Just read this paper that revisits Weitzman’s 1974 question on when policymakers should use taxes versus quotas to correct externalities in stochastic networked economies. It shows if shocks are positively correlated (like a global energy price jump) linear taxes win...

Just wrote some "High Performance" wild boostrap for SVARs in Rcpp and it is five times slower than Matlab. What a success bro 😀

Always will be. Look at ECB forecasts 😁

Congratulations

How could I miss it 😫 I should read his threads b4 asking an R related question.

I wonder which R packages economists use for creating nice tables in R. GT is excellent but has very poor LATEX support. So far my favorite is tinytable. Thx. @andrew.heiss.phd

Okay, a little late in sharing. But in academic time, this is practically breaking news 😀 Our @nber.org Working Paper No. w33158 “Economic Surveillance using Corporate Text” was (somewhat recently) featured by Harvard Law School Forum on Corporate Governance corpgov.law.harvard.edu/2025/02/11/e...

Confession: reading Piketty's capital book very first time. Worse is that I am reading German version as a non native speaker.

Academic conference. You invented academic conference.

Very timely paper.

10 year ago, Oli Coibion ( @empctmacrotx.bsky.social ) and I had a paper in AEJ Macro about inflation expectations in the U.S. (www.aeaweb.org/articles?id=...). We found that oil/gasoline prices strongly predict inflation expectations. This "iron law" continues to hold.

EU Climate Policy in a Globalized World: Philipp M. Richter; Joschka Wanner

I agree. But wages are also critical. Top AI minds would always prefer the US. Germany is not able to attract top minds with such a high tax burden and low level of net income.

Working with time series in R is a torture to me. Base R vs tidy principles are two different universes. Any suggestions ?
