DE"INITION O"
STATIONARY A time series Yt is stationary if itsmean and variance are constant
over time, and if the covariancebetween two values from theseries depends only on the lengthof time seperating the two values,and not the actual times at whichthe variables are observed.

Stationary and non-stationary variablesmust be distinguished.
Stationary is important because if the
series is non-stationary then all types ofthe typical results of the classicalregression analysis are not valid.
It is crucial for the properties of standardestimation and testing procedures

SP#RIO#S RE$RESSION
Regressions with non-stationaryseries may have no meaning and aretherefore called ‘spurious regression
!"ranger # $ewbold, %&'(). *ecause both Yt and +t contain a
stochastic trend, the S estimator
tends to nd a signicant correlationbetween the two series, even if theyare completely unrelated

/he results from this regression areli0ely to be characteri1ed by afairly high R2 statistic, highlycorrelated residuals, a signicantvalue for and a low 3urbin-4atson!34) statistics.
/herefore, the usual t 5 and F 5tests on the regression parametersmay be very misleading.

#NIT ROOT TESTS
/here are many tests fordetermining whether a series isstationary or nonstationary.
A unit root test can be tested using6 3ic0ey-7uller !37) test, Augmented 3ic0ey-7uller !A37) test, 8hillips-8erron test and 9wiat0ows0i et al. test.
