Thrilled to share that I have two papers in the May issue of QE. Different papers, but related through the oil market; one on the shale supply, and one via the financial markets. Thanks to my fantastic co-authors: Knut Are Aastveit, @tsgundersen, Yoosoon Chang and Jamie Cross
Quantitative Economics Volume 17, Issue 2 (May 2026) is now online econometricsociety.org/publi…

On the @greg_ip point: 🥁New Working Paper Alert🥁 Why has the European labor income share evolved differently than in the US? A new paper with @DBergholt @nmaffeifaccioli and Evi Pappa explores the "Transatlantic Divide" in labor share dynamics from 1960–2023. #EconTwitter 1/N
Labor's share of output (nonfarm business) fell to 54.1% in the first quarter, the lowest since records begin going back to 1947. "not so good news for society and our politics" - @KrishnaRSGuha

Prof. @nmaffeifaccioli and I are super happy to be @SantAnnaPisa for our annual course on Empirical Macroeconomics. Nicolo’ teaches econometrics of SVAR models while I teach applications (Phillips curve, inflation surge, hysteresis, inequality, labor share, immigration). Pisa 🥰

We formalize this mechanism within a two-agent New Keynesian search-and-matching model with imperfect information in which women’s pessimistic beliefs about underlying shocks generate their differential response to inflation.

Working paper alert 🥁 #econtwitter "Divergent Perceptions, Divergent Pay: Inflation and the Gender Wage Gap" with @LovisaReiche Link here: ora.ox.ac.uk/objects/uuid:c0… We establish a new link between inflation dynamics and the gender wage gap. We document two facts:

Fact 2: Women interpret inflation as a signal of deteriorating conditions in the labor market, while men perceive mild improvement. These divergent beliefs reduce women’s willingness to negotiate, slowing their nominal wage growth relative to men’s.

To formalize this mechanism, we develop a New Keynesian search-and-matching model where workers do not observe the true nature of the shock and women form ambiguity averse beliefs. The model replicates the observed cyclicality of the gender wage gap.

Our paper is out in AEJ Macro! What drives the recent inflation surge? #EconTwitter

What this means: models that exhibit very similar IRFs to demand and supply shocks may imply wildly different historical decompositions of, for example, the recent inflation surge.

We propose different approaches to shrink the uncertainty around the estimated deterministic component. Once this uncertainty is taken care of, demand shocks are the main drivers of the inflation surge in the United States, the euro area, and in four small open economies.
