Invertibility - converting an MA(1) to an AR(infinite) process

This video explains what is meant by 'invertibility' in econometrics, as the condition allowing conversion of an MA(1) process to an AR(infinite lag) process.

Greetings, Ben.

Your explanation is awesome! I have been looking for a intuitiveness behind the math for a really long time and i finally find it. In my opinion, there is nothing more valuable than getting the basic understanding of how to extract the final result starting from the beginning. You saved my time! I find this content extremely useful. Thank you!

Thank you so much! This helped me grasp a difficult concept for which no explanation was available in the book

Have been watching your videos for a while, makes for crisp understanding of esoteric concepts, please continue your good work that I discover to be an art.

Thanks a lot! This helped me get a full mark on a 20 mark final exam question!

[frankyii]

thanks for your work, you saved someone today!

[anesethemi]

thank you so much, some just explain it without mentioning the steps in between, as we are supposed to know these steps

Hello I am just wondering isn't MA(1) process defined as:

xt = et + theta * et-1 instead of et - theta * et-1?

Hi everyone, can someone help me to understand what is the phrase that he mentioned in minute 1:11, I understand sometihing like "the lang of.."

Thank u so much

[nielssss]

straight to the point. Thank you so much

I really enjoyed listening to this lecture

0:04 Sorry how do you spell that? Coike transformation? Thanks

[bjornlarsson]

Thanks Ben! Just one question: why do we care about transforming between MA(1) and AR(infinity) as in this video (AR(1) and MA(infinity) in the previous video in the playlist)? What do we gain from transforming from one process to another? Maybe you said that, but I missed it

[tristanh.]

How would it look like if we had an MA(2)process?

[jayjayf]

Your MA(1) model is missing the mean in the equation, how does a sum of the errors equal the actual estimate of the value at time t?

[darrentan]

my lecture used Yt = Epsilont + tita x Epsilont-1 may I ask why the equation in my lecture uses + but the example in the video uses minus?

Hello, my teacher explained that not every MA process is invertible and that, for an MA(q) process to be invertible, the solutions of the polynomial equation have to be inside the unit circle. Do you know why is that? Thank you very much!

Does anybody know how to convert an arma(1, 1) process to an ar(infinity)?

[rosaevee]

Can an AR(1) be converted to an MA(infinity) ?

[lyutonglu]

Hey would it be the same if an intercept is included?

[friederikel]

How does it work for higher order MA(q)?

[nope]

You haven't started with an MA(1) though. You've started with an AR(1). Davidson and McKinnon 273
