Hi gretl community,
I am just estimating some VAR models and would like to use robust
standard errors. I am using the following lines to set up HAC:
-
set force_hc off #to make sure that HAC and not HC is used
set hac_prewhiten off #Andrews-Monahan prewhitening and re-colorin

You're right, these won't work to produce HAC for a VAR. It's not
exactly a bug, but a semi-deliberate decision ;-)

Dear all,
IMHO, I think "--robust-hac" it's better because it makes it clearer
