  5. Granger Causality Tests • I(0) series To test whether X causes Y H0: 1 =β2=…p = 0 Ha: at least one i ≠ 0 And to test whether Y causes X H0:1=2=…=p=0 Ha: at least one iis not zero

  6. Granger Causality Tests • Cointegrated I(1) series To test whether X causes Y H0: 1 =β2=…p = 0 Ha: at least one i ≠ 0 And to test whether Y causes X H0:1=2=…=p=0 Ha: at least one iis not zero
