Less than 2 weeks in and 25% tariffs our close allies + 10% on China. Plus a (credible) promise that they will go even higher when there is (inevitable) retaliation. It’s hard to decide if this is worse economic policy or foreign policy. We’ll see if Trump caves to the market.

Defensive hiring of researchers by incumbent firms with monopsony power reduced creative destruction leading to the simultaneous rise in R&D spending and decline in TFP growth in the US economy over recent decades. Killing innovation by hiring!

Our NIH grant to discover coronavirus antiviral meds was terminated today. With this grant, we had developed a better SARSCoV2 inhibitor than Paxlovid, and we recently discovered an improved drug that looks better than Pfizer's own second-generation inhibitor.

This gets weirder and weirder as economic policy. Tax imports but don’t allow domestic producers to raise prices? Next stop: production quotas? wsj.com/articles/trump…

The advanced geothermal company Fervo Energy says it drilled a 15,700 ft well and reached temperatures of 500°F (260°C) in just 16 days of drilling. That’s an improvement over last year when it drilled an 8000 ft well and reached 370°F temps in 41 days. linkedin.com/posts/timlatim…
