Re: Fixed effects in panel model

I'm sorry to disturb you guys once more (I swear, this is the last time). In the meantime, I found an answer to most of my questions. For all the simple equations I liked to run, I did the following: 1) Specify my model (in dit geval ars c trade) 2) Select with fixed effect on cross section & pe...

Re: Fixed effects in panel model

Okay, I should first run a Hausman test on random effects? But when I try doing that, after setting both cross-sections and periods to "random" and then run the Hausman test. I get the following error message: "near singular matrix in computation of Swamy-Arora RE component variances ...

Re: Fixed effects in panel model

To avoid any confusion, I added my original excel file too. In the meantime, I figured out that I should adjust something in "panel options" when I estimate my equation. Both "cross-sections" and "periods" are set by default on "none". Should I adjust both to ...

Fixed effects in panel model

Dear, I have a question which is probably very basic for you guys. I'm working with panel data (see workfile) and now I want to run very basic OLS regressions with them, like for example ars c trade (=transmission1_trade in the workfile). I sent my first results to my professor and he said: "be...

Interpretation johanson test

Hi, I want to see whether different price series from different financial markets have an influence on each other without calculating the returns. f.e. eurostoxx = alpha + beta. px + errorterm However, price series are non-stationary processes, and I learnt in class you can only conduct regressions ...

regression using variables of different pages

I have a workfile, consisting of several pages. Now I want to run a regression using variables of different pages, for example, the simple regression: ar01 c smc Is this possible or should I copy one variable from one page to another? I have made sure that ar01 and smc have the same sample and range...

Re: Construction new variable

Of course, I should have uploaded it immediately. So, I am interested in turning tradespain and tradeUK into one variable "tradegzc", and similarly, finaspain and finaUK into one variable "finagzc", so I could get the descriptives stats out of it. P.S.: The file is in Dutch, land...

Construction new variable

Hi, I am working with panel data where I have observations for each country(68 countries in total) in each year(2004 and 2005). Spain and the UK are my ground zero countries (where a terrorist attack has taken place). So for each variable, I have got 136 observations. trade_spain trade_UK 2004 count...

Re: Static forecasting

I am só sorry to bother you again, but it still doesn't work. I always get the same error: near singular matrix. I don't understand, because when I run the same program without the forecasting, but just with genr {%r}_ar=resid after the estimation, it goes perfectly, so I don't think there is a prob...

Re: Static forecasting

Can you forecast using a command within the program or should you do it manually for each country seperatly afterwards? Based on the sample of 25/4/2003 until 29/1/2004, it should forecast for the sample from 30/1/2004 until 31/12/2005. for %r land1 land2 land3 land5 land6 land7 land8 land9 land10 l...

Near singular matrix

Hi, For my thesis, I am researching the influence of terrorism on financial markets. Thereby, I study 68 different countries, for which I have written a simple program to generate the same regression for all of these countries. But for some reason, I get the error "Near singular matrix" on...
