Error message in GMM estimation
Posted: Mon Feb 21, 2011 8:00 am
Hello there (by the way thanks a lot Gareth for the help with my last question).
I am doing a Panel estimation with GMM.
I am trying to estimate an equation with three lags of the dependant variable and other exogenous variables by GMM and fixed effects. However, when I estimate the equation, an error message appears. It says something like "Order condition violated-Insufficient instruments in GMM(..)..."
I´m thinking maybe I write the code in a wrong way, I am regressing:
gmm(cx=f, per=f) y y(-1) y(-2) y(-3) x1 x2 x3 x4 x5
Any idea will be appreciated.
Thanks!
