We present evidence that air pollution negatively affects current well-being. To do so, we create a new dataset, matching particulate matter concentration at the exact day and location with individual-level survey responses about current life satisfaction. The panel structure of our data allows...

Using firm-level survey data from Germany, this paper asks how do supply constraints propagate monetary policy shocks? To answer this question, we first offer a general discussion on the measurement of supply constraints. We show that capacity utilization, a widely accepted measure of...

We study price-setting behavior in German firm-level survey data to infer the relative importance of supply and demand during the Covid-19 pandemic. Supply and demand forces coexist, but demand shortages dominate in the short run. A reported negative impact of Covid19 on current business is...
