Best of #econtwitter - JMPs 2022 special edition, part three
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. 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.
Job market papers
Alistair Macaulay@AlistairMacaul7
Expectations of inflation/unemployment/etc feature heavily in policy (esp. this year).
But expectations aren't some universal variable that's the same for everyone – people disagree about macro variables all the time!
Should you care? My JMP shows you should!

Who drives this effect? Who gains or loses?
Women -- who made up the lion's share of the part-time jobs pre-reform -- see their jobs and hours reduced most in the aggregate and at the firm level.
Pauline puts it best:
“Female workers were replaced by full-time male workers.”

My JMP shows that venture capital-backed companies strategically bunch at a $1B valuation to impress employees who interpret unicorn status (private companies with a valuation of $1 billion or higher) as a signal of higher compensation.

A small🧵[1/5]
Econ Job Market Helper @econ_jmp
Do demographic trends influence the effectiveness of monetary policy?
Giacomo Mangiante @MangianteGiaco shows that consumption heterogeneity across age groups and changes in population distribution significantly affect the transmission of monetary policy shocks! https://t.co/XNNMx0ymlD

1/10 Hi #EconTwitter – I want to tell you about my JMP "Freelancing and the Value of Flexible Work"
In this paper, I study a modern labor market trend – many workers (such as freelancers) are able to choose their hours flexibly. I quantify the value of this flexible hours choice
