* Bracketed terms are Newey-West standard errors based on a first-order process<br />
for the residuals.<br />
** The following four statistics are the probability values for the Box-Ljung Qtest<br />
(Q(15)) for autocorrelated residuals using 15 lagged autocorrelations,<br />
Engle’s test for autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity of orders one<br />
and four (ARCH), Ramsey’s RESET specification test, and the Jarque-Bera<br />
test for normality (NORMAL). A value at or below 0.05 means that the null<br />
can be rejected at the 5 per cent level.<br />
