ECO 561SEM - Econ Fluctuatn & Forecast This is an introductory course for time series analysis with an emphasis on prediction. Forecasting is important in decision making process of economic agents, because of the simple fact: most economic variables of interest vary randomly over time. Topics include: stationary ARMA processes, forecasting, covariance-stationary vector processes, vector auto-regressions, models of non-stationary time series, and processes with deterministic time trends, univariate processes with unit roots, unit roots in multivariate time series, co-integration, and time series models of hetero-skedasticity. Credits: 3
Requisites: Prerequisite: ECO 505, 507 and 580.
