Dear All,
I’m calculating a second order DSGE model, I get the irfs out.
I’m encountering a weird situation and wondering why.
See the figure, the black line the one using the following shocks coding, listing only 1 shock out; the blue line is the results using the shocks coding, listing all shocks out; while all other parts of the mods all the same. The figure that I plotted out using only the es_ne shock, the plotting code is also below.
I believe that these two shocks coding should lead to the same irfs figures, but it turns out to be not!!!See the figure.
I check these twice, there is indeed no difference between these two files, merely the difference at the shocks. I think that even the second one listing all shocks out but I only use the es_ne shock’s result to plot, so it should not bring any difference. But the results shows the difference between these two ways of shocks coding. I never encountered this in the past when solving for 1-order linear models.
Can anyone tell me why? I really want to know the reasons and want to fix it!
