Hi I am using NeweyWest standard errors to correct lm( ) output. For example:
lm(A~A1+A2+A3+A4+A5+B1+B2+B3+B4+B5)
vcovNW<-NeweyWest(lm(A~A1+A2+A3+A4+A5+B1+B2+B3+B4+B5))

I am using package(sandwich) for NeweyWest. Now when I run this command, it gives following error:
Error in solve.default(diag(ncol(umat)) - apply(var.fit$ar, 2:3, sum)) :system is computationally singular: reciprocal condition number = 7.49468e-18

Attached herewith is data for A&B, A1,A2,A3,A4,A5,B1,B2,B3,B4,B5 are simply lag variables. Can you help me removing this error please?
