Hi Bill, Thanks for prompt reply and letting me know a way around it.
I have more than 1200 observations and not all the values are the same. However, my data points are quite similar, for example, 0.079275, 0.078867, 0.070716 in millions and etc. I have run the data without converting it to millions and I still get the same error message. As I have kurtosis value, it should be fine for the time being. However, in case if you have any other explanation behind the error, I will highly appreciate it.
