We started a project with Marcus and Anton Nakov a few months ago, and have had some extremely thought-stimulating calls.
Perhaps the most vivid memory is from a call on Dec 24th, when after an almost 3-h brainstorm we got the code to run. We called it a Christmas miracle!
RIP Marcus

Very sad news...the days that Marcus brought German intensity (and commentary) to the foosball table in McNeil seem only yesterday. My thoughts are with his family & friends. Rest in peace, Marcus.

With great sadness, I announce the passing of my co-author and friend, Marcus Hagedorn. His acerbic wit was as sharp as the vision of Toni Kroos. He attacked big research questions like he tackled the mountains of Mallorca on his bike. He will be missed.

Come work with me on a cool project using administrative data! Position can be remote, but needs to be in the EU for data access reasons. Mostly working with Swedish data, so knowledge of a Scandinavian language is strongly preferred.

DP19823 Stimulus Effects of Common Fiscal Policies
We study the output responses to common fiscal policies in a macroeconomic framework with a frictional labor market, incomplete asset market and nominal rigidities. The frame- work admits data-consistent dynamics of hiring and firing and consumption responses to job loss, making it suitable for comparing the stabilizing effects of several household transfer policies and firm subsidies. Despite its richness, the modelβs sequence-space representation is analytically tractable as a directed cycle graph between three blocks. This allows an βinformation-poorβ ranking of fiscal multipliers on the basis of their partial-equilibrium fiscal costs alone, and identifies their key determinants. A baseline calibration predicts large differences in fiscal multipliers across policies. Relative to an increase in government consumption, the efficacy of universal or conditional transfers to households hinges on the degree of partial consumption insurance (through marginal propensities to consume and the response of precautionary savings). The relative efficacy of firm transfers depends on the elasticities of vacancies and separations to job values, the marginal propensity to consume out of dividend income, and the degree of nominal frictions.
New Paper! This time with a thread.
What determines the output effect of different fiscal stimulus policies? We offer a model, some analytical insights, and some numbers to help answer this.
Joint with Tobias Broer, @jeppedruedahl.bsky.social and @harmenberg.bsky.social
