Behavior of the standard Dickey–Fuller test when there is a Fourier-form break under the null hypothesis
Abstract
We derive the null asymptotic distribution of the standard Dickey–Fuller test with the existence of an unnoticed Fourier component. The so-called converse Perron phenomenon might occur, but only in the trend-case with a low-frequency Fourier component and small error variance.We derive the null asymptotic distribution of the standard Dickey–Fuller test with the existence of an unnoticed Fourier component.
