Inflation pressures are broad-based, to be absolutely clear, but this is worth noting: if shelter and energy prices remained flat since last year, I estimate headline inflation would have been 3.2% in May instead of 7.7%. #cdnecon

Economists, want to more efficiently solve your Heterogeneous Agent Models? Check out my new working paper with Sergio Ocampo Díaz:

I think it remains an under-discussed aspect of the past few years that the United States approach to the pandemic was, essentially, to feed more people to the Covid meat grinder than any other country on earth.

Bringing back this thread now that our paper is out in Computational Economics 🎉🎊 It was great working on this Baxter Robinson Check out the published version 🔗doi.org/10.1007/s10614…

👀 that is my paper with Baxter Robinson at number 3! You can access it free here 🔗 rdcu.be/dqxSB

Academics to students: Start the essay early to ensure it is of a high standard. Academics to conference audience: Thank you for listening to my bullet points written on a napkin in the taxi.

Thank you for featuring my paper! I am a Ph.D. candidate in Economics at Western University and on the market this year. I am a macroeconomist working on firm dynamics and financial friction. Please check my work on my website! 👇 sites.google.com/view/jihyun-ki…

Do not miss Anastasiia's work on Human Capital! In her JMP she shows that teachers' and mothers' perceptions about children's non-cognitive and cognitive skills are *biased* Teachers and mothers identify more delays in neighbourhoods with *higher* skill levels!

What is the output cost of reducing emissions? In my JMP I show that this cost depends on how firms burn fuels. I find that the cost of reducing emissions is much lower than we thought! The key is heterogeneity in firm-specific fuel productivity. #Steel #India #EconTwitter 1/5

Checkout Emmanuel Murray impressive work on the output cost of curbing emissions. Emmanuel is an IO economist using state-of-the-art production function estimation to understand how firms fuel choices shape their response to carbon taxes through a dynamic input choice model.

Canadian zoologist Anne Innes Dagg died recently. If you ever want a story to show how pervasive raw sexism in Canadian academia was less than 50 years ago read this short autobiography she penned in 2000. anneinnisdaggfoundation.org/zoologist

Incredibly disappointed by the NDP here. The Federal carbon tax and rebate is both progressive and the most efficient way to fight climate change.

Check out this Financial Times article by Soumaya Keynes on the work of the new Econ Nobel laureates! The article cites the work of our own Prof. #TimConley (Social Sci @WesternU ) with Prof. #MorganKelly (UCD Economics) "The Standard Errors of Persistence", forthcoming in the Journal of International Economics

I think this is what my American friends should be most concerned with right now:

It is an #AWSOME day for us at Western! We are hosting the Annual Workshop of Southwestern Ontario Macro Economists! Thread to follow with 📸 Program👇
