Hello Rodrigo,
It works. Thanks for your help.
Do you know if Stata can automatically pick up lag length for Newey-West test? Currently, we have to specify how many lags to be included in Newey-West.

Hi Kartick,
You could use -newey- in Stata. I know that is running a regression,
but I don't see why that is not applicable to your case. For example,
you could run: newey ret_stock, Stata will assume that only a constant
is included, then it is the same as doing a t-test.
HTH, Rodrigo.
