Austin,
thanks for the code. I meant the latter approach, or even simpler, as
you don't need interactions if you will estimate it cluster by
cluster.

In your code (without collecting the coefficients):

qui reg mvalue kstock
predict m2, res
qui reg t kstock
predict t2, res
sortby c: reg m2 t2

The last can be made more useful with statsby, as Martin suggested.

Thanks,

Laszlo
