Dear Everyone,

I am trying to estimate an augmented production using a within
estimator on an unbalanced panel data. Panel Identifier in my case is
a firm.

When I cluster at the industry level, I get a missing F statistics.

where fs1fs10 is an interaction term of FDI in that industry with an
industry dummy (lnvfdi*i1). The same is done for all the 10 industries
in the dataset

When I cluster it at the firm level, it works fine.
