Really enjoyed attending PRC's 2025 symposium last week; I was honored to have joint work (with Anita Mukherjee and Hessam Bavafa) on the program. Most importantly, though, I have this photo with Olivia S. Mitchell, my academic idol, and Anita Mukherjee!

Olivia S. Mitchell Cato Institute Muchas gracias Olivia. También tengo los mejores recuerdos de ti y de esos años como Teaching Fellow de la Universidad de Harvard. Tener alumnas excepcionales como tú es el mejor “premio” para un profesor. Felicitaciones por tu trabajo en el Pension Research Council de Wharton.

Most investors are ambiguity averse, preferring to make decisions based on known rather than uncertain probabilities. The Wharton School's Olivia S. Mitchell and others found that perceiving less ambiguity about an asset’s returns made people more likely to invest in it: whr.tn/4jGTYRu

I am very saddened to learn of the passing of Stanley Fischer - an exceptional economist, thoughtful leader and a mentor to many. His wisdom shaped generations of policymakers and strengthened global cooperation. My thoughts are with his family and loved ones.
