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.

I combine variation from a kink in the Norwegian UI schedule with predicted unemployment risk for Norwegian workers to study these effects. I find a clear reduction in job mobility:
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.
