We translate the regional consumption responses to an aggregate fiscal multiplier using a multi-region, New … multiplier, a result that distinguishes our incomplete markets model from models with complete markets. The aggregate consumption … multiplier is 0.64, which implies an output multiplier higher than one. The aggregate consumption multiplier is larger than the …

The cross-sectional dynamics of the U.S. business cycle is examined through the lens of quantile regression models. Conditioning the quantiles of firm-level growth to different measures of technological change highlights a deep connection between counter-cyclical skewness and the transmission of...

We study the impact of climate volatility on economic growth exploiting data on 133 countries between 1960 and 2005. We show that the conditional (ex ante) volatility of annual temperatures increased steadily over time, rendering climate conditions less predictable across countries, with...
