Question

I estimate a multiple linear regression model for portfolio  using market size and value and adding as usual a constant ( to make sure that E(errors)=0 as per the GM assumptions request ).  Then I wish to identify monthly effects so I generate a dummy for each month of the year , from January to December included . EViews will 

Select one:
a.

send out an error message saying : near singular matrix . This is happening because I fell into the dummy variable trap because the sum of all the dummy variables is at any point in time equal to 1 . As a consequence the OLS estimator is not identified 

b.

send out an error message saying : near singular matrix . This is happening because I fell into the dummy variable trap because the costant (c) multiplies the regressor 1 and the sum of all the dummy variable is at any point in time equal to 1 . As a consequence the model is not identified and no estimator can estimate the betas 

c.

send out an error message saying : near singular matrix . This is happening because I fell into the dummy variable trap because the costant (c) multiplies the regressor 1 and the sum of all the dummy variable is at any point in time equal to 1 . As a consequence the OLS estimator is inconsistent

d.

send out an error message saying : near singular matrix . This is happening because I fell into the dummy variable trap because the sum of all the dummy variables is at any point in time equal to 1 . As a consquence theOLS estimator suffers of bias

e.

send out an error message saying : near singular matrix . This is happening because I fell into the dummy variable trap because the sum of all the dummy variables is at any point in time equal to 1 . As a consquence the model is not identified and cannot be estimated
