Hi All,

I have run into an issue with my stata results when I run levpet
industry by industry.

When I run the following command for Levihnson-Petrin I get different
results each time.

eststo: levpet lnY if industry_no == 1, free (lnl) proxy (lnM) capital
(lnK1) revenue

For example, the first and second set of results are posted below. Is
this a similar effect to bootstrapping?

Thanks a lot.
