I have a question about the stationarity and I wonder if you can offer some words of wisdom. I have a time series X, which passed the Augmented Dickey-Fuller test and the Kwiatkowski, Phillips, Schmidt and Shin (KPSS) test with p-values as large as 40%. I consider X as stationary. However, the logged X cannot pass the Kwiatkowski, Phillips, Schmidt and Shin (KPSS) test with p-values close to 5 or 6%.
1) If X is stationary, should all transformation of X, such as log(X) or sqrt(X) or X^(1/3), be stationary as well?
2) Should I use some other different stationarity tests for the non-linear transformation log(X) or sqrt(X)?
