Fußnoten
1
We perfectly replicate the sample descriptive statistics.
 
2
As already mentioned, we use a two-step efficient GMM estimator, selected (among the existing types of GMM estimators) for being the one that, after repeated replication attempts, provides the closest estimates to those presented by LLB. It is worth stressing that LLB do not clearly report which type of GMM estimator is used in their cross-sectional analysis.
 
3
The standard errors are bootstrapped.
