Logarithms are ubiquitous in economics. They allow you to conveniently express percentage changes. However, your data includes a zero, the log representation breaks. It turns out that there is no solution fully robust to the choice of units used! 1/

Blogpost based on my recent WP joint w @DavidPapell & @__SwatiSingh__ . In the backdrop of the @federalreserve's 2025 Strategic Review, we propose two Monetary Policy Rules that the Fed could consider that we find are better than traditional rules.

Last day of class pic. And probably my last ever class as a student.
The pic is from a mini-course on Macro-Finance offered by Emilio Espinosa (@utditella) who was visiting our department for the semester.

Deep learning (DL) is proving remarkably effective at solving dynamic models in economics:

Curiously, DL often yields stable solutions without explicitly imposing boundary conditions (e.g., transversality).
Why does this work? A short thread 🧵👇

PhD and research feels like a rollercoaster ride. One day my results are great, next day I feel a different specification can make them insignificant. One day I feel the results are new/interesting, next day I find a paper that already answers the qn.
I guess this is normal.

I filed taxes jointly with my wife this year. After looking at the return we will get, I highly recommend marrying !
