Subject   st: VECM model using vec command

Hi all

For whom using vec model regularily


1. I am trying to estimate a VECM model for demand (ln_qt) as dependent variable; and (ln_VKM , lnincome , Lnf ] as three independent variables.

2- After testing the number of cointegrating relation using "vecrank" 
the results shows that I have multiple cointegrating vectors (2).

3.  the number of lags decided using VAR and lag length criteria before doing the cointegration test for my VECM model (Lag no.=3)

4- based on above 

I belive my VECM model specification should be:

Δyt = λ1 + λ2 Δxt − γ1 (yt−1 − xt−1) + γ2 (yt−1 − xt−1)+ πxt−1 + ηt 

where y is the dependent variable and  X is a vector of Independent variables 



I have used a "vec" comand as follws:

vec ln_qt ln_VKM  lnincome  Lnf , lag(3) rank (2)





My question are:

A- did I specified the VECM equation and vec command correctl?

B- the vec outputs is very confusing (it seems specified 4 models where each variable i have used was specified as dependend variable in one of the four models).

I am only intersted to estimate a demand (ln_qt) model. 

Also the outputs in STATA are not well organised and I find it dificult to
interpret th paramaters. Any help in the interpretation will be appreciated.
