I have the following problem:
using the margins plot command to look at the graph between my independent variables, FSTS and FATA (foreign sales/total sales and foreign assets/total assets respectively) and my independent variables, HHI and HHISQ (standardized values of ethnic concentration indices), I see those tables:
Code:
margins, at(HHI2=(-2423761(1117477)3163628))
Predictive margins Number of obs = 1,275
Model VCE : Robust
Expression : Linear prediction, predict()
1._at : HHI2 = -2423761
2._at : HHI2 = -1306284
3._at : HHI2 = -188807
4._at : HHI2 = 928670
5._at : HHI2 = 2046147
6._at : HHI2 = 3163624

------------------------------------------------------------------------------As you can see the two functions share the same domain, but not the codename, which is suspicious.
You know what could be the cause of this problem and how I can solve it.
Thank you,
Luca
