Another way would be
. iis company
. xtreg y x* i.county, fe
. predict u, u
Variable u then holds the coefficients of the dummy-variables for
company centered at their mean. Note that this is just another way to
access the dummy variable coefs. Austins remark concerning the
reliability of the coefs remains to be true, therefore.
I don't know waht the "dummy variable trap" is.
