In this paper we intend to improve the explanatory power of regressions when the deletion method is used for the remedy of Multicolinearity. If one deletes the variable (s) that is (are) responsible for Multicolinearity, he loses some information that is not common between the deleted variable (s) and the other remaining variables in the regression. To improve this method, we run the deleted va...

Although it is not...
