[Structural Econ Guy @structeconguy]

Have you ever wondered about the difference between "reduced form" and "structural" econometrics?

This video takes cues from @PhilHaile and argues that both methods exist on a single spectrum.

Policy takeaway: Regulators need different frameworks for two-sided markets. What looks like predatory pricing or discrimination might actually be welfare-enhancing in these contexts!

[OU Economics @OUeconomics]

We're proud of our professor Daniel Nedelescu for recently publishing this article in Networks and Spatial Economics!

The paper explores how conventional pricing policies affect two-sided markets like app stores, credit cards & dating sites

Fascinating example: When costs increase on one side of market, platforms often *lower* prices on the other side - opposite of what happens in regular markets. Shows complexity of balancing both sides!
