Abstract: It is widely acknowledged that Herman Melville's Moby-Dick has been inspired by a variety of sources. One of these is the legend of Mocha Dick, about which Jeremiah N. Reynolds published the earliest known account in 1839. In his narration, Reynolds describes an evening he spent on board an unspecified whaling ship off Mocha Island, Chile, during which the whaler's first mate claimed to have killed Mocha Dick on a previous whaling voyage. This essay aims to substantiate the setting of Reynolds's account, in an attempt to identify the alleged murderer of Mocha Dick and eventually to investigate his previous voyages to seek any evidence of a large and / or white whale killed near Mocha Island. Overall, Reynolds's text was found to be consistent with the sources consulted: primarily, the logbook of the schooner Penguin . Reynolds's narration was identified as having taken place on April 3 or 4, 1830, on board the whaling ship Cincinnatus , which was built in New York in 1818. The identity of the whaling ship's first mate, however, could not be established due to a lack of supporting documentation, which in turn prevents further investigation into the origins of Mocha Dick's legend.

AbstractQuestioning the well-known interpretation of the Pequod as a microcosm, this article focuses on passages in Melville’s Moby-Dick; Or, The Whale in which the ship serves as an arena for testing and questioning various definitions of the ‘world.’ Starting with Ishmael’s claim that he wants to “see the world” by travelling aboard the Pequod, this article isolates different meanings of ‘world’ as they are invoked by the text – pointing to a meaning beyond the cartography of the planet earth. As will be shown, Moby-Dick distinguishes between the extrinsic perspective on planet earth, as cartography applies it, and contrasts it with a level, intrinsic perspectives that one adopts standing on the deck of a ship, looking out on the ocean. The intrinsic perspective can furthermore be related to the object of Ahab’s hunt, the white whale, which carries another understanding of ‘world’ as a deep space that cannot be grasped by cartography. In a final step, the crew and its composition of international members will be analyzed by focusing on the metaphor of the “common continent of men,” which surprisingly raises serious doubts about the unity of the Pequod’s crew.

Una dimostrazione potente di quello che il teatro può ‘far vedere’ lo offre lo spettacolo prodotto dalla compagnia dell’Elfo per la regia di Elio De Capitani, scegliendo di riportare in scena Moby Dick – Rehearsed, ‘adattamento’ teatrale del Moby Dick di Melville scritto da Orson Welles. Come ricorda De Capitani, Orson Welles «preferì non dare al pubblico né mare, né balene né navi». In questa ambizione ostinata sta la prova, perché il tentativo di trasformare un romanzo polifonico come Moby Dick in un dramma teatrale equivale a cacciare la Balena bianca.
A powerful demonstration of what theatre can 'make us see' is offered by the show produced by the dell'Elfo theatre company under the direction of Elio De Capitani, who chose to stage, under the title Moby Dick alla Prova, Orson Welles' theatrical 'adaptation' of Melville's novel Moby Dick. As recalled by De Capitani, Orson Welles “preferred to give the public neither sea, nor whales, nor ships”. In this obstinate ambition lies the feat itself, because the attempt to transform a polyphonic novel such as Moby Dick into a theatrical play is tantamount to hunting the White Whale.

Abstract: Written after the proto-modernist novels Moby-Dick and Pierre , both of which elicited censure from contemporary critics, Herman Melville’s “Benito Cereno” is recognized as an enigmatic and symbolic work that invites deep reflection on the status of literature, language, and signification. However, critics have not presented “Benito Cereno,” and more specifically the dramatic narrative that occurs aboard the slave ship San Dominick , as a crucial text vis-à-vis Melville’s experimental progression toward the genesis of the modern novel. This essay argues that in “Benito Cereno,” Melville avoided the bold stylistic unconventionality found in Moby-Dick and Pierre and continued exploring innovative prose fiction by inscribing his proto-modernist literary aesthetic into an enacted text encountered by a character who represents an uncomprehending traditional reader. In this analysis of “Benito Cereno,” the San Dominick narrative illustrates how a new literature can be written and how it must be read, such that the novella provides crucial insight into Melville’s exceptional contribution to the proto-modernist literary aesthetics that were emerging during the transition from realism to modernism.

Abstract Foreign direct investment and Trade were regarded as an important elements in enhancing economic development. This study used some time series econometric tests including the Augmented Dickey – Fuller (ADF) unit root test developed by Dickey – Fuller, stationary test developed by Kwiatkowski-Philips-Schmidt-Shin (KPSS), Johansen co-integration test and Granger causality test to analyse the connection between foreign direct investment, trade and economic growth in Niger. The tests results showed a bilateral relationship between trade and economic growth and a unidirectional causal relationship between trade and foreign direct investment with direction from trade to foreign direct investment. The long run effect tests revealed that trade has a positive effect on economic growth while foreign direct investment has a negative effect on economic growth in Niger. On average, ceteris paribus, the coefficients are statistically significant at 5% level.

We investigate the stationarity property of the accumulated Ethernet traffic series. We applied several widely used stationarity and unit root tests, such as Dickey-Fuller test and its augmented version, Phillips-Perron test, as well as the Kwiatkowski-Phillips-Schmidt-Shin test and some of its generalizations, to the assessment of the stationarity of the traffic traces at the different time scales. The quantitative results in this research provide evidence that when the time scale increases, the accumulated traffic series are more stationary.

This study aims to analyze a psychological conflict experienced by the crew of the Essex ship in the film in the heart of the sea (2015) which is based on the legend of the Moby Dick. In this study, researchers used the behavioristic of John Broadus Watson. This research is included in qualitative research with a focus on the relation between literature and psychology by means of psychological criticism in categories such as psychoanalysis the author, reader and text also the Psychology and the creative process, Psychoanalysis and biography by using psychoanalysis. The data analysis technique in this research is descriptive analysis. From this study, found findings based on the formulation of the problem. First, what behavior can be observed in the psychological conflicts that occur in the crew of the Essex ship. . According to Watson, the only meaningful data in psychology is behavior that can be observed and measured objectively. Second, how the environment can generate the behavior of the characters. Watson believed that behavior is the result of the environmental factors that influence an individual’s learning and experience. Watson emphasized the role of conditioning, or the process of learning through association, in shaping behavior. What the crew of the Essex ship experienced in the movie "In The Heart of The Sea" (2015) was not only internal factors between other individuals, but also external factors such as natural conditions, culture and even time. Third, to identify the process of stimulus and response from the character of this film. Watson's theory of behaviorism points that all behavior is learned through the process of conditioning. This process involves the formation of associations between stimuli and response

This study examines the relationship between stock prices and exchange rates of three selected SAARC countries including Pakistan, India and Srilanka; using monthly data from period of January 1999 to December 2015. This study employs statistical techniques of Augmented Dickey Fuller (ADF), Phillips Perron (PP), unit root tests, and Johansen’s Co-integration test to determine long run equilibrium association ship between stock price indices and exchange rates. The study finds out no Co-integration between the two variables, hence no long run association is existing between them. This finding implies that investors in these markets are having more opportunities for diversifying their portfolios. However, using Granger Causality and impulse response tests, it finds significant short-run feedback effects, as stock prices Granger cause exchange rates in case of Pakistan and unidirectional causality flows from exchange rates to stock prices in case of Srilanka but no proof of causality running in either direction in case of India. Hence the findings for Pakistan and Srilanka have crucial policy implications.

Abstract Authoritarian leadership is a challenge for organizational analysis. The perplexity regarding how we have accepted its occurrence various times throughout history runs through the thinking of intellectuals such as Adorno, Habermas, Sloterdijk, and Arendt. A complementary way of studying it is through literature. Literature has enormous potential for interpreting the world and, given the creativity of its authors, it can deal with complex themes, characters, and events, with a freedom that, due to its methodological rigor, science often does not allow. As organizations are also constituted discursively, the textual elements of literature give us an epistemological freedom, enabling analyses that can address traditional organizational topics, such as leadership, in another way. This theoretical essay proposes to use a classic of literature, the novel Moby-Dick , to conduct a critical discourse analysis, based on Norman Fairclough, of the neoliberal-authoritarian monomaniac leadership of Paulo Guedes, the Minister for the Economy of Jair Bolsonaro’s government. The objective is to demonstrate the potential and richness of using literature combined with discourse analysis to understand organizational phenomena. The interpretation will be guided by the leadership style of the character Ahab, ship captain of the Pequod, who as a result of his obsession with hunting the giant white sperm whale, Moby Dick, leads his vessel to a tragic end, similar to what has occurred to Brazil due to the hatred toward the State present in Paulo Guedes’ discourses.

The aim of this study is to determine the relations between the added values of the manufacturing industry and the services sector and GDP using time series models. In this study, in which the annual data of 1960-2020 for Turkiye are used, Harvey et al.

According to the results of the analysis, no cointegrated relationship was found between the added values of the manufacturing industry and the services sector and GDP in Turkiye. The fact that there is no cointegrated relationship between the three variables means that the added value of the manufacturing industry and the added value of the services sector do not sufficiently support economic growth in Turkiye. It is important for policy makers to implement practices in order to increase the effects of these variables, which are related to each other, on economic growth, that is, the added value of the manufacturing industry and the services sector.

Commonly used unit-root tests in time-series analysis—such as the Dickey–Fuller and Phillips–Perron tests—use a null hypothesis that the series contains a unit root. Such tests have low power against the alternative—when a time series is near integrated or highly autoregressive—implying that they do poorly in distinguishing such a series from having a unit root. Kwiatkowski et al. (1992, Journal of Econometrics 54: 159–178) introduced the Kwiatkowski, Phillips, Schmidt, and Shin test, in which the null hypothesis is that the series is stationary, to deal with this problem. One shortcoming of the presently available Kwiatkowski, Phillips, Schmidt, and Shin test in Stata is that it uses asymptotic critical values regardless of the sample size. This poses a problem in that researchers—especially social scientists—are often presented with short time series. I introduce kpsstest, a command that extends the previous implementation by including an option for a zero-mean-stationary null hypothesis, generating sample and test-specific critical values, and reporting appropriate p-values.

The Republic of Turkey is located at the crossroads of many trade and investment routes, converging East with the West and North with the South. However, Turkey is not self-sufficient with respect to capital formation. As a result, it wishes to obtain the deficient part of the capital stock from foreign sources, mainly from foreign direct investment (FDI). The purpose of this paper is to examine the FDI inflows to the Turkish Republic and its effect on economic growth by employing the augmented Dickey-Fuller test, Phillips-Perron, Kwiatkowski, Phillips, Schmidt, Shin unit root tests, and least squares method. The results indicate that FDI inflows to Turkey bring about economic growth.

In this note we derive the local asymptotic power function of the standardized averaged Dickey–Fuller panel unit root statistic of Im, Pesaran, and Shin (2003, Journal of Econometrics, 115, 53–74), allowing for heterogeneous deterministic intercept terms. We consider the situation where the deviation of the initial observation from the underlying intercept term in each individual time series may not be asymptotically negligible. We find that power decreases monotonically as the magnitude of the initial conditions increases, in direct contrast to what is usually observed in the univariate case. Finite-sample simulations confirm the relevance of this result for practical applications, demonstrating that the power of the test can be very low for values of T and N typically encountered in practice.

<p>The random walk hypothesis is an important area of research in finance and many tools have been proposed to investigate the behaviour of the fluctuations in stock prices. However, a detail study on emerging Asian stock markets which employ the various unit root tests has not been done. In this paper, we employ six different unit root tests such as the Augmented Dickey and Fuller test (1979), Phillips and Perron test (1988), Kwiatkowski-Phillips-Schmidt-Shin test(1992), Dickey-Fuller GLS (ERS) test (1996), Elliot-Rothenberg-Stock Point-Optimal test (1996) and Ng and Perron (2001) unit root tests on 10 emerging Asian stock markets to detect for the presence of a random walk in stock prices. We have conducted the unit root tests during different sub-sample time periods of global financial crisis to check for robustness. To be specific, we have found that during the overall sample period (2001-2015) 8 out of 10 Asian stock markets and during the pre-crisis period (2001-2007) all the 10 Asian stock market prices do follow random walk according to the unit root tests under consideration. However, during the crisis & post-crisis period (2008-2015) we have found only 5 out of 10 Asian markets follow the random walk movement based on unit root tests.</p>

This study explores the methods to de-trend the smooth structural break processes while conducting the unit root tests. The two most commonly applied approaches for modelling smooth structural breaks namely the smooth transition and the Fourier functions are considered. We perform a sequence of power comparisons among alternative unit root tests that accommodate smooth or sharp structural breaks. The power experiments demonstrate that the unit root tests utilizing the Fourier function lead to unexpected results. Furthermore, through simulation studies, we investigate the source of such unexpected outcomes. Moreover, we provide the asymptotic distribution of two recently proposed unit root tests, namely Fourier-Augmented Dickey–Fuller (FADF) and Fourier-Kapetanios, Shin and Shell (FKSS), which are not given in the original studies. Lastly, we find that the selection of de-trending function is pivotal for unit root testing with structural breaks.

SUMMARY `Forehead to forehead I meet thee, this third time, Moby Dick!' [Ahab (Melville, 1851)] Herman Melville's fictional portrayal of the sinking of the Pequodwas inspired by instances in which large sperm whales sank whaling ships by ramming the ships with their heads. Observations of aggression in species of the four major clades of cetacean and the artiodactyl outgroup suggest that head-butting during male—male aggression is a basal behavior for cetaceans. We hypothesize that the ability of sperm whales to destroy stout wooden ships, 3-5 times their body mass, is a product of specialization for male—male aggression. Specifically, we suggest that the greatly enlarged and derived melon of sperm whales, the spermaceti organ, evolved as a battering ram to injure an opponent. To address this hypothesis, we examined the correlation between relative melon size and the level of sexual dimorphism in body size among cetaceans. We also modeled impacts between two equal-sized sperm whales to determine whether it is physically possible for the spermaceti organ to function as an effective battering ram. We found (i) that the evolution of relative melon size in cetaceans is positively correlated with the evolution of sexual dimorphism in body size and (ii) that the spermaceti organ of a charging sperm whale has enough momentum to seriously injure an opponent. These observations are consistent with the hypothesis that the spermaceti organ has evolved to be a weapon used in male—male aggression.

For so many times, Far East Asian liquid natural gas (LNG) buyers have been using price linked to crude oil-indexed, now they need to find another alternative pricing formula for their crucial energy supply as a better price structure that could reflect the market is needed. LNG spot price is expected to be the pillar for the future LNG trading, especially for Far East Asia Market. As less and less long-term contracts are signed in the Far East Asia Market, this creates an additional demand for the LNG in the spot market, while it raises some issues about the presence of different LNG pricing mechanisms. Most of the LNG spot prices in Asia are indexed to the relatively low natural gas prices in Atlantic Basin. Furthermore, the advancement of drilling technology in the US drives down its natural gas prices, resulting in price discrepancies between Asian LNG spot and East Asian LNG prices. This study investigates whether there is a price linkage between Asian LNG spot and East Asian LNG prices. This study comprehends 91 observations collected from January 2010 to July 2017. Johansen co-integration tests were carried out to examine the existence of long-run relationship on the spot, Japanese and South Korean LNG prices. The Augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADF), Phillip-Perron (PP), and Kwiatkowski-Phillips-Schmidt-Shin (KPSS) unit root tests were conducted first before proceeding to the co-integration tests. The results showed that Asian LNG spot prices did not have price linkage for monthly averages of Japanese and South Korean LNG prices. The analyses also indicated that Taiwan LNG markets move together with Asian LNG spot markets. As a conclusion, the results inferred that supply dependency on LNG spot cargoes governed the price linkage among these Asian LNG markets. The use of gas indexed LNG price mechanism did not reflect the economic fundamentals in Asia-Pacific Basin.

This article focuses on the Oil Age, which began 150 years ago in Pennsylvania and forecasts suggest that it has only few decades left for extinction. In today’s world, much of the fire comes from petroleum, which was first extracted from the ground for commercial purposes 150 years ago. Whale oil was prized for best light and low soot, but production peaked in the 1840s. This was the decade when Herman Melville sailed on a whaling ship, which inspired Moby Dick. The modern Oil Age can be traced to a well near Oil Creek in the northwestern Pennsylvania community of Titusville, where an enterprise managed by Edwin Drake discovered petroleum on August 27, 1859. It was not the first strike of oil in history, but it was the first that intended to exploit oil commercially as fuel. The petrochemical industry that uses mostly oil and natural gas for feedstock started at the beginning of the 20th century in the form of fertilizers and synthetic plastics and polymers. Today our vehicles have better tires that have resulted from using synthetic polymers rather than natural rubber from trees.

Purpose The purpose of the paper is to examine the linkages between exchange rate and interest rate in India using quarterly data from Q1 of 1996 to Q4 of 2014. Design/methodology/approach Stationarity properties of data are checked using the Augmented Dickey–Fuller (ADF), Dickey–Fuller test with GLS de-trending (DF-GLS) and Kwiatkowski-Phillips-Schmidt-Shin (KPSS) tests and Perron’s unit root test with structural breaks. Johansen Juselius and Gregory Hansen tests are applied to assess cointegration, and block exogeneity test is used to detect causality among variables. Findings The study finds long-run relationship among interest rate, rupee–dollar exchange rate, capital flows, intervention, inflation differential, money supply differentials, output differentials and trade-balance differentials. However, the interest rate does not explain movements in the exchange rate, directly and indirectly, via capital flows. Intervention by the Central Banks to stabilize exchange rate does not have implications for movements in interest rate. Research limitations/implications The study finds capital flows to be insensitive with respect to interest rates and hence thwarts International Monetary Fund ’s (IMF) claim of using interest rates as a tool to stabilize exchange rate. The much-debated conflict between exchange-rate stabilization and control over interest rates also does not hold up to the empirical reality of India. Originality/value The study augments the existing literature by taking into account the problem of structural break in the relationship between interest rate and exchange rate. Three measures of interest rate are used to assess the robustness of results adding to their credibility compared to previous studies.

Empleamos una serie de datos no explotados anteriormente para calcular el tipo de cambio real respecto al dólar para México durante 1930.01-1960.12 a fin de probarla paridad de poder de compra (PPC). Los resultados iniciales de la prueba de Dickey-Fuller aumentada (DFA) muestran un débil apoyo para la PPC. La prueba de Kapetanios, Shin, and Snell (KSS), con otra hipótesis de reversión no lineal a la media, muestra bastante apoyo para la PPC. Sin embargo, encontramos que los residuos de estas pruebas presentan no normalidad o heteroscedasticidad. Usandoel enfoque de wild bootstrap, calculamos los valores críticos de la distribución empírica de los residuos y reevaluamos los estadísticos de prueba empleando estos nuevos valores críticos. Concluimos que hay evidencia de ajuste no lineal a la PPC para 1930.01-1951.12, pero esta evidencia no se mantiene durante 1952.01-1960.12, el periodo de sustitución de importaciones en México.

In this paper, we provide evidence that the five variables used in the study were nonlinear in nature, while finding a better Markov-switching model. The study used dailydata obtained from the Johannesburg Stock Exchange over the period from January 2010 to December 2012. An extension of Markov Switching with autoregressive model was used for empirical analysis. Prior to using this model, the series were tested for nonlinear unit root with modified Kapetanois-Shin-Snell nonlinear Augmented Dickey-Fuller (KSS-NADF) test which successfully provided positive results.Other preliminary tests selected the first lag as optimal and confirmed that stock prices may switch between two regimes. Further empirical findings proved that stock prices can be successfully modelled with Markov Switching Autoregressive model of order one. First National bank was found to have 99.64% longer stock price stability if adjustments regards tofinancialpolicies are made. Capitec Bank was the least favoured among the banks.

Economic growth is indispensable for the development of a country and welfare of its citizens. Economic activities can be improved with the enhancement of business sectors within its structure. Furthermore, exportation is a substantial means of reinforcing economic growth. In this research, the correlation between the fresh fruit & vegetable exportation and the economic growth of the Republic of Turkey is examined. Certain econometric methods as Augmented Dickey Fuller (ADF) test, Unit Root test, Phillips-Perron (PP) Unit Root test, Kwiatkowski, Phillips, Schmidt, Shin (KPSS) Unit Root test, Vector Auto-regression Analysis (VAR), Co-integration Analysis, Error Correction Model (VECM), Impulse-response Functions and Variance Decomposition Analysis are employed to research the correlation for the 2004 Q1-2015 Q4 period. It was concluded that the exportation of fresh fruits and vegetables have a favorable contribution to the economic growth of the Republic of Turkey in the long-run.

Scholars have long sought a blueprint that cohesively ties together various events and characters in ‘Moby Dick’; a 'key' that will unlock its secrets and allow a greater understanding of the novel. After 150 years, we have Melville’s key: the sky. In his PhD thesis, John F. Birk suggested that, as the Pequod sails from one ocean to the next in search of the great white whale, it sails through the twelve traditional constellations of the zodiac. Birk identifies thirteen characters with zodiacal constellations, and a few non-zodiacal constellations with individual chapters. However, Melville’s genius goes further in his use of astronomical phenomena than Birk suggests. The Pequod leaves Nantucket at noon on December 25, 1838 and is destroyed by the white whale at sunset January 4, 1840. His use of six of the nine 'gams' or meetings between the Pequod with other whale ships on the high seas provide the necessary planetary data to precisely determine, for the first time, the year at sea. The white whale provides the day of destruction and constellations the hour. Further, Melville was able to relate phases of the moon, solar eclipses, comets, meteor showers, constellations, stars and other celestial events of that year to story events, structure and characters. Using this new understanding, one can see ‘Moby Dick’ – and indeed the sky –as Herman Melville did. No longer must it remain his '…most admired and least understood novel'.

Logistics is a considerable issue for the development of a state and its economy. Logistics is involved the forward and backward flows of goods and services from the point of production and point of consumption, and it is considerable for the development of the economy of a country. Yet, the aim of this paper is to review the correlation between the logistics sector of the Turkish Republic and its correlation to economic growth by employing Augmented Dickey Fuller-ADF, Phillips-Perron (PP), Kwiatkowski, Phillips, Schmidt, Shin (KPSS), Elliott, Rothenberg and Stock Point Optimal, and Ng-Perron unit root tests. As a result, there is a bidirectional positive causality between logistics sector and economic growth in the long-term, but there is no causality for short term. Moreover, the novelty of this paper is that it is the most up-to-date study to research logistics and its correlation to economics in Turkey.

The article solves the problem of constructing an econometric model (based on time series of macroeconomic indicators) that reflects the relationship between changes in the current account of the balance of payments and GDP dynamics (on the example of the Republic of Azerbaijan).In order to assess the correctness of the application of mathematical and statistical methods for analyzing the impact of foreign economic activity on the final results of the country's economic activity, the constructed model was tested. So, to test the hypotheses about the normal distribution of the series, the Jarque–Bera test, the augmented Dickey–Fuller test (ADF), the Kwiatkowski–Phillips–Schmidt–Shin (KPSS) test were used, and histograms and correlograms were constructed.In the process of studying the time series of the indicators under consideration, their non-stationarity was revealed both according to the results of descriptive statistics, the Jarque–Bera test, histograms, plots of the sample autocorrelation function (ACF) and partial autocorrelation function (PACF), and according to the Dickey–Fuller test. The transition to absolute increments, that is, to the first differences, was applied. In addition, the Johansen test was performed to identify cointegration relationships. Based on its results, when comparing linear and quadratic trends with similar characteristics, a linear one was chosen, indicating the presence of a cointegration relationship. After carrying out the Trace and Maximum Eigenvalue tests, an alternative hypothesis about the presence of one cointegration vector was accepted.The results obtained allow us to conclude that the relationship between the indicators of the current account of the balance of payments and Azerbaijan's GDP is of a long-term nature. They can also serve as a basis for building an error correction model.

The nexus between foreign direct investment and economic growth has long been among the most debated issues in macroeconomics. Some studies find a positive link between the two factors, but others find no evidence. This current research fills the gap by analysing the causal nexus between foreign direct investment and economic growth in Indonesia for the period 1970-2018. Indonesia as a developing country is one of the largest recipients of FDI flow; hence the study on the impact of FDI on the economic growth is very much important. This current research employs a contemporary time-series procedure, involving several unit-root tests namely Augmented-Dickey-Fuller (ADF), Phillips-Perron (PP), Kwiatkowski-Phillips-Schmidt-Shin (KPSS), and Lee-Strazicich (LS), an Auto-Regressive-Distributed-Lag (ARDL) bounds-testing method for cointegration, and Granger causality test. The findings provide evidence of long-run and short-run causal direction from GDP to FDI. In contrast, FDI generates only a short-run relationship on GDP. The Granger causality test confirms the finding in ARDL that there is a unidirectional causality running from GDP to FDI.

Abstract Potential Evapotranspiration (PET) functions as an indicator to estimate the amount of water loss to the atmosphere. Over the years, global climate change has eventually led to a change of PET capacity and this has affected the agricultural sector and water resource management. The objective of this study was to determine the best PET estimation method as well as to carry out a trend analysis and stationarity test of PET in Peninsular Malaysia. The Mann–Kendall (MK) test and Sen's slope estimator were applied for the trend analysis while the Augmented Dickey–Fuller (ADF) test and Kwiatkowski–Phillips–Schmidt–Shin (KPSS) test were applied for the stationarity test. The findings showed that Pulau Langkawi and Kuantan stations exhibited increasing trends while Bayan Lepas station exhibited decreasing trends for the daily, monthly, and annual PET time series. The daily, monthly, and annual PET time series at Bayan Lepas, Ipoh, Subang and Muadzam Shah stations were found to be stationary. Overall, the PET trend was found to be higher in the coastal regions and stationary in the mountainous region.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to examine the predictability of remittances in individual developing countries. It achieves this objective by testing for mean reversion (i.e. stationarity) in the monthly remittance series reported to the World Bank by 21 developing countries. Design/methodology/approach – Unit root tests on remittance time series are undertaken using three tests – the augmented Dickey-Fuller test, the Phillip-Peron test and the Kwiatkowshi, Phillips, Schmidt and Shin test. Stationarity of series in levels would indicate mean reversion and predictability of remittances. Findings – The paper finds significant evidence of mean reversion and hence predictability in remittance inflows in 17 developing countries. Practical implications – Remittance inflows, which have become an important source of external finance for many developing countries, are not random flows but a stable and predictable stream of financial flows. Originality/value – Prior research has focused on volatility of remittances in comparison with other capital flows and then inferred stability from them having lower volatility. Using available monthly data, this paper is the first to directly test for mean reversion and hence predictability of remittances.

Over the decades, technology has become an essential indicator to actively participate in the economic growth of nations. The usage of technology and e-commerce had created a new pathway to improve trade in Asian countries. This study seeks to verify the linkage between e-commerce and international trade. The annual data for panel data regression analysis were collected from the World Bank covering 38 Asian countries for 11 years, from 2010 to 2020. This study applied a set of estimation procedures such as descriptive statistic, correlation matrix, stationary test (Levin–Lin–Chu test, Breitung test, Augmented Dickey Fuller test, Harris–Tzavalis and Im–Pesaran–Shin test), Kao cointegration test, autocorrelation test and heteroskedasticity test. The two-step system Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) estimator was employed for dynamic panel data analysis. Empirical findings show that e-commerce significantly impacts the international trade of Asian countries. Governments of Asian countries should employ policies related to telecommunication technologies for e-commerce improvement and realize/ reap potential benefits from international trade.

Leaning on the loan pricing theory, this study provided empirical proof of the existence of adverse selection in the Nigerian credit market using the interrelation between the lending rate and non-performing loans as a decision factor. The paper employed Augmented Dickey Fuller (ADF), Phillips Perron (PP), and Kwiatkowski–Phillips–Schmidt–Shin (KPSS) for stationarity tests, Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) Bound Test for cointegration and an ARDL model for the regression analyses using quarterly data. The results of the analyses showed a positive and consequential link connecting non-performing loans and lending rates, proving the existence of adverse selection in the Nigerian credit market in the short-run and long-run. Based on the results, the study recommends that the apex bank implement a price ceiling in the credit market. Banks and other financial institutions should properly define their lending rates given their cost of funds and other operational expenses. And hence, carefully select viable borrowers from the credit market that suit the bank’s credit policy rather than adjust the lending rate up to compensate for higher risk.

In the era of globalization, financial development plays a key role in socioeconomic and environmental development. However, its adverse consequences on human life, environmental hazards, and high energy consumption cannot be ignored. Thus, this study investigates the non-linear relationship between globalization, financial development, and energy consumption for BRICS economies. In doing so, we have applied second-generation tests to identify cross-sectional dependence in the data. Cross-sectional augmented Dickey-Fuller (CADF) and Cross-sectional Im-Pesaran Shin (CIPS) have been performed to find the stationary level of variables. The long-term equilibrium link between the investigated variables has been established in continuance using the Westerlund Cointegration test. The Dynamic Seemingly Unrelated Regression (DSUR) indicates that U-shaped relationships exist for financial development and globalization with energy consumption. Conversely, there is an inverted U-shaped relationship exist between economic growth and energy consumption in BRICS. The Dumitrescu-Hurlin panel causality test findings show that a unidirectional link runs from energy consumption to financial development, economic growth to energy consumption, and globalization towards energy usage. Important policy implications have also been discussed.

Some historians think that the expulsion of the KPM (Koninklijke Paketvaart Maatschappij/Royal Packet Company) from Indonesian waters in 1957 had a disastrous impact on the inter-island shipping and trade in this largest insular region in the world. It is assumed that the Indonesian people did not have the capacity to overcome such serious problems generated by the absence of KPM from their waters, as financial inadequacy in buying new ships to replace the KPM fleet, the non-existence of experience and managerial skill in operating a modern, big shipping company and the like. Considering how big the role of KPM in the Indonesian inter-island shipping was, it is also imagined that the expulsion of this company would be a precondition of economic stagnation in Indonesia, because there was no shipping which had adequate experience to take over the role of KPM. As Dick states ‘Suspension of KPM sailing in December 1957 was the end of an efficient inter-island shipping (in Indonesia)’.

This study investigates the nexus between CO2 emission, trade, Gross domestic product (GDP), and tourism in Pakistan during 1990-2019. We examined the asymmetric relationship between CO2 emission, international trade, Gross domestic product (GDP), and international tourism number of arrivals in Pakistan. Data Stationarity has been tested using the Augmented Dicky Fuller (ADF), Kwiatkowski-Phillips-Schmidt-Shin (KPSS), and Phillips-Perron (PP) tests for unit roots. We used the NARDL technique. Then a Granger Causality helped estimate the relationship between these environmental variables. If there is an asymmetric association between these variables, we estimate the non-linear auto-regressive distributed lag, which is the most applicable econometric estimate. The ARDL technique can potentially explore the dynamic nexus between CO2 emission, tourism, GDP, and trade. Our findings suggest a dynamic relationship between tourism, trade, CO2 emission, and GDP from Pakistan's perspective. The outcomes reveal that negative and positive shocks to trade, GDP, and tourism affect CO2 emissions in the short and long term. The Granger Causality findings also determined that causality is directed from Tourism toward CO2 emission, while unidirectional causality was found between CO2 emission and tourism. In this study, the graphs of the CUSUM and CUSUMQ determined the functional stability of the established relationship. This indicates that this model is a suitable and valuable strategy tool. Therefore, an increase or decrease in the macroeconomic series will cause variation in carbon emissions in Pakistan in the long -term. The finding benefits macro-level policymakers and will provide important insight for the relevant stakeholders.

In recent times, technological innovations among nations are the most powerful instrument for higher economic growth rates and development. A higher level of achievement in the diffusion/adoption of technology can create more effective economic growth. Given this motivation, the study aims to examine the impact of technological achievements on economic growth, gross capital formation, medium and high-tech exports, and employment in chosen 72 countries over the period of 1990 - 2020. The unit root tests of the cross-section augmented Im-Pesaran-Shin (CIPS) test of Pesaran and also covariate Augmented Dickey-Fuller (CADF) test of Hansen, the Pedroni cointegration test, and then Pesaran ARDL model has been applied in the analysis of data. The ARDL model results reveal a statistically significant causality and positive relationships between the technology achievement index and GDP growth, gross capital formation, medium and high-tech exports, and employment significance at 1 percent level in the long run according to Pooled Mean Group (PMG) estimator. Consequently, technological innovations are linked with economic growth and macroeconomic factors, that is to say, to get higher growth needs to grow up adaptation of technology and also to produce and trade technology-specific products.

The paper introduces order of integration test (OIT) which serves as a simple alternative to unit root test built generally using auxiliary autoregressive AAR(3) model. The parametric boundary conditions necessary and sufficient for testing the null hypothesis that the non-stationary variable under test is integrated order zero I(0) were estimated via generalized least squares (GLS). The decision on the hypothesis is evaluated using t-statistic. The test procedure was applied to a simulated non-stationary series (y1) of sample size n = 2000 and a known non-stationary time series data (y2) with two unit roots. The results showed that y1 is integrated order one (I(1)) and y2 is I(2). These results were confirmed by Augmented Dickey Fuller (ADF); Phillips-Perron (PP); Kwiatkowski, Phillips, Schmidt, and Shin (KPSS); Elliot, Rothenberg, and Stock Point Optimal (ERS) and Ng and Perron (NP) unit root tests. For logarithm transformed variable, the divergent opinions of other unit root tests in clear-cut solution of the integrated order of such variable makes the new test procedure a better alternative. Nevertheless, the simplicity and aptness of the integration order test give it leverage over conventional methods of unit root test.

This study aims to explore the casual relationship between agricultural production, economic growth and carbon dioxide emissions in Pakistan. An autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) model is applied to examine the relationship between agricultural production, economic growth and carbon dioxide emissions using time series data from 1960 to 2014. The Augmented Dickey–Fuller (ADF), Phillips–Perron (PP) and Kwiatkowski–Phillips–Schmidt–Shin (KPSS) tests are used to check the stationarity of variables. The results show both short-run and long-run relationships between agricultural production, gross domestic product (GDP) and carbon dioxide emissions in Pakistan. From the short-run estimates, it is found that a 1% increase in barley and sorghum production will decrease carbon dioxide emissions by 3% and 4%, respectively. The pairwise Granger causality test shows unidirectional causality of cotton, milled rice, and sorghum production with carbon dioxide emissions. Due to the aforementioned cause, it is essential to manage the effects of carbon dioxide emissions on agricultural production. Appropriate steps are needed to develop agricultural adaptation policies, improve irrigation facilities and introduce high-yielding and disease-resistant varieties of crops to ensure food security in the country.

Let Xt be a linear process defined by Xt = [sum ]k=0∞ ψkεt−k, where {ψk, k ≥ 0} is a sequence of real numbers and {εk, k = 0,±1,±2,...} is a sequence of random variables. Two basic results, on the invariance principle of the partial sum process of the Xt converging to a standard Wiener process on [0,1], are presented in this paper. In the first result, we assume that the innovations εk are independent and identically distributed random variables but do not restrict [sum ]k=0∞ |ψk| < ∞. We note that, for the partial sum process of the Xt converging to a standard Wiener process, the condition [sum ]k=0∞ |ψk| < ∞ or stronger conditions are commonly used in previous research. The second result is for the situation where the innovations εk form a martingale difference sequence. For this result, the commonly used assumption of equal variance of the innovations εk is weakened. We apply these general results to unit root testing. It turns out that the limit distributions of the Dickey–Fuller test statistic and Kwiatkowski, Phillips, Schmidt, and Shin (KPSS) test statistic still hold for the more general models under very weak conditions.

PurposeThere are several studies that investigate evidence for mean reversion in stock prices. However, there is no consensus as to whether stock prices are mean reverting or random walk (unit root) processes. The goal of this paper is to re‐examine mean reversion in stock prices.Design/methodology/approachThe authors use five different panel unit root tests, namely the Im, Pesaran and Shin t‐bar test statistic, the Levin and Lin test, the Im, Lee, and Tieslau Lagrangian multiplier test statistic, the seemingly unrelated regression test, and the multivariate augmented Dickey Fuller test advocated by Taylor and Sarno.FindingsThe main finding is that there is no mean reversion of stock prices, consistent with the efficient market hypothesis.Research limitations/implicationsOne issue not considered by this study is the role of structural breaks. It may be the case that the efficient market hypothesis is contingent on structural breaks in stock prices. Future studies should model structural breaks.Practical implicationsThe findings have implications for econometric modelling, in particular forecasting.Originality/valueThis paper adds to the scarce literature on the mean reverting property of stock prices based on panel data; thus, it should be useful for researchers.

This article aims to portray the impact of agricultural credit on agricultural production in Bangladesh using the Johansen co-integration method. However, the Johansen co-integration test requires the concerned variables to be in the same order of integration. Augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADF), Phillips Perron (PP), and Kwiatkowski, Phillips, Schmidt and Shin (KPSS) tests have been performed to check whether the variables contain a unit root. ADF, PP, and KPSS tests suggest that all variables- the natural logarithm of agricultural production, agricultural credit, fertiliser use, and agricultural employment- follow the integration of order one. The test results show that credit disbursed in agriculture and fertiliser usage significantly increase agricultural production in the long run. However, our study suggests that agricultural employment has a negative long-run effect on agriculture employment. Regarding post-estimation, we did not find any serial correlation in the Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) model, and residuals of the VECM model are also normally distributed. Our findings suggest that credit disbursed in the agricultural sector facilities needs to be augmented to increase and sustain agricultural output.

This research program aims to resolve the stability of Dry Dock doors with a length of 40.4 meters using Maxsurf and Hydromax software in analyzing estimates using intervals of 500 mm in length expected to produce detailed data leading to longitudinal and transverse data as asked by the process ship planning in general. The result of dry dock gate analysis with a length of 40.4 m meets IMO standards where ballast construction requires 54% and 68% and using ballast fix will be able to produce a GMt value of 1.693 m with a tide height of 10.393 m. GMt values indicate the gate dick can remain stable and sturdy standing at the bottom of the dock when dry. when the ballast is empty, it will produce GMt 1,007, which means the dock is stable, but it is still easily broken down. These conditions govern when maintaining dry dock doors

The level of corruption in West Africa has become very worrisome based on the data from the corruption perception index of transparency international. Corruption may subvert due process; reduce accountability; lead to unequal distribution of goods and services and limit the reliance of the masses on government. The objective of the paper was to examine the link between corruption and economic growth in West Africa. Data used span from 2000 to 2018 with a cross section of fifteen West Africa countries and the use of panel fully modified ordinary least squares. With the use of the Im, Pesaran, and Shin stationarity which allows for heterogeneous version of the Dickey Fuller test, it was found that the variables used were integrated of order one and long run equilibrium relationship existed based on the Pedroni cointegration method. Only foreign direct investment did not meet the a priori expectation. The result supports the ‘grease on the wheel hypothesis’. This implies that corruption and economic growth have direct relationship in West Africa. Corruption and economic growth were found to also support the U-shaped hypothesis which means that different corruption level affect economic growth in different ways. However, corruption does not lead to efficient and effective outcomes hence should not be allowed at any level of governance.

Credit default swap (CDS) spreads measure the default risk of the reference entity and have been frequently used in recent empirical papers. To provide a rigorous econometrics foundation for empirical CDS analysis, this paper applies the augmented Dickey–Fuller, Phillips–Perron, Kwiatkowski–Phillips–Schmidt–Shin, and Ng–Perron tests to study the unit root property of CDS spreads, and it uses the Phillips–Ouliaris–Hansen tests to determine whether they are cointegrated. The empirical sample consists of daily CDS spreads of the six large U.S. banks from 2001 to 2018. The main findings are that it is log, not raw, CDS spreads that are unit root processes, and that log CDS spreads are cointegrated. These findings imply that, even though the risks of individual banks may deviate from each other in the short run, there is a long-run relation that ties them together. As these CDS spreads are an important input for financial systemic risk, there are at least two policy implications. First, in monitoring systemic risk, policymakers should focus on long-run trends rather than short-run fluctuations of CDS spreads. Second, in controlling systemic risk, policy measures that reduce the long-run risks of individual banks, such as stress testing and capital buffers, are helpful in mitigating overall systemic risk.

In Jennifer Egan's manhattan beach, certain aspects of american culture—farmland in brooklyn, the ziegfeld follies, Jean Harlow's curls, the “old salts” who sailed in wooden ships (259)—are recalled at the moment of their vanishing. These and other disappearances provide evidence that, in the novel, historical change is treated as an epic trope. At the same time, disappearances mark swerves in an individual character's destiny as novelistic events. In its blending of history with individuals' stories, Manhattan Beach can be called an epic novel, along the lines of Herman Melville's Moby-Dick and Don DeLillo's Libra. Whereas novels particularize individual experience in an evolving present, epics position individual destinies in a fixed, complete history. Novels differ from epics in the distance that they take from their respective subjects, though the two genres demonstrate “all-inclusiveness” and “expansiveness” (Merchant 71, 93). The epic novel mobilizes at the point where national ambitions overlay personal stories. hrough the trope of disappearance, Manhattan Beach correlates the epic ambition to show historical transformation with the novelistic ambition to represent personal renewal. Disappearances may be escapes, but they also forecast characters' fresh starts and future convergences.

Chili is one of the main staples in making a dish and chili is one of the values in a commodity that has superior value, the price of chili often experiences price fluctuations or what is known as the price which is always changing. data taken from BPS (Central Bureau of Statistics) data nationally from January 2001 to December 2015 data, this study also aims to be able to predict national chili prices which will later be used in research, namely discussing the Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) method. In this study, the identification of the model was carried out using two tests, namely the stationarity test and the correlation test. The stationarity test is the Augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADF) test, the Philips-Perron (PP) test and the Kwiatkowski-Philips-Schmidt-Shin (KPPS) test using Minitab 9.The chili commodity is a very important commodity in the Indonesian economy, because In terms of consumption, chilies have a very significant market share, which can be seen from data from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) with an inflation weight value of 0.35%. From the research, it was found that for the selection of the best method, namely ARIMA (3,1,0) because it has the smallest MSE value and the forecasting results for the next 12 periods in January 2016 ranged from Rp. 11,868.2 to Rp. 28,315.5 and so on until December 2016.

In this paper we consider two accessibility indicators, namely E-RAB (E-UTRAN Radio Access Bearer) and E-RRC (Evolved Radio Resource Control) failure rates, of the LTE-A communication network belonging to one of the regional operators in Russian Federation. The aim of this study is to find the proper algorithms for accessibility indicators prediction, and performance estimation of these algorithms. During the study, we provide temporal dynamics of the indicators and possible failure reasons, behind these indicators. Then the percentage of the time series values is shown, which are corresponding to the abnormal situations (incidents). After that, the stationarity of the inspected time series using augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADFuller), and Kwiatkowski-Phillips-Schmidt-Shin (KPSS) methods is analyzed. Next, the ETS decomposition is performed. In order to predict the future values of the indicators, we utilize SARIMA model, triple Exponential Smoothing (Holt-Winters method), Facebook Prophet, Prony decomposition based model and XGBoost algorithm. Performance estimation is obtained in two ways: by test-sequence- and cross-validation-based Median Absolute Error (MAE). Also, the architecture for the monitoring system, that collects, analyzes and visualizes the required metrics within the infrastructure of the considered operator, is proposed in this paper. Herein, we analyze the possibilities of the open-source solution deployment on each stage of the monitoring process from data mining and preparation up to predictive model learning.

This study examined the relationship between interest rate liberalization and credit to private sector in Nigeria, using annual time series data spanning from 1986 to 2016. The study employed ARDL (p,q) model as suggested by Pesaran and Shin (1997) to analyzed the data. The study commenced with the Augmented Dickey Fuller (ADF) unit root test and the results reveal that all the variables were integrated at order I (1). While the result of the estimated coefficient reveals that interest rate with the first lag was positive and statistically insignificant. And that a percent increase will lead to a 0.087 percent increase in the dependent variable (interest rate). In the same vain Inflation rate has a negative influence on interest rate and was not statistically significant. A percentage change in inflation will lead to 0.08 percent decrease in interest rate.The coefficient of determination (R2 = 0.78) of the estimated model ARDL(1,2,4,1) shows that about 78 percent of the systematic variation in interest rate(INT) is totally explained and well accounted for by the independent variables. This implies that the ARDL (1, 2, 4, 1) model is of goodness of fit and is quite adequate. Base on the findings the study recommends amongst others that monetary authority should pursue interest rate liberalization policies so as to enhance credit to private sector growth that would further engender economic growth and development in Nigeria.
