The relatively commonly accepted way to do the time series bootstrap
is by blocks. If what you indeed have are panel data, then I would
suggest resampling by panels as a whole. You should be able to do that
with -bootstrap, cluster()-. If yours is a genuine time series, you
need to find out what the state of the art is through current
publications on the topic. It's going to be tough to taylor Stata's
-bootstrap- to work with that, however.
