1. The data file E2.txt on has two quarterly, seasonally adjusted U.S. investment series. From these, make the variables
• ∇y1 = first differences of fixed investment
• ∇y2 = first differences of change in business inventories.
Use these data series from 1947-1968 only to answer the following questions:
(a) Plot the two series and comment on their stationarity.
(b) Test the hypothesis that ∇y2 does not Granger cause ∇y1.
(c) Estimate a VAR(p) for these data.
(d) Estimate the relevant impulse responses over 8 quarters. Report related measures of uncertainty and interepret the impulse responses.
