I’m mainly staying off twitter during the market, but check out my website (in bio) to follow my research. My JMP offers a unified explanation for the productivity slowdown and the emergence of superstar firms based on changes in innovativeness across the firm size distribution

The economy has recovered the *number* of jobs lost in the pandemic, but not the same ones. Jobs have moved to different industries.

What surprises me most in this chart is the persistence of the Covid shock. Things did not go back to normal once lockdowns ended.

** The burst of high inflation in 2021-22: How and Why?

I just released a paper based on several talks I’ve given over many months (starting with Markus Academy @markuseconomist and ending with @BIS_org) on why monetary policy did not stop inflation rising in 2021-22 🧵

@imanelici @HeathrowAirport @united It was cancelled bc of a mechanical issue when we were already on the runway. But bc of all the other cancellations at Heathrow it's really hard to find alternatives out of here + every flight sold out. Good luck to you too, hope to catch up when we're both back!

[Jane Olmstead-Rumsey @janeor_econ]

I'm so excited to be presenting at my first (in-person) NBER EFG meetings on Saturday, now just hoping to make it there by then after falling victim to @HeathrowAirport and @united chaos today😑

[Jane Olmstead-Rumsey @janeor_econ]

my favorite part was being offered LHR>FRA>MUC>IAH>ORD>BOS arriving 6am Friday as a "better option" than my current flight (LHR>FRA>BOS) arriving 8:15pm on Friday

[Jane Olmstead-Rumsey @janeor_econ]

Preferences to work from home vary by demographic. This risks a mismatch if WFH days are set by senior managers without consulting employees.

.@FrancescaTruffa & @ashleyywong are super productive scholars with an exciting research agenda on gender in the labor market. JMP #1 is on the glass ceiling: Having more female MBA classmates helps women's careers, in part b/c they're steered toward female-friendly firms. 1/2
