==Summer 2018==
==Notes from Ed==
Please build and link to a project page for the STATA analysis!
Also, if/when you make changes to a sql file, please:
#Run them through or make it clear that you haven't with comments
#Let me know by posting it on a project page and linking to in your work log.
Otherwise, we are both going to be making conflicting changes to the same files.

This week was dedicated to refining the Linear Probability Model and the reduced form evidence that I did for Jeremy.
I added extensive notes to the interpretation of the coefficients of each model that was estimated as requested by Jeremy. I adjusted for small technicalities in each model.
Additionally, after a call with Ed, I checked the distribution of market size when using either year-code100 or year-code20 as market definition. See Project Page for more on this.
'''2018-07-11 until 07-20:'''
Basically spent this entire week working out the code to build the LPM dataset. Detailed description of code and dataset on project page.
'''2018-07-11:'''
Created a new SQL code to build the LPM dataset. Sent it to Ed Egan to check.
'''2018-07-12:'''
Sick day.
'''2018-07-11:'''
Skype meeting with Ed Egan to discuss new dataset. Need to build a broader dataset for running the LPM model. Started studying the SQL code and thinking about the necessary changes to get the desired dataset.
'''2018-07-10:'''
Investigated the reasons of why the LPM model is not giving the expected results.
'''2018-07-06:'''
Received new suggestions from Fox.
Started rewriting the report following comments from Fox.
'''2018-07-05:'''
Wrote a report with all the results so far by request from Jeremy Fox and sent it to him.
Also added a LPM model to the analysis, by suggestion from Jeremy Fox, although I suspect there is something wrong with the way I built the dataset needed for it. Emailed my worries to Fox.
After meeting with Ed Egan, changed the SQL code when building the history variables from VCs. Instead of subtracting 1 from the sum of all portcos that worked with the VC, now we do not subtract and instead of using weak inequality when LEFT JOINing, we use strict inequality.
