equilibrium approach that considers both demand and supply responses. We demonstrate that the equilibrium impact of capital gains ….e., capital gains taxes decrease supply). Depending on time periods and stock characteristics, either effect may dominate. Using …

Incomplete product availability is an important feature of many markets; ignoring changes in availability may bias demand estimates. We study a new dataset from a wireless inventory system installed on 54 vending machines to track product availability every four hours. The data allow us to...

going to understand boom-bust housing cycles, we must incorporate housing supply. In this paper, we present a simple model … of housing bubbles that predicts that places with more elastic housing supply have fewer and shorter bubbles, with … exclusively experienced in cities where housing supply is more inelastic. More elastic places had slightly larger increases in …

uncertainty about the identifying assumptions themselves. We use this approach to revisit the importance of shocks to oil supply … and demand. Supply disruptions turn out to be a bigger factor in historical oil price movements and inventory accumulation … a smaller factor than implied by earlier estimates. Supply shocks lead to a reduction in global economic activity after …

We present a new framework to identify demand and supply elasticities of agricultural commodities using yield shocks … using current-period shocks that give rise to exogenous shifts in supply. Supply is identified using past shocks, which … extremely inelastic, price response is muted by a significant supply response that is obscured if futures prices are not …
