st: re: testing autocorrelation in the FEIV model

[Kit Baum <baum@bc.edu>]

Please disregard my prior message re -ivactest-. It will not work in  
a panel context. It is unclear what you mean by testing for  
autocorrelation in a panel context, as each unit of the panel could  
have a separate autocorrelation structure (a la -xtgls-). Your best  
approach might be to use -xtivreg2- and apply HAC ("Newey-West")  
standard errors to your FE-XTIV estimates.
