Artur, Allin et al,
I haven't looked at this for a while, but IIRC I got similar parameter estimates to
S&W. I've been away for a few days but will try to sort this out in the next day
or 2 and get back to you.
PS

Hey Allin,
I should have been more precise.
Actually I am trying to replicate figure 2a (std. deviation of the permanent component)
and 2b (std. deviation of the transitory component) from the S/W paper.
If one compares figures 2a and 2b with the results I've obtained with Peter
Summer's gretl code (pdf, attached before) you see that they highly deviate from Stock
and Watson's results. But using the original code I can replicate their figures quite
well (see attached pdf files).
I thought that maybe somebody on the mailing list has already tried to replicate the S/W
paper using their data and Peter Summer's code.
Best,
Artur

Dear gretl mailing list
some while ago, Peter Summers posted his translated code from Stock/Watson's
2007 paper (originally written in Gauss)
(URL:
http://lists.wfu.edu/pipermail/gretl-users/2011-February/005897.html).
I tried to replicate some work, among them Stock/Watson's paper, but
unfortunately I do not get the same or at least similar results using Peter
Summer's code. Even though, the input parameters are as in the original Gauss
code.
What exactly is it that you're comparing between the Stock &
Watson paper and gretl output? And are you using the corrected
S & W output?
