Hello everyone

I am having troubles figuring out how to in a panel data structure to derive
some descriptives.

In my data

- there are mutliple companies, each having 1 to many funds
- each fund being of one of 11 strategies
- each fund only showing observations for part of the total sample period.

I require

- the total number of companies per month
- the average (median, max) number of funds per company per month
- the average (median, min, max) number of strategies per company per month 

The data format is for example like this:

CompanyID      FundID             Strategy           Date             Return
3021                 205                  2          Jan 94             X
3021                 205                  2          Feb 94             X
3021                 405                  3          Jan 94             X
4671                 904                  9          Feb 94             X
4671                 904                  5          Mar 94             X
4671                 154                  1          Mar 94             X
...

Number of funds per family per month was easy:
by companyid mydate ,sort: egen perfamnrofunds = count(R)

But now I ran into troubles. I would greatly appreciate if anyone could
help.

Thanks in advance,

Best regards,

Oliver
