It is rarely possible to predict recession before it has begun to show up in empl or production statistics. But unbelievably chaotic Trump policies re tariffs, federal personnel & so on already show up in leadng indicators: stock market, confidence... m.economictimes.com/news/internati…

Experts have long favored a reform to help reduce US airport congestion, flying times, delays, cancellations, & near-misses: move Air Traffic Control outside the #FAA, funded by user fees, as in other countries. The corporate jet lobby blocks it. @ProSyn prosyn.org/gY4OQu2
In celebration of #UDHR75, our new publication "Making a Movement: The History and Future of Human Rights," contains essays from 90 @Harvard faculty and affiliates on the intersection of human rights and racial justice, economics, climate change, and more: bit.ly/75udhr
Perhaps #inflation's rise & fall were due to the start & end of supply chain disruptions. If so, the @federalreserve did it about right.
Perhaps #inflation's rise & fall were due to the start & end of supply chain disruptions. If so, the @federalreserve did it about right.
US 12-mo CPI inflation = 3.2 %. Does the @federalreserve deserve credit for disinflation, notwithstanding that the usual channel via dampened GDP & jobs is not visible? Yes -- with a big assist from the resolution of pandemic supply disruptions. @ProSyn prosyn.org/wc5T7I1
Nov. 2012, the CCP decided market-oriented reforms to sustain China growth. GDP was to surpass the US by 2021. Instead, Chinese GDP slowed, & may not catch US until 2035. One reason: the reforms were not implemented. Xi put political control over growth. jeffrey-frankel.com/2023/10/23/chi…
Evidence in small countries that tradable goods, both exports & imports, are $-priced, has led to the DCP paradigm (e.g. @GitaGopinath, 2015). But it could as easily support the old Salter-Swan Small Open Economy model, which needs reviving. cepr.org/voxeu/columns/… via @cepr_org
Last week, I gave my take on 4 @NaomiAKlein books. Her Shock Doctrine said conservatives use crises to enact changes. Eg, Bush & 9/11. I said liberals do this too. Eg, Obama & 2008 GFC. Some readers wrongly thought I was equating the two morally. My blog: jeffrey-frankel.com/2023/09/21/nao…
.@NaomiAKlein’s impressive new book, Doppleganger, is an occasion to reflect on her “brand.” Her past books seem to me off-target: No Logo re corporate brands; Shock Doctrine re conservatives; This Changes Everything re capitalism causing climate change. prosyn.org/axckBNy

“My best guess is that Trump will be convicted on one or more counts,” writes @Kennedy_School’s @JFrankelEcon, “but will not serve time.” Read his full prediction in a new PS Big Question. bit.ly/47Cj2nf

Monetary economists before 1998: zero interest rates are only a theoretical curiosum from Keynes. 1998-2008: zero rates apply only to Japan. 2008-2022: the world is stuck with the ZLB as a constraint from now on. 2023: It may be time for another re-think. theguardian.com/business/2023/…
When nominal & real interest rates were ≤ 0, @LHSummers & @ojblanchard1 had us convinced the natural interest rate would stay low indefinitely, on average. Many still think rates, currently 5 % (st nominal), will revert to ≈ 0. But what if that’s wrong? jeffrey-frankel.com/2023/08/14/the…
