2(4) = 645.52
Log likelihood = -409.4094 Prob > chi2 = 0.0000
