Deadline in two weeks (March 26): LSE Corporate Governance Summer School for PhD students! Sept 7-10, London. Amil Dasgupta, Daniel Ferreira, Mike Burkart and I will teach cutting-edge corporate governance research. Link in the first reponse. Please share!

@EmanuelDerman @ClaudioVirili I hear you loud and clear...

@ClaudioVirili Agree. Glad I’m not teaching anymore. I wouldn’t want to deal with all the stuff.

I was talking to a scheduling woman at a hospital testing center today and everything she said to me was being dictated to her by an AI system I could hear prompting her in the background after I said something.

A right-wing Israeli mob came to my family’s home yesterday to search for me, threatening close family members who fled to another town in the middle of the night. I am still getting death threats and had to cancel my flight home. This happened after Israeli media and German politicians absurdly labeled my Berlinale award speech - where I called for equality between Israelis and Palestinians, a ceasefire and an end to apartheid - as ‘antisemitic’. The appalling misuse of this word by Germans, not only to silence Palestinian critics of Israel, but also to silence Israelis like me who support a ceasefire that will end the killing in Gaza and allow the release of the Israeli hostages - empties the word antisemitism of meaning and thus endangers Jews all over the world. As my grandmother was born in a concentration camp in Libya and most of my grandfather’s family was murdered by Germans in the holocaust, I find it particularly outraging that German politicians in 2024 have the audacity to weaponize this term against me in a way that endangered my family. But above all else, this behavior puts Palestinian co-director Basel Adra’s life in danger, who lives under a military occupation surrounded by violent settlements in Masafer Yatta. He is in far greater danger than I am. I’m happy our award winning film, No Other Land, is sparking an important international debate on this issue - and I hope that millions of people watch it when it comes out this year. Sparking a conversation is why we made it. You can have harsh criticism of what me and Basel said on stage without demonizing us. If this is what you’re doing with your guilt for the holocaust - I don’t want your guilt.

Congratulations @janschulz91 for an extraordinary PhD thesis and its defense two weeks ago--it was a privilege and an honor to be your supervisor! I tip my hat to you and wish @angebhard and you the very best of luck with life's greatest miracle... 😉🙏

@CR_Proano Hilarious 🤣👍🏼

🤣🤣🤣

Still super happy and honored to have received @eaepe’s Herbert Simon Prize 2022 for @MayerhofferD’s and my joint paper "A Network Approach to Consumption". #EconTwitter A thread.🧵[1/20]

Yay! Publicly funded research publicly available. Genius!

Advice for organizations: partner with academics as soon as you can. Why? Because academics are the world's most under-utilized resource. And, "pay" is low: we will work for data!

@nonergodicMark Glad for all your input, Mark! The 6% refers to the mean absolute deviation (MAD) from the median (the ML parameters for dispersion and scale in case of a Laplace distribution, which we observe in returns on assets).

@MishaMilakovic Downward volatility ??? or semi-variance like #HarryMarkowitz used to call it

Tongue-in-cheek, we have found the holy grail: an ergodic economic variable! Management Science Fast Track paper with @SimoneAlfarano2 and @PhilippCMundt (open access as of yesterday): tinyurl.com/mrycyj2x. A short 🧵 @nntaleb @ole_b_peters @DirkJenter

@nonergodicMark Of course, this does not help in understanding how to survive, which I think is very non-trivial.

@nonergodicMark Be careful. Profitability is not growth! (Since you handed me this one on a plate, I'm happy to oblige :-) dx.doi.org/10.1093/icc/dt… You can also restore profitability by shedding activities or spinning-off unprofitable subunits.
