Exciting start of the 7th Behavioral Macroeconomics Workshop at @uni-bamberg.de with a great keynote lecture by James Bullard (former president of the @stlouisfed.bsky.social, now at Purdue). Touching upon optimal monetary policy with heterogeneous agents and distributional aspects. #econsky

Interesting work👇

dplyr.tidyverse.org, tidyr.tidyverse.org, and ggplot2.tidyverse.org now have an experimental "ask AI" button powered by kapa.ai. It uses the contents of all 3 sites to (hopefully!) better answer your tidyverse questions. This is very much an experiment so please let me know what you think! #rstats

And for everything related to econometric identification in SVAR models, the (preliminary) chapters and replication code of "Structural Vector Autoregressive Analysis" by Kilian and Lütkepohl - a masterpiece.

MONETARY POLICY RULES AND MACROECONOMIC STABILIZATION IN SMALL OPEN ECONOMIES UNDER BEHAVIORAL FX TRADING: INSIGHTS FROM NUMERICAL SIMULATIONS* In this paper the interaction between foreign exchange (FX) markets driven by trading based on behavioral forecasting rules and the macroeconomy of a small open economy is investigated. A special foc...

The earlier work of Proaño (@crproano.bsky.social) embedding bounded rationality (chartist-fundamentalist approach) in a small open economy macro model:

Graduate lecture notes (and extra course material) on Bayesian econometrics by Gary Koop.

Olivier Blanchard argues that we should understand better the macroeconomics of the medium run, and I could not agree more. Since I have been working on this for a while, let me show you why this is a promising field for young researchers!
