It took me two hours to run the -xtunit- command, but here is what I get:
. xtunitroot fisher reduct_per,dfuller lag(1)
could not compute test for panel 119
could not compute test for panel 125
could not compute test for panel 154
could not compute test for panel 782
could not compute test for panel 814
could not compute test for panel 1050
could not compute test for panel 2707
could not compute test for panel 3587
could not compute test for panel 3894
could not compute test for panel 4269
could not compute test for panel 7289
could not compute test for panel 8104
could not compute test for panel 9155
could not compute test for panel 9340
could not compute test for panel 9391
could not compute test for panel 9542
could not compute test for panel 9547
Fisher-type unit-root test for reduct_per
Based on augmented Dickey-Fuller tests
-----------------------------------------
Ho: All panels contain unit roots Number of panels = 9547
Ha: At least one panel is stationary Avg. number of periods = 53.19
AR parameter: Panel-specific Asymptotics: T -> Infinity
Panel means: Included
Time trend: Not included
Drift term: Not included ADF regressions: 1 lag
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Statistic p-value
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Inverse chi-squared(19060)P 8814.2739 1.0000
Inverse normal Z 60.7097 1.0000
Inverse logit t(46659) L* 55.5908 1.0000
Modified inv. chi-squared Pm -52.4767 1.0000
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
P statistic requires number of panels to be finite.
Other statistics are suitable for finite or infinite number of panels.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
.
I'm happy with the results, because they show that tenants could not
anticipate a long-run mean reduction rates.
Many thanks again anyway
