Bubbles are recurrent events, which contribute to both macroeconomic and employment volatility. We introduce stochastic bubbles in the standard search-and matching model of the labor market. The economy alternates between latent and bubbly states, each being associated with a distinct solution...

Financial markets and labor markets are linked: aggregate employment and stock market indices co-move positively and their volatility is comparable. While existing search-and-matching models perfectly capture the relative magnitude of these volatilities (Pissarides' law), they fail in predicting...
