I am trying to fit a multivariate dvec(1,1) or bekk (1,1) model for 3
variables using

mod<-mgarch(data~1,~dvec(1,1)) OR
mod<-mgarch(data~1,~bekk(1,1))

The problem is: when using the command

predict(mod,X)

to forecast my estimated model X periods ahead, the correlation
forecasts frequently exceed 1! Does anybody know why this happens? Note
that I have never encountered this problem when fitting bivariate dvec
or bekk models. It only happens when the number of variables is grater
than 2.
