Thank you, @bde_Research for this excellent conference and many very good comments (in particular from our discussant Silvana Tenreyro) on our paper on the pass-through of firms‘ inflation expectations into prices and wages (with Klaus, @FunkAnneKathrin@M_L_a_m_l_a and Stefanie)
If you’re a macroeconomist, I know women who are working to coordinate victims/witnesses to report bad behavior, and have received messages offering to corroborate reports if particular victims come forward. The stories I’m hearing from that field are terrible; I’m so sorry.
How gendered is the clothing offer for children? For our @SZ data analysis, we examined 20,000 shirts and shorts from @hmdeutschland, @Zalando and @aboutyou_com that they offer online for children under 10. The results show: Current children's fashion cements gender images. 🧵
So excited that our paper "Do Sticky Wages Matter?" is being published in @EconomicaLSE!
We find that wage rigidity is a pervasive phenomena in the (flexible) Swiss labour market, causing adverse effects on employment after a deflationary shock.

"Supply bottlenecks have driven inflation increases."
BIS study's current inflation estimates without bottlenecks:
- inflation in €zone ~1.5%
- inflation in US ~2.5%
Increasing interest rates is not the right response to these supply bottlenecks?!!

According to current calculations by @StatSchweiz#inflation rose to 1.2% in October. The KOF graph below shows that this development is essentially driven by rising prices for food and energy. More on this in the #KOF#Bulletin on Friday.
Inflationsinsel Schweiz? «In Ländern wie den USA tragen wenige Güter wie Miet- und Gebrauchtwagen sehr stark zum allgemeinen #Preisanstieg bei, in der Schweiz ist das nicht zu beobachten», erklärt KOF-Ökonomin @FunkAnneKathrin im Gespräch mit @FuW_News. https://t.co/6wkZMNZjPI
