Forecasting with macroeconomic structural equations models?
Hello, Is there a package or sample code that shows how to do ex ante forecasts with a macroeconomic structural equations model? I looked at the "sem" package, which lets you estimate e.g. Klein's model, but I'm not sure how to make simulations using the full set of equations, including the identities. Thank you, Ronaldo Carpio rncarpio at yahoo.com

hello to all. I am working on macroeconomic data series of India, which in a yearly basis. I am unable to convert my data frame into time series. kindly help me. also using zoo and xts packages. but they take only monthly observations.

read.xls question
I'm an R newbie and had a question about the read.xls function. I've heard that this is often not a reliable function to use for importing data. However, I have created numerous xls files which contain information about voter turnout and macroeconomic indicators in India. I'm writing a paper on the relationship between economic growth and voter turnout. This is the command I use: data <- read.xls("India.xls", header=TRUE) I get the following error message: Error: could not find function "read.xls" Anyone ha...

R & RStudio hardware Utilization
I am going to attend MSc Data Science in September, so I consider upgrading my system to be more efficient with my projects.I used RStudio for my Macroeconomics Undergraduate Thesis and I had a couple of loops which needed almost 30 minutes to occur. My system specifications are the following: - CPU: i7 4970k @ 4.0 GHz - RAM: 8GB DDR3 - Hard Drive: SSD M.2 950 PRO Since I have only used RStudio, is there any dramatic difference between R a...

spatial clusters
Dear all, I am looking for a clustering method usefull to classify the countries in some clusters taking account of: a) the geographical distance (in km) between countries and b) of some macroeconomic indicators (gdp, life expectancy...). Are there some packages in R usefull for this? Thanks a lot for your help, Dorina

Data from Stock and Watson or DAgostino papers?
Hello, I am interested in looking at the dataset used by Stock and Watson in their "Macroeconomic Forecasting Using Diffusion Indexes (J. of Business and Econ. Statistics, April 2002, pp158-161) or the set used by D'Agostino and Giannone "Comparing Alternative Predictors [...]"(October 2006) in R. Does anyone know if the R-code to retrieve these series from FRED (as opposed...

...on circular=F, the returned series don't have the correct dates. The removed dates are all at the beginning instead of half at the beginning and half at the end. It is particularly useful when we need to smooth the series (or remove a trend using a filter) before estimating a model (like in macroeconomics) or simply to plot the original series with the smoothed one. Of course, there is always the option of doing it by hand of the use circular=T and trim the series but I thought it would be nicer that way. Here is my suggestion (maybe not the nicest way to do it but it works) kernapply.ts &...

Question on Simultaneous Equations & Forecasting
....e., you are assessing the stability of your model. Because forecast-errors cumulate over time in a dynamic ex-post forecast, this is a rather good and stringent model-test. Incidentally, when you use simultaneous equation models on a larger scale (say, between 200-300 equations, like medium-sized macroeconomic models), the only route to go for, is by estimating your reaction equations separately and then putting all your pieces - including identities and/or technical equations - together in a format suitable for applying the Gauss-Seidel method. Hence, forget about 2SLS or 3SLS and Haavelmo-bias. Best...
