Hello everyone,
After performing xtoverid and interpreting its results, I decided to run a fe robust regression for my panel data, clustered by countries (36 years and 35 countries). Unfortunately, my model has a very low R sq and Prob > F = 0.2397.
What are the implications of this? Does this mean I have to find another model? I must mention I do not have a background in statistics or econometrics.
Below my results. The variables are logged.
Thank you very much!

Fixed-effects (within) regression Number of obs = 774
Group variable: Id_country Number of groups = 35
R-sq: Obs per group:
within = 0.0546 min = 7
between = 0.0353 avg = 22.1
overall = 0.0088 max = 37
F(5,34) = 1.43
corr(u_i, Xb) = -0.0092 Prob > F = 0.2397
(Std. Err. adjusted for 35 clusters in Id_country)
