We document that home ownership of households with heads aged 25-44 years fell substantially between 1980 and 2000 and recovered only partially during the 2001{2005 housing boom. The 1980{2000 decline in young home ownership occurred as improvements in mortgage opportunities made it easier to...

We document that home ownership of households with "heads" aged 25-44 years fell substantially between 1980 and 2000 and recovered only partially during the 2001{2005 housing boom. The 1980{2000 decline in young home ownership occurred as improvements in mortgage opportunities made it easier to...

This paper follows the methodology developed by J. M. Keynes in his How to Pay for the War pamphlet to estimate the “costs” of the Green New Deal (GND) in terms of resource requirements. Instead of simply adding up estimates of the government spending that would be required, we assess...

We introduce a new measure of own-price inflation uncertainty using firm-level data from a large and representative survey of UK businesses. Inflation uncertainty increased significantly from the start of 2021 and reached a peak in the second half of 2022, even as a similar measure of sales...

We document the decline in market power of the U.K. in safe assets and quantify the resulting losses. We estimate an increasing elasticity of demand for U.K. public debt during the latter half of the 20th century. This is in sharp contrast to the U.S., which displays the opposite pattern with...

This paper studies the effectiveness of forward guidance when central banks have imperfect credibility. Exploiting unique survey-based measures of expected inflation, output growth, and interest rates, we estimate a small-scale New Keynesian model for the United States and other G7 countries...

This paper examines the utility of the money cycle with and without mixed savings. This means that examined the critical points of tax and public policy that are the best for increasing consumption and investment, subject to the presence of mixed savings and the absence of mixed savings. As a...
