Excited to be co-organizing a new annual workshop in Sydney, first edition this December 16, 17, hosted by e61 Institute and Macquarie University. A key part of the workshop is exposing international researchers to the amazing microdata available in Australia! Send us your papers!

Not exactly a “professor” 🤣, truth be told, but I hope folks will learn a thing or two! I enjoyed giving this course in the past and I look forward to it this year!

This is a persistent refusal to acknowledge the evidence. Yes, soaring house prices following the CGT discount in 2000 was actually a coincidence. Prices also soared in countries that didn't touch their taxation of housing. 1/7

My interview with Janet Yellen for Financial Review. Among many fascinating things we discussed, she told me of formal, academic economics: “I think it’s highly relevant, and I don’t really see how you can make effective policy if you don’t have some sort of framework of analysis

Oh dear. Ross Gittins is at it again. Today he claims that while microeconomists take market power seriously, macroeconomists don't. He says: "every macroeconomist assumes–explicitly or implicitly–that market power isn’t a relevant problem." Wrong. 1/🧵 smh.com.au/business/the-e…
