Business cycle asymmetries and the labor market
Kohlbrecher, Britta; Merkl, Christian - 2022
This paper shows that a search and matching model with idiosyncratic training cost shocks can explain the asymmetric movement of the job-finding rate over the business cycle and the decline of matching efficiency in recessions. Large negative aggregate shocks move the hiring cutoff into a part...

The inflation-output tradeoff: which type of labor market rigidity is to be blamed?
Merkl, Christian - 2009
In the standard New Keynesian sticky price model the central bank faces no contradiction between the stabilization of inflation and the stabilization of the welfare relevant output gap after a productivity shock hits the economy. When the standard model is enhanced by real wage rigidities or...
