Not quite.  That's a matrix where -ivreg2- stores some basic first-stage
regression results and statistics.

If you want -ivreg2- to store the full Stata estimation from the first
stage regression for later use by -estout- or whatever, use the
-savefirst- option.  More details in the -ivreg2- help file.

Cheers,
Mark
