David Beckworth@DavidBeckworth·
Thrilled to have @BasilHalperin join the podcast. Three big points discussed: (1) AI could supercharge growth, but bond markets aren’t buying the hype as evidence by real interest rates; (2) inflation targeting not an optimal response to AI supercharged growth... (1/2)
Macro Musings@Macro_Musings

New episode! Basil Halperin on Macroeconomic Policy in an Age of Transformative AI @BasilHalperin and @DavidBeckworth discuss the famous but flawed Citrini essay, why Silicon Valley’s growth expectations aren’t showing up yet in interest rates, the impact of Less Than Zero by George Selgin, what the true frictions in the economy are, the differences between Calvo and menu-cost pricing, the impact of transformational AI on emerging economies and the housing market, and much more. youtu.be/amo1k8M25es

1/ New with @serdarozkanEN: using the St. Louis Fed DSGE model, we ask whether expectations of future AI-driven productivity gains can raise inflation today. We argue that they can, and that the Fed's response matters a lot. stlouisfed.org/on-the-economy…

What happened since Wednesday in the US repo money markets? Why did banks have to borrow $15.1bn from the Fed's recent lending facility? Could we see this coming? What does it imply for QT? (good clues in this thread...) [1/5] ft.com/content/60663a… via @ft

With great sadness, I announce the passing of my co-author and friend, Marcus Hagedorn. His acerbic wit was as sharp as the vision of Toni Kroos. He attacked big research questions like he tackled the mountains of Mallorca on his bike. He will be missed.

If you read the word “manufacturing” to stand for accessible middle class jobs (with rising real wages), these results make a lot more sense. The bigger issue is how many people believe manufacturing jobs are the solution to stagnant income growth.
Frank Luntz@FrankLuntz

“America would be better off if more people worked in manufacturing.” • 80% of Americans agree • 20% disagree “I would be better off if I worked in a factory.” • 25% of Americans agree • 73% disagree • 2% currently work in a factory 👉🏻 cato.org/sites/cato.org…
