@Xadeejournalist The debate was around using the gifts for monetary gains which remained the hallmark of IK and family.

[Muhammad Ehtisham @shamiawan1]

@ajmaljami I think the whole narrative was about re-selling of the gifts in the market. There is a difference between retaining a gift and then using the mechanism as a trade item. I hope objectivity should remain the top most priority of a journalist

Happy Sunday, #EconTwitter!

Struggling about how adjust your 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐫𝐝 𝐞𝐫𝐫𝐨𝐫𝐬 for 𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠?

Check out this #econometrics paper by Abadie, @Susan_Athey, @guido_imbens & @jmwooldridge, just out in @QJEHarvard.

Lots of fresh insights and solutions!

@deHAMMAD @AmjadHafeez19 Do you know the sequence of conception of the plants you are mentioning. If you know it then the tweet gets irrelevant

This 41 y.o. classic #ECMA article by 𝐇𝐚𝐥 𝐖𝐡𝐢𝐭𝐞 (@UCSD) is definitely one of my favorite #econometrics papers.

Short, focused, pathbreaking, well written, disruptive, theoretically super interesting, relevant in applications.

Simply amazing!

While prepping some slides on when/how to cluster your SEs, I came across this gem of a final bullet point from @metrics52's grad class (c. 2014)

On the right, my updated take (c/o @KhoaVuUmn)

Hi #EconTwitter!

Interested in analysing the causal effect of an intervention through a 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐟𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥 𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐲𝐬𝐢𝐬?

If you missed it, check out this cool #JASA paper by Masini (@Princeton) & @mcunhamedeiros (@UofIllinois), which allow for high dim data!

Hi #EconTwitter!

Interested in 𝐜𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐚𝐥 𝐢𝐧𝐟𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 using synthetic control methods?

Check out this new #Econometrica paper by Florian Gunsilius (@UMich)!

Useful for estimating causal effects on aggregate units when you have access to data at a finer granularity.

Quick @Stata tip: if you want to look at frequencies of a variable, "fre" displays both values and labels at the same time, while "tabulate" does not. To use "fre":

ssc install fre
fre variable_name

For economists interested in 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐕𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐬 estimation, here's a brand new @JEconometrics paper by M Keane and T Neal (@UNSW), showing yet again how problematic 2SLS inference can be.

Someone pointed out to me that I should use matching in my DiD model since my control and treatment groups differ in pre-treatment characteristics.

I couldn't remember exactly why this might be a bad idea until I remembered this great paper
