Subject   st: twostep option in xtabond and xtabond2
Date   Mon, 3 Mar 2008 01:38:19 -0800 (PST)

Dear statalisters; 
I'm trying to estimate a model using
TWOSTEP(xtabond)and I keep getting most of my
variables dropped(although there isn't any co
linearity problem))that is happened only when I add
the option (twostep); but it is OK when using the
one-step estimator. 
My model as follows:

ROA(it)=ROA(i(t-1))+X(it)+ Z(t)+ year dummies+ uit
 
-X(it):changes over time per firm.
-Z(t): change only over time.

I used xtabond2 ..I got the same problem too. Also, I
used Stata-10 xtdpdsys..the same problem...I used the
system GMM I got the same problem of dropped
variables... 
-I tried taking out the dummy variables or the
only-time-changing variables or both.. but .. no way
out?!
-Can any one suggest doing something please ?!

Here are my results:

The two step-results:
