We estimate the changes in US male labor market risk over the last three decades in a model of endogenous labor supply and job mobility. Across education groups permanent shocks to productivity have become more dispersed. Moreover, heterogeneity in pay across offered jobs has increased for...

In this paper, I show that the decline in household consumption during unemployment spells depends on both liquid and … illiquid asset positions. I also provide evidence that unemployment spells predict the withdrawal of illiquid assets …, particularly when households have few liquid assets. Motivated by these findings, I embed endogenous unemployment risk in a two …
