Dear professors Kit, Mark and Judson , I thank you very much for your kind answers, now everything is working perfectly, -ivreg2 rocks!! Jordana Rodrigues Cunha PhD.

The problem is the second stage regression. I am using -ivreg2-for the GMM estimation and in the first-stage F-stat is not missing like this: . ivreg2 y t p c d (x w = h l m n o ) if sampleCM==1, gmm2s endog (x w) cluster (id deal ) 2-Step GMM estimation --------------------- Estimates efficient for arbitrary heteroskedasticity and clustering on id and deal Statistics robust to heteroskedasticity and clustering on id and deal Number of clusters (id) = 2903 Number of obs = 8194 Number of clusters (deal) = 6512 F( 51, 2902) = 1.90 Prob > F = 0.0001 Total (centered) SS = 84.6613152 Centered R2 = -0.3689 Total (uncentered) SS = 85.85567541 Uncentered R2 = -0.3499 Residual SS = 115.8950279 Root MSE = .1189 All the tests show that my regressors are not endogenous and that my instruments are valid. And so, I back to my OLS regression results that had produced good estimations (and unbiased too). You can use ivreg2 to estimate OLS models with 2-way clustering. Just remove the parens and put in x,w as exogenous variables, and drop the excluded instruments.
