Abstract

This paper proposes a new approach to identifying the effective cointegration rank in high-dimensional unit-root (HDUR) time series from a prediction perspective using reduced-rank regression. For a HDUR process xt ∈ R N and a stationary series yt ∈ R p of interest, our goal is to predict future values of yt using xt and lagged values of yt . The proposed framework consists of a two-step estimation procedure. First, the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is used to identify all cointegrating vectors of xt . Second, the co-integrated stationary series are used as regressors, together with some lagged variables of yt , to predict yt . The estimated reduced rank is then defined as the effective coitegration rank of xt . Under the scenario that the autoregressive coefficient matrices are sparse (or of low-rank), we apply the Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) (or the reduced-rank techniques) to estimate the autoregressive coefficients when the dimension involved is high. Theoretical properties of the estimators are established under the assumptions that the dimensions p and N and the sample size T → ∞. Both simulated and real examples are used to illustrate the proposed framework, and the empirical application suggests that the proposed procedure fares well in predicting stock returns.
