Estimating co-integration factors of two time series

So, there appear to be many, many routines for testing for unit roots or
hypothesis tests on co integration (ca.jo, ca.po etc) - but I've yet to
find a means of estimating the degree of co-integration between two time
series.
IT could be that I'm going about this the wrong way (or looking for the
wrong technique), so here is my problem (which I thought was common and
had been solved...):
I want to measure the degree of co-movement between two assets or rates.
For example the yield on a bond and the corresponding risk-free rate.
Of course I could just look at Pearson/Spearman/Kendal correlation between
the time series, but I believe that ignores time and so path dependence -
which I think is important. Hence thinking about cointegration.
Any thoughts?

Perhaps Paul Teetor's example at http://quanttrader.info/public/testForCoint.html maybe useful HTH Pete -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Estimating-co-integration-factors-of-two-time-series-tp3937426p3937455.html Sent from the Rmetrics mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
