Dear Statalisters (and Stata programmers)
I don't know if I have not-the-newest Stata manual books, but in the one I have there is an error in the way that the mathematical expression of the Arellano-Bond estimator (programmed by xtabond) is written down. In the xt book, on page 31, The expressions for delta2-hat and for Q2 should include A2^(-1), and not A2.
