I have a panel data of daily price of a commodity in
different locations of a city over 7 -year period.
Unfortunately about 40 % data is missing from both
right and left (dependent variable) side of the model.
How should I go about it? I tried Stata�s ipolate
command to fill up the missing observations but did
not help much. When I ran xtreg with random effect
option (re) a number of records are dropped. I want to
capture as many panels as I can. Any help is greatly
appreciated.
