ROBERTO PASCUAL <[email protected]>:
Bob Yaffee refers to
http://www.stata.com/statalist/archive/2007-08/msg01207.html
which code would take quite a lot of adapting for your use.

I haven't read:
Politis, D.N., Romano, J.P. and Wolf, M. (1999). Subsampling, Springer, NY.
Lahiri, S.N. (2003). Resampling Methods for Dependent data, Springer, NY.
Politis, D.N. and Romano, J.P. (1994). The Stationary Bootstrap. JASA,
89:1303-1313.
but:
I suspect both subsampling and the block bootstrap are easy to
program: for the block bootstrap you just select _N/L observations
(from the first _N-L+1 obs) and the L-1 obs that follow them in each
iteration, then stitch them together, right (where the block length L
for each iteration is random and generated from a geometric
distribution)?  Perhaps an enhancement of the -gsample- program could
do it?  That would be up to its author, Ben Jann, of course...

The non-overlapping block bootstrap is already possible with the
cluster option.  Just define the cluster variable as blocks of time...
