摘要
This article investigates several U.S. macroeconomic time series for the presence of a unit root using a newly developed test. This test has stationarity as its null hypothesis, and the alternative is a unit-root process. The test is shown to be consistent, and its asymptotic null distribution is determined. Our findings contrast sharply with those obtained via the standard unit-root tests.
