Given a strictly stationary sequence {Xk, k= …, −1,0,1, …} of r.v.'s one defines forn= 1, 2, 3 …,. Here an example of {Xk} is given with finite second moments, for which Var(X1+ … +Xn)→∞ andρn→ 0 asn→∞, but (X1+ … +Xn) fails to be asymptotically normal; instead there is partial attraction to non-stable limit laws.
