The Panel Data Case

is the same in every equation.
The number of moment equations is T L
if each moment equation is L per period,
E[zit it ] 0,
If every disturbance at time t is also orthogonal
to every set of instruments in every other period, s,
Then
E[zit is ] 0, TL per period, for T periods, or T 2L
E.g., L=10 instruments, T=5 periods, K=5 parameters,
250 moment equations (!) for fitting 5 parameters.

These blocks may contain all

previous exogenous variables, or all
exogenous variables for all periods.
This may contain the all periods of data on x1 rather than just the group mean. (Amemiya and
MaCurdy).
For unbalanced panels the number of
columns for Zi varies. Given the form of
Zi, the number of columns depends on Ti.
We need all Zi to have the same number
of columns. For matrices with less
columns than the largest one, extra
columns of zeros are added.
The covariance matrix defines the model:

How does y(t) = 1.220175 y(t-1) - 0.262198 y(t-2) + a behave?
y(t) = 1.220175 y(t-1) + a
is obviously explosive.

Smallest (possibly complex) root must be greater than 1.0.
Postscript
There is no theoretical guidance on the

instrument set
There is no theoretical guidance on the form of
the covariance matrix
There is no theoretical guidance on the
number of lags at any level of the model
There is no theoretical guidance on the form of
the exogeneity and it is not testable.
Results vary wildly with small variations in the
assumptions.

There are (huge numbers of) additional moments.

(1) Initial condition, yi,0 x
E[i,t yi,0 ] 0 implies T more estimating equations
(2) Uncorrelatedness with differences,
E[yis (it i,t1 )] 0, t 2,..., T, s 0,..., T 2 is
T(T-1)/2 conditions
(3) (Nonlinear)
E[iT (it i,t1 )] 0 implies T-2 restrictions.
And so on.
Even moderately sized models embed potentially
thousands of such estimating equations for usually
very small numbers (say 5 or 10) parameters.
How much efficiency can be gained? Is there a cost?
