We call a stochastic process purely random or white noise if it has zero mean, constant variance and is serially uncorrelated. 2.RandomWalk: Random walk means that the stochastic process is nonstationary and value of this period is highly related to the past values. For example, the stock price today may equal the yesterday ’s price plus a random shock. Random walk without drift can be expressed as t t t u y y +=-13.Akaike Information Criterion: AIC provide a way to select the better regression model among several models by comparing their forecast performance. The lower the AIC, the better the forecast performance will be. AIC will also be used to determine the lag length in ARDL approach.4.Jarque-Bera Statistic: The Jarque-Bera test is the test of normality. We first calculate the skewness and the kurtosis, and it is also based on the residual of the regression.The Jarque-Bera Statistic=)24)3(6(22-+K S n , where S is the skewness and K is the kurtosis,n is sample size, and for normal distribution, S=0, K=3, if JB statistic is not significantly different from zero, p value is quite low, we reject the null hypothesis that the residual is normally distributed.5.Chow Test: The test of structural change of the regression. The estimate of the parameter of the regression may not retain the same through the entire time period; we use the Chow test to test whether the relationship is stable and find the break point. It develop the F statistics=)/(/)(k N RSS mRSS RSS ur ur r --, the null hypothesis is the regression is stable.Part 2 Explain main purpose(s) of constructing following two models and making comments on the empirical results.

Spurious regression often shows a significant relationship between variables, but in fact, this kind of relationship does not exist.2.Q StatisticQ statistic is one of the tests of non-stationary.testing the joint hypothesis that all the up to certain lags are simultaneously equal to zero.3.Durbin-Watson StatisticThe Durbin-Watson statistic is a test for first-order serial correlation. More formally, the DW statistic measures the linear association between adjacent residuals from a regression model. The Durbin-Watson is a test of the hypothesis 0=ρ If there is no serial correlation, the DW statistic will be around 2.4.Schwarz CriterionIt is defined as:nRSSnSIC nk =,imposing a penalty for adding regressors to the model..Part 2 Explain the main purpose(s) of constructing the following two models and making comments on the empirical results (25marks)0:0,0k H k ρ=>221ˆ~()mk m k Q n k ρχ==∑k ρ1.
