In our paper, we argue that pure panic narrative of a financial crisis depends crucially on the nonexistence of outside capital. If people know that the run is due to pure panic, outside investors have a huge incentive to invest and make tons of money. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

Food for thought! "Dominant Currency Pricing and Currency Risk Premia" by Husnu C. Dalgic and Galip Kemal Ozhan. "This paper studies how dominant-currency pricing affects currency risk premia. Empirically, we extract common risk factors from excess currency returns using principal components and relate countries’ factor exposures to observable macroeconomic characteristics, with export dollar invoicing emerging as a predictor of carry-trade exposure. A small open-economy model with dominant-currency pricing and dollar-denominated liabilities explains why. Dollar export invoicing weakens the exchange rate’s stabilizing effect on external demand, while dollar debt makes depreciation costly for leveraged intermediaries. When the two frictions interact, depreciations occur in bad states, local-currency assets become risky, the currency premium rises, and the risk-adjusted neutral rate increases. Under a standard Taylor rule, this mechanism generates persistently higher inflation." dropbox.com/scl/fi/sc5571ywv…

Cool paper from my coauthor 👇🏼
I'm thrilled to see this tweet! I learned a lot from comments by the editor and the referees. It all started with me knocking on the door of @gprimice to tell him "I think I have a good idea".

I find this sentence from the abstract highly problematic "infrastructure spending can raise support for autocracy" People like infrastructure and certainly it can also raise support for democracy. If anything, it should tempt politicians to invest more in housing and roads

I stopped reading The Economist when I realized how shallow their coverage of Turkey is—calling a cult leader a "scholar"? How can I trust their insights on Asia or the Middle East after that?
Through his teaching, Fethullah Gulen became the second-most-powerful man in Turkey, with only President Recep Tayyip Erdogan surpassing him. But for the last years of his life, the scholar-preacher was a wanted man in exile econ.st/40hzrvU Photo: Getty Images

A new version of the paper by my favorite economist
New version of my paper "Young, Educated, Unemployed" I analyze an unusual fact of higher unemployment rates among college graduates. Productivity channel is crucial in explaining relative unemployment rates & labor market frictions are crucial in estimating relative efficiencies

In a recent paper w/ @APFerrero @HughLi85363603 we employ a similar approach (panel VAR + estimated DSGE) to ask: - Does a flexible FX regime provide enough insulation to US monetary policy socks? - Are additional instruments necessary for domestic monetary policy independence?

1) Most dollar debt in EMEs is domestically financed. In the median EME, foreign currency debt (Mostly by non-financial firms) is roughly equal to foreign currency deposits (Mostly by households)

Short summary of the paper xitter.cf/IERJournal/status/1758…
Replying to @IERJournal
In EMEs, significant portion of financial intermediation occurs in dollars, viewed as financial vulnerability. This paper draws attention to insurance benefit of dollarization: EME Exchange rates depreciate in recessions so households prefer dollar deposits.
