Alejandro Justiniano was great economist and a wonderful, wonderful man, a true friend. He passed away way too early. I commend RED for the fitting special issue in his memory. economicdynamics.org/volume-…

If you are hyperventilating about the risk of a surge in #inflation, this may help (as does breathing out really slooooowly). "Excess savings" are not that excessive and "unlikely to unleash pent-up demand for services" #macroeconomics #monetarypolicy #econtwitter

Analysis on @LibertyStEcon suggests that “excess savings” accumulated by U.S. households since March 2020 are not that excessive when considered against the backdrop of government interventions, and unlikely to drive a surge in demand post-pandemic. nyfed.org/31NOEFK

I'm so old I can remember 4 (or more, depending how you count them) *different* stories about why the Central Bank raising interest rates would cause inflation to *rise*. Have I thought about this possibility? Oh yes. Let's go through them. 1/n

Overestimating the level of the natural rate of interest, or r-star, can have greater costs than underestimating it. Our latest #EconomicLetter explains how such policy misperceptions affect #unemployment and #inflation: sffed.us/3bl3vNO #SFFedResearch #EconTwitter #RStar
