TLDR
In this paper, a simple alternative where the standard ADF regressions are augmented with the cross section averages of lagged levels and first-differences of the individual series is proposed, and it is shown that the individual CADF statistics are asymptotically similar and do not depend on the factor loadings.Abstract:
A number of panel unit root tests that allow for cross section dependence have been proposed in the literature that use orthogonalization type procedures to asymptotically eliminate the cross dependence of the series before standard panel unit root tests are applied to the transformed series. In this paper we propose a simple alternative where the standard ADF regressions are augmented with the cross section averages of lagged levels and first-differences of the individual series. New asymptotic results are obtained both for the individual CADF statistics, and their simple averages. It is shown that the individual CADF statistics are asymptotically similar and do not depend on the factor loadings. The limit distribution of the average CADF statistic is shown to exist and its critical values are tabulated. Small sample properties of the proposed test are investigated by Monte Carlo experiments. The proposed test is applied to a panel of 17 OECD real exchange rate series as well as to log real earnings of households in the PSID data.read more

Revisiting the oil price and stock market nexus: A nonlinear Panel ARDL approach
Afees A. Salisu,Kazeem Isah +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors re-examine the relationship between oil price and stock prices in oil exporting and oil importing countries in the following distinct ways: first, they account for possible nonlinearities in the relationship in order to quantify the asymmetric response of stock prices of these two categories to positive and negative oil price changes.

Panel Unit Root Tests in the Presence of a Multifactor Error Structure
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors extend the cross sectionally augmented panel unit root test proposed by Pesaran (2007) to the case of a multifactor error structure, which exploits information regarding the unobserved factors that are shared by other time series in addition to the variable under consideration.

The linkages between natural resources, human capital, globalization, economic growth, financial development, and ecological footprint: The moderating role of technological innovations
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors investigated whether technological innovation, natural resource consumption, globalization, economic growth, human capital development, and financial development influence the ecological footprint figures in 73 developing countries over the period from 1990 to 2016.

Energy consumption, economic growth and environmental degradation in OECD countries
TL;DR: In this article, the authors find that economic growth and energy consumption patterns contribute to the enhancement of countries' environmental performance levels, highlighting the necessity to promote sustainable development through a coexistence rather than through a trade-off mechanism.

Globalization and carbon emissions: Is there any role of agriculture value-added, financial development, and natural resource rent in the aftermath of COP21?
TL;DR: The empirical findings show that economic globalization, financial development, and natural resources increase carbon emissions, in contrast, agriculture value-added decreases carbon emissions.

Testing for a Unit Root in Time Series Regression
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed new tests for detecting the presence of a unit root in quite general time series models, which accommodate models with a fitted drift and a time trend so that they may be used to discriminate between unit root nonstationarity and stationarity about a deterministic trend.

Testing for unit roots in heterogeneous panels
TL;DR: In this article, a unit root test for dynamic heterogeneous panels based on the mean of individual unit root statistics is proposed, which converges in probability to a standard normal variate sequentially with T (the time series dimension) →∞, followed by N (the cross sectional dimension)→∞.

Unit root tests in panel data: asymptotic and finite-sample properties
TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider pooling cross-section time series data for testing the unit root hypothesis, and they show that the power of the panel-based unit root test is dramatically higher, compared to performing a separate unit-root test for each individual time series.

Time series analysis
TL;DR: A ordered sequence of events or observations having a time component is called as a time series, and some good examples are daily opening and closing stock prices, daily humidity, temperature, pressure, annual gross domestic product of a country and so on.
