Source: Own summary

ADF = -4.282 (constant, no trend)

ADF = -4.234 (constant, + trend)

ADF is statistically significant at a 5 per cent level of significance in the case of
‘constant, no trend’ and at a 10 per cent of significance in the case of ‘constant, +
trend’.

Reject H0

The residuals are stationary there is cointegration
