This was a fun and very informative event, at least for me. You can watch it in its entirety here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=7G-F... My presentation starts at around minute 13. Thanks again to the organizers for the kind invitation!

Thrilled to see our decade-long research agenda with Teresa Fort and Felix Tintelnot on firm-level approaches to global value chains featured in the latest NBER Reporter. What a ride! Link: www.nber.org/reporter/202...

I am very much looking forward to this event in Stockholm in October. If you are a local, and want to attend, you can find more information here: www.kommerskollegium.se/en/analyses-...

Sounds like a fantastic event!

1/ 📢 New paper alert! 📄 Together with Vitalii Tubdenov, we propose a measure of the "Average Period of Production" (APP) to capture the temporal dimension of production processes. It is inspired by Böhm-Bawerk’s capital theory.

What would be the impact of Trump's announced 25% tariff on all steel and aluminium imports? Lydia Cox's (coxlydia.com) job-market paper, now an R&R at the American Economic Review, provides good guidance. Latest version is here (coxlydia.com/papers/cox_s...).
