I am having problems doing a multiple regression for fama and french. The above are my codes and these codes only regress mkt_rp. How should i amend this to regress mkt_rp, smb and hml.

thank you

Hello,

Do you mean that you do not get parameter estimates for the explanatory variables smb and hml?

In the picture of your dataset, the two variables (smb and hml) are constant. That's maybe / probably why.

It would be better to include the LOG. That is more telling than just the code.

Cheers,

Koen
