SUMMARY:Inaugural Collaborative Research Visit Seminar by Mathias Klein (Sveriges Riksbank)
DESCRIPTION:As of the summer of 2023\, GEAR decided to introduce occasional short-term Collaborative Visit Seminars for researchers who are interested to come for a day or two up to a week at Reading to present and potentially work with GEAR colleagues on joint projects. We shall be holding this seminar series on an irregular basis depending on possible visits by external faculty members or policy makers aiming to engage in collaboration(s) with GEAR. \nThe inaugural collaborative visit seminar will be given by Mathias Klein (Sveriges Riksbank) on Thursday\, 8 February 2024 at 2:30-4:00 pm GMT (London time) in Edith Morley 301 and the topic is Not All Supply Curves Slope Up (joint work with Edvin Ahlander and Evi Pappa). Abstract: We compile a unique firm-level data set containing information on prices and real output at the monthly frequency for a sample of Swedish industrial firms for more than 20 years and use it to estimate the short and medium run responses of prices and quantities to exogenous demand shocks. Inference on the supply slope is based on an IV regression of cumulative price growth on cumulative sales using global demand shocks as instruments. Not all supply curves slope upwards. The supply curve is flatter for firms with low market shares\, low productivity\, high unit labor costs and for exporting firms. The slope of the supply curve depends also on the aggregate state of the economy: individual supply curves are steeper in times of high capacity utilization\, high inflation and of low financial volatility. \nIt will be possible to join via MS Teams – but\, much better\, do come in person. Right after the collaborative visit seminar everyone is invited to a drinks reception from 4:00 to 4:30 pm in EM301.

SUMMARY:External Seminar by Enzo Dia (Università degli Studi di Milano-Bicocca)
DESCRIPTION:We are glad to welcome Enzo Dia at Reading. His talk will combine two papers on the same general topic: “Unconventional-Policy Spillovers of U.S. Interest on Reserves within Global Dollar-Denominated Retail Loan and Deposit Markets” and “Banking in a Monetary Union“\n\nHere’s the abstract of the first working paper: A linchpin of the Federal Reserve’s unconventional policies has been payment of interest on reserves\, of which 16 to 44 percent have been held by foreign banks with U.S. subsidiaries\, at a rate typically several basis points higher than other funds rates. This paper constructs a model with competition among domestic banks\, foreign banks with domestic subsidiaries\, and other foreign banks in dollar-denominated common and local retail markets for loans and deposits. The paper shows that the interest rate on reserves influences not only loan and deposit rates domestically but also in Euro dollar denominated foreign retail markets. We find that while the international Eurodollar market is somewhat insulated from both non-U.S. country-specific shocks and U.S. monetary policy shocks\, spillovers of U.S. monetary policy actions onto non-U.S. loan markets can be quite substantial.

SUMMARY:External Seminar by William Pouliot (University of Birmingham)
DESCRIPTION:Title: On kernel regression with NMAR response values\n \n\nAbstract: We consider the problem of kernel regression estimation in the presence of Not-Missing-At-Random (NMAR)\, or nonignorable\, response variables. Our  proposed approach involves two steps: In the first step\, we construct a family of models (possibly infinite dimensional) indexed by the unknown nonignorability component of the missing probability mechanism.  In the second step\, a search is carried out to find the empirically optimal member of an appropriate cover (or subclass) of  the underlying family in the sense of minimizing the mean squared prediction error. Our methods use a data-splitting  approach which is quite easy to implement.  We also derive exponential bounds on the performance of the resulting estimators in terms of their deviations from the true regression curve in general L_p norms\, where we also allow the size of the cover or subclass to diverge as the sample size n increases. These bounds together with the Borel-Cantelli lemma immediately yield various strong convergence results for the proposed estimators. As an application of our findings\, we consider the problem of nonparametric statistical classification based on the proposed regression estimators and also look into their rates of convergence in different settings. \n\nco-authors: M. Mojirsheibani and A. Shakhbandaryan\n\n \nYou can check out William’s latest research here: https://www.birmingham.ac.uk/staff/profiles/business/pouliot-william.aspx

During the era of job polarization\, fathers in cognitive jobs became relatively more likely to have sons in cognitive jobs\, while the rise in low–skilled manual jobs was mainly accounted for by children of routine workers. These facts\, among others\, are rationalized in an overlapping generations model where both financial resources and learning ability are transferred from parents to their children. Education choices are endogenous\, and the cost of education depends on the cognitive wage — hence both parents’ income and the economy-wide cognitive wage premium affect the education decision. The model is calibrated to the US economy and successfully captures key empirical patterns. Despite depressing routine wages\, altruistic preferences mean that routine workers born 1950-1965 experienced welfare gains due to RBTC. However\, these gains would be larger if the pace of technological change was slowed down. \n\n\n\nYou can check out Paul’s latest research papers here: https://sites.google.com/view/paultelemo/home

SUMMARY:External Seminar by Sukjin Han (University of Bristol)
DESCRIPTION:Title: Semiparametric Models for Dynamic Treatment Effects and Mediation Analyses with Observational Data\n\nAbstract: This paper proposes a semiparametric model that captures how a sequence of interventions interacts with a sequence of outcomes. In this setup\, the outcome at the given period is affected by the history of treatments and outcomes\, directly or indirectly through mediators. The main challenge in understanding various channels of dynamic effects is that\, in observational settings\, individuals make dynamically endogenous decisions whether to select into treatments. Using the approach of instrumental variables\, this paper shows how the average and quantile dynamic treatment effects and mediation effects can be point identified and efficiently estimated in a class of semiparametric models under treatment endogeneity and flexible heterogeneity. Our procedure only requires binary instruments. As a byproduct of our semiparametric specification\, we also identify and estimate parameters that reflect the degree of endogenous selection and time-invariant heterogeneity.\n\nYou can find out more about Sukjin’s research here: https://sukjinhan.com/

SUMMARY:ROSES Seminar by Karl Whelan (University College Dublin)
DESCRIPTION:Title: “Disagreement and Market Structure in Betting Markets: Theory and Evidence from European Soccer” \nAbstract: Online sports betting is growing rapidly around the world. We describe how the competitive structure of the bookmaking market affects odds when bettors disagree about the probabilities of the outcomes of sporting events. We show that the demand for bets on longshots is less sensitive to the odds than bets on favorites. This means monopolistic bookmakers will set odds exhibiting favorite-longshot bias while competitive bookmaking markets will not have this feature. We develop a version of the model for soccer matches and use these results to explain empirical findings on odds for about 80\,000 European soccer games from two different bookmaking markets. \nLink: https://www.ucd.ie/economics/t4media/WP23_12.pdf

The existing literature has extensively explored linear pools of forecasts of cumulative distribution functions or quantile functions. A general framework of combining methods is proposed\, which encompasses the existing linear pools. We analyse the statistical properties of the proposed generalized linear pools. The framework and theoretical findings enable the provision of recommendations regarding the choice of combining methods and scores to use in practice. An empirical illustration is provided on simulated and real data. \n\n\nYou can check out Xiaochun’s latest research here: https://profiles.sussex.ac.uk/p449675-xiaochun-meng
