Asymptotic inference for AR(1) processes with (nonnormal) stable errors. IV. A note on the case of a negative unit root

  • J. Mijnheer
Article

Abstract

In this note, we show that the limit distribution of the least-squares estimator in the case of a negative unit root is different from the limit distribution in the case of a positive unit root. Thus, the infinite-variance case is different from the finite-variance case.
