Unemployment Data.
data(unemployment)
A multivariate yearly time series from 1890 to 1979 with variables
unemployment rate,
broad money supply,
implicit deflator of Gross National Product,
real purchases of goods and services,
real exports.
The data was originally studied by Rea (1983), the data set is given in Krämer and Sonnberger (1986). Below we replicate a few examples from their book. Some of these results differ more or less seriously and are sometimes parameterized differently.
