Is there any possibility that you are repeatedly changing your data, in
a manner like this:
. use originaldata
. replace x = log(1+x)
. reg y x
. replace x = log(1+x)
. reg y x
If you can reproduce the problem in as simple a do-file as possible, you
could test that all the relevant variables are the same before each call
to xtreg (e.g. by running -su y x1 x2 x3- etc and comparing the output).
Regards,
Brendan
