Subject | st: FIGARCH ado files? |
Date | Fri, 20 Aug 2010 12:13:04 -0400 |
Hi; I am running a basic GARCH(1,1) model of daily observations for the SP500' earnings yield against Treasury yields. My coefficients violate the stationarity condition of covariance. I tried GJR-GARCH and GARCH models with various lag structures, in the end with the same problem. I have two questions: 1) Is it legitimate to force the coefficients (L1.arch +L1.garch) to sum to 1? Even though the sum is greater (but close) to 1, say 1.02; and each coefficient is significant at the 99% level. Essentially assuming an IGARCH(1,1). 2) Does anyone know about any FIGARCH ado files available in Stata?
