Best of #econtwitter - JMPs 2022 special edition, part nine

Dec 01, 2022

If your thread (or your student’s, or your colleague’s) is missing below, submissions are as always extremely welcome.

Previously: 2022 JMPs part one, part two, part three, part four, part five, part six, part seven, part eight. Editions from prior years are here.

As written last year: Plausibly these JMP editions have the highest densities of good content of all the newsletters. These are presented in even less of a sense of any order than usual.
