Many thanks @Jonheathcote - studying the progressivity of US state governments with you, @KStoresletten & @glviolante is a genuine privilege and pleasure! My other working papers & projects + Julia package ๐ค -> #EconTwitter #JuliaLang @JuliaLanguage
Johannes is a great student -- & co-author! His exciting JMP is about variation across US states in MPCs out of stimulus checks (a la @ProfJAParker & Souleles). He correlates this variation with cross-state variation in tax progressivity & connects the two in a structural model.

Congrats @pgpiacquadio! Very well-deserved
This is a great honor for me! Thanks to the EEA and the editors of JEEA. Despite my head of department warmly suggests I focus on writing papers (for tenure sake), I find refereeing really important and rewarding. So I am really happy of this award!

"You can suspend many things. But not gravity, the speed of light and other facts."
Chancellor Angela Merkel urged Germans to heed scientists' warnings and calls for stricter lockdown measures. "Europe is where it is today thanks to the Enlightenment and the belief that there are scientific findings which are real and should be followed."

@voxeu @ecb @Adrian_Mo_ @stroebel_econ @StefanoGiglioEc @m_maggiori @ProfJAParker 4/4 Take away: 1) EU portfolio heterogeneity is also driven by cross-country differences in beliefs 2) How much do beliefs matter relative to other relevant factors? -> More research needed 3) Erosion of trust in social and communal institutions can show up in portfolios
