What are the implications of excess global financial market volatility on economic growth? Are there threshold effects in the relationship between growth & excess global volatility for individual countries? How should we model the nonlinear effects in a multi-country setting? 1/n We answer these questions in recent work with Alexander Chudik @DallasFed, M Hashem Pesaran @USCDornsife @TrinCollCam, @mraissi80 @IMFNews & @arebucci1 @JHUCarey @cepr_org @nberpubs: ideas.repec.org/p/cam/camdae/2… #TGVAR 2/n

In a recent paper, with Alexander Chudik @DallasFed, M Hashem Pesaran @USCDornsife, @mraissi80 @IMFNews & @arebucci1 @JHUCarey, we develop a threshold-augmented dynamic multi-country model (#TGVAR) to quantify the #macroeconomic effects of #Covid19: econ.cam.ac.uk/research/cwpe-… 1/n Image Key challenges with the empirical #economic analysis of #Covid19 include the following: how to identify the shock, how to account for its non-linear effects, & how to quantify its effects while accounting for spillovers, common global factors, network effects and uncertainty. 2/n

Looking forward to chatting with potential @Cambridge_Uni economics candidates later today and answering any questions you have about #economics at #Cambridge (one of the oldest economics faculties in the world) or the wonderful @Kings_College. Did you know that @Kings_College has a long tradition in #economics?

It has been the home of many great economists, such as Richard Kahn, Nicholas Kaldor, John Maynard Keynes, Arthur Cecil Pigou, Joan Robinson, Richard Stone and Oliver Hart to name a few. Image

Just had our first virtual International #Iranian Economic Association (IIEA) Board Meeting. Great to connect with Board members from #Virginia, #Ohio, #Massachusetts, #Germany, #Qatar, #NewJersey, #California & the #UK. Look out for interesting #IIEA webinars soon. ImageImage Due to the novel #coronavirus (#COVID19) pandemic , the IIEA Board has reluctantly decided to postpone the Seventh International Conference on #Iran’s Economy (#IIEA2020) originally planned to be held at the Middle Eastern Studies Department, @CHSS_HBKU, @HBKU. #اقتصاد #ایران

Text-based data sources like #narratives and stories have become increasingly popular in providing critical insight in #energy research and social sciences in general. 1/n However, in many cases their implications in #policy application usually remain superficial and fail to fully exploit state-of-the-art resources which digital era holds for text based analysis. 2/n
