Dear All,
My 2SLS results without HAC standard errors are promising
whereas those with HAC standard errors are not. Hitherto, I have been
used to robust HAC standard errors in my estimations. I'll like to

HAC standard errors.
The prevailing attitude in the scientific community is to report those
which look better to you. Of course, the next step is to ignore what your
discussants say and accuse your referees of blatant bias and incompetence.
