The main purpose of this paper is to examine the relationship between consumer price index (CPI) and producer price index (PPI) in Malaysia. This research considers monthly data of consumer price index and producer price index from January 1986 to April 2007. The Johansen cointegration method suggests that there is long-run equilibrium relationship between these two variables. Both Engle Grange...

A novel method for structural health monitoring under environmental and operational variations (EOV) is proposed based on the prediction errors of Johansen cointegartion (CI) residuals using a Recurrent Neural Network (RNN). The first four natural frequency time series structure, identified from vibration measurements over period time, are used to this end. Variational Mode Decomposition (VMD) ...

This paper investigates the important question of what relationship, if any, exists between economic infrastructure, gross fixed capital formation, and FDI inflows to Hungary during the 1995-2012 period. Although this question has great significance from an economic policy standpoint, there has been little to no empirical analysis undertaken so far in the case of transition economies such as Hu...

The basic aim of the study is to examine both the short run and long run relationship between fiscal deficit and economic growth in India by covering the time period from 1970-71 to 201112. Johansen Cointegration test, Granger Causality test, And Vector Error correction Model (VECM) technique are adopted in order to examine the objectives of this study. The Johansen methodology confirms the exi...

This paper analyzes possible cointegration relations among the sub-indexes of the Istanbul Stock Exchange series services sector, industry sector and financial sector for the period from February 1, 1997 to September 24, 2003. The data is analyzed by using various methods initiated by Engle and Granger (1987), Johansen (1988) and Akdi (1995). The basic finding of this study is that none of thes...

The purpose of this study was to empirically investigate the interactions between various taxes and GDP, and to detect whether taxes function as an automatic stabilizer in Turkey. Firstly, When using a time series unit-root test as proposed by Dickey-Fuller (1979), econometric findings revealed that taxes and level of GDP are not static. Secondly, upon employing cointegration designed by Johans...

The present paper is aimed at studying the nature of the causal relationship between stock prices and macroeconomic variables in India, if any such relationship exists. For this purpose the techniques of unit– root tests, cointegration and the Granger causality test have been applied between the NSE Index ‘Nifty’ and the macroeconomic variables, viz., Real effective economic rate (REER), Foreig...

Multivariate tests due to Johansen (1988, 1991) as implemented by Baillie and Bollerslev (1989a) and Diebold, Gardeazabal, and Yilmaz (1994) reveal mixed evidence on whether a group of exchange rates are cointegrated. Further analysis of the deviations from the cointegrating relationship suggests that it possesses long memory and may possibly be well described as a fractionally integrated proce...

The present study explores the impacts of foreign capital inflows in terms of external debt, foreign direct investment and worker’s remittances on domestic investment in Pakistan economy for the period of 1972-2007. Since the study utilizes the time series data of the sample period so augmented Dickey-Fuller unit root test has been employed to find out each of the time series variables to be st...

This paper is an attempt to test the existence of Wagner’s Law in Pakistan. In this connection the Johansen and Juselius (1990) Cointegration approach has been used to test the long-run relationship between government expenditures and its determinants for Pakistan. Short-run dynamics are estimated by using the Error Correction Mechanism (ECM), various diagnostics and the stability tests are use...
