The Economics Department at @Princeton is deeply saddened by the passing of esteemed colleague and Nobel Prize winner Chris Sims. The world lost one of the great economists of our times; those who knew him lost a dear friend. About Sims and his impact: bit.ly/3PrpOaE

Here's a link to my new paper, `Non - Ricardian Equivalence', co-authored with Joo Guerreiro (UCLA) and Jana Obradovic (Northwestern). jguerreiro.com/files/EGO_RNE… We could have titled the paper `HANK isn't as Smart/Sophisticated as You Think'.

Tragic death of John Leahy. An amazing economist, wonderful adviser, consistently modest and kind, he will be greatly missed. May his memory be a blessing.

An example of sophisticated time inconsistency: see discussion of Donna Buschelberger below.
Ordinary people can't compete when companies have teams of psychologists trying to hack into their gray matter. This business is too dangerous to be run by the private sector.

The market for economists has become more & more of a buyer's market in recent years. It's often called a "tough market", but as someone on both sides of the market this year—a former student looking for a job & a junior macro position to fill at the University of Colorado Boulder, my seller side has been afraid while my buyer side looks foreward with anticipation.

At the Nemmers Conference honoring Mike Woodford and his @NorthwesternU Nemmers Prize. Today’s talk: don’t assume REE—model expectation formation and how policy announcements change plans. A masterclass in monetary economics.

Different economies all follow similar trajectories. As they develop, they move away from agriculture, and they eventually move away from manufacturing, towards service sector domination.
