People often delay starting college or temporarily leave college to work. To examine the welfare implications of intermittent college attendance, I incorporate flexible age-by-age college enrollment choice in a life-cycle model in general equilibrium. College serves as an investment device for the young and reduces risk for the old. Removing flexible access reduces the total welfare value of college by one quarter. Moreover, higher wealth and better human capital preparedness at age 18 incentivize early-age degree completion. However, accessing college at a later age matters more for those who are initially less advantaged. Thus, policies that alleviate financial costs generate considerable long-term welfare improvements.
人们经常推迟上大学的时间,或者暂时离开大学去工作。为了检验间歇性大学入学对福利的影响,我在一般均衡的生命周期模型中纳入了灵活的按年龄的大学入学选择。大学对年轻人来说是一种投资工具,对老年人来说是降低风险的工具。取消灵活入学使大学的总福利价值减少了四分之一。此外,18岁时更高的财富和更好的人力资本准备会激励人们尽早完成学位。然而,对于那些最初处于劣势的人来说,在较晚的年龄进入大学更重要。因此,减轻财政成本的政策会产生相当大的长期福利改善。

Two main business cycle shocks are better than one 两个主要的商业周期冲击总比一个冲击好

A recent influential study based on a Structural VAR with frequency-domain identification argues that most cyclical fluctuations in real activity are driven by a single shock. We revisit this view using a large-dimensional Dynamic Factor Model estimated on more than 100 U.S. macroeconomic series. Our data-rich approach uncovers two main shocks that jointly drive the business cycle: one transitory and demand-like, the other persistent and supply-like. This two-shock structure explains the bulk of both business-cycle and long-run fluctuations in key macroeconomic aggregates. The findings support a classical AD-AS interpretation and challenge the notion of a single dominant business-cycle shock.
最近一项基于频域识别的结构VAR的有影响力的研究认为,实际经济活动中的大多数周期性波动是由单一冲击驱动的。我们使用一个估计超过100 美国的大维度动态因子模型来重新审视这一观点宏观经济系列。我们的数据丰富的方法揭示了共同推动商业周期的两个主要冲击:一个是短暂的、类似需求的冲击,另一个是持续的、类似供应的冲击。这种双重冲击结构解释了主要宏观经济总量的大部分商业周期和长期波动。研究结果支持了经典的AD-AS解释,并挑战了单一主导商业周期冲击的概念。

Estimation of nonlinear DSGE models through Laplace based solutions 基于拉普拉斯解的非线性DSGE模型估计

This paper proposes a novel Laplace-based solution to non-linear DSGE models that has a closed-form likelihood. We implicitly use a non-linear approximation to the policy function that is invertible with respect to the shocks, implying that in the approximation the shocks can be recovered uniquely from some of the control variables. Using perturbation methods and a Lagrange inversion formula, we are able to calculate the derivatives of the likelihood and construct the Laplace based solution. In contrast with previous likelihood-based approaches, the method used here requires neither the introduction of linear shocks nor simulation to evaluate the likelihood. Using US data, we estimate linear and nonlinear variants of a well-known neoclassical growth model with and without time-varying variances. We find that a nonlinear heteroscedastic model has a much better empirical performance. Furthermore, our models allow us to ascertain that the monetary policy shock causes most of the time changes in economic uncertainty.
本文提出了一种新颖的基于拉普拉斯的具有闭似然的非线性DSGE模型求解方法。我们隐式地使用对冲击可逆的策略函数的非线性近似,这意味着在近似中,冲击可以从一些控制变量中唯一地恢复。利用摄动方法和拉格朗日反演公式,我们能够计算出似然的导数,并构造出基于拉普拉斯的解。与以前基于似然的方法相比,这里使用的方法既不需要引入线性冲击,也不需要模拟来评估似然。利用美国的数据,我们估计了一个著名的新古典增长模型的线性和非线性变量,有时变方差和没有时变方差。我们发现非线性异方差模型具有更好的经验性能。此外,我们的模型使我们能够确定货币政策冲击在大多数情况下导致经济不确定性的变化。

This paper studies uncertainty shocks in the context of an intangible economy. I build a two-sector dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) model to understand a shift in investment composition and its implications for the transmission of uncertainty shocks. The model is motivated by the role of intangible capital as a cushion, mitigating the adverse effects of uncertainty on investment, as suggested by firm-level data. The quantitative analysis shows that heightened uncertainty directs resources toward the intangible sector, making the economy more intangible-intensive. The rising importance of intangibles diminishes aggregate volatility in the uncertainty-driven business cycle.
本文研究了无形经济背景下的不确定性冲击。我建立了一个两部门动态随机一般均衡(DSGE)模型来理解投资构成的转变及其对不确定性冲击传导的影响。正如公司层面的数据所表明的那样,该模型的动机是无形资本作为缓冲的作用,减轻了不确定性对投资的不利影响。定量分析表明,不确定性的增加将资源引向无形部门,使经济更加无形密集。在不确定性驱动的商业周期中,无形资产重要性的上升降低了总波动性。

Optimal credit market policy 最优信贷市场政策

We study optimal credit market policy in a stochastic, quantitative, general equilibrium, infinite-horizon economy with collateral constraints tied to housing prices. Collateral constraints imply that the competitive equilibrium is Pareto inefficient. Taxing housing or borrowing in good states and subsidizing it in recessions leads to a Pareto-improving allocation for borrowers and savers. Quantitatively, the welfare gains afforded by the optimal tax are significant. The optimal tax reduces the covariance of house prices with consumption, and, by doing so, it increases house prices on average and delivers welfare gains both in steady state and around it. We also show that the welfare gains stem from mopping up after the crash rather than the ex-ante macroprudential aspect, aligning with prior research that emphasizes the importance of ex-post measures compared to preventive policies alone.
我们研究了一个随机、定量、一般均衡、无限视界经济中抵押约束与房价挂钩的最优信贷市场政策。附带约束意味着竞争均衡是帕累托无效率的。在经济状况良好的州对住房或借贷征税,并在经济衰退时对其进行补贴,会导致借款人和储蓄者的帕累托分配得到改善。从数量上讲,最优税收所带来的福利收益是显著的。最优税收减少了房价与消费的协方差,这样做,它提高了房价的平均水平,并在稳定状态和稳定状态附近提供了福利收益。我们还表明,福利收益源于崩溃后的清理,而不是事前的宏观审慎方面,与先前的研究一致,强调事后措施与单独的预防性政策相比的重要性。

Scalable global solution techniques for high-dimensional models in Dynare Dynare中高维模型的可伸缩全局解决方案技术

For over three decades, Dynare has been a cornerstone of dynamic stochastic modeling in economics, relying primarily on perturbation-based local solution methods. However, these techniques often falter in high-dimensional, non-linear models that demand more comprehensive approaches. This paper demonstrates that global solutions of economic models with substantial heterogeneity and frictions can be computed accurately and swiftly by augmenting Dynare with adaptive sparse grids (SGs) and high-dimensional model representation (HDMR). SGs mitigate the curse of dimensionality, as the number of grid points grows significantly slower than in traditional tensor-product Cartesian grids. Additionally, adaptivity focuses grid refinement on regions with steep gradients or non-differentiabilities, enhancing computational efficiency. Complementing SGs, HDMR tackles large state spaces by approximating policy functions with a hierarchical expansion of low-dimensional terms. Using a time iteration algorithm, we benchmark our approach on an international real business cycle model. Our results show that both SGs and HDMR alleviate the curse of dimensionality, enabling accurate solutions for at least 100-dimensional models on standard hardware in relatively short times. This advancement extends Dynare’s capabilities beyond perturbation approaches, establishing a versatile platform for sophisticated non-linear models and paving the way for integrating the most recent global solution methods, such as those from machine learning.
三十多年来,Dynare一直是经济学中动态随机建模的基石,主要依靠基于摄动的局部解方法。然而,这些技术在需要更全面的方法的高维非线性模型中经常出现问题。本文证明了通过自适应稀疏网格(SGs)和高维模型表示(HDMR)增强动态模型,可以准确、快速地计算具有大量异质性和摩擦的经济模型的全局解。SGs减轻了维度的诅咒,因为网格点的数量增长明显慢于传统的张量积笛卡尔网格。此外,自适应将网格细化重点放在陡峭梯度或不可微区域,提高了计算效率。作为一种补充,HDMR通过使用低维项的分层扩展来近似策略函数来处理大型状态空间。我们使用时间迭代算法,将我们的方法作为国际真实商业周期模型的基准。我们的研究结果表明,SGs和HDMR都缓解了维度的诅咒,在相对较短的时间内为标准硬件上的至少100维模型提供了准确的解决方案。这一进步将Dynare的功能扩展到摄动方法之外,为复杂的非线性模型建立了一个通用平台,并为集成最新的全局解决方案方法(如机器学习方法)铺平了道路。

This paper analyses the pass-through of gas shocks to inflation in the euro area. First, it uses a Bayesian Structural Vector Autoregressive (BSVAR) framework to estimate the effects of gas supply shocks on headline inflation in the euro area and its four largest economies. A gas supply shock that increases gas prices by 10 % raises euro area headline inflation by 0.6 percentage points after one year. The transmission of gas supply shocks is driven by direct and indirect effects, i.e. by households consuming gas products and by second-round effects through production costs. We document cross-country heterogeneity arising from differences in reliance on energy commodities across consumption and production, as well as from variation in the regulation of retail energy prices. Second, we build a New Keynesian Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (NK-DSGE) model augmented with energy and show that indirect effects account for approximately 75 % of the cumulative response of headline inflation after three years.
本文分析了欧元区天然气冲击对通胀的传导作用。首先,它使用贝叶斯结构向量自回归(BSVAR)框架来估计天然气供应冲击对欧元区及其四大经济体总体通胀的影响。天然气供应的冲击使天然气价格上涨10%,一年后使欧元区的总体通货膨胀率上升0.6个百分点。天然气供应冲击的传导是由直接和间接影响驱动的,即由消费天然气产品的家庭和通过生产成本产生的第二轮影响驱动。我们记录了由于消费和生产对能源商品依赖程度的差异以及零售能源价格监管的差异而产生的跨国异质性。其次,我们建立了一个带有能量的新凯恩斯动态随机一般均衡(NK-DSGE)模型,并表明间接效应约占三年后总体通胀累积反应的75%。

We propose an efficient procedure to solve for policy counterfactuals in sequence space. Forecasts of the variables relevant for the policy problem, and their impulse responses to anticipated policy shocks, constitute sufficient information to construct valid counterfactuals. Knowledge of the structural model equations or filtering of structural shocks is not required. The underlying model has to be linear but occasionally binding constraints are allowed under quasi-perfect foresight. We solve for deterministic and stochastic paths under instrument rules as well as under optimal policy with commitment or subgame-perfect discretion. As an application, we compute counterfactuals of the U.S. economy after the pandemic shock of 2020 under several monetary policy regimes.
我们提出了一种求解序列空间中策略反事实的有效方法。对与政策问题相关的变量的预测,以及它们对预期政策冲击的冲动反应,构成了足够的信息来构建有效的反事实。不需要结构模型方程或结构冲击滤波的知识。底层模型必须是线性的,但在准完美预见的情况下,偶尔会允许绑定约束。我们求解了工具规则下的确定性路径和随机路径,以及具有承诺或子博弈完全自由裁量权的最优策略下的路径。作为应用,我们计算了几种货币政策制度下2020年大流行冲击后美国经济的反事实。

Under finite horizon planning, households and firms evaluate a full set of state-contingent paths along which the economy might evolve out to a finite horizon but have limited ability to process events beyond that horizon. We show–analytically and empirically–that such a model accounts for an initial underreaction and subsequent overreaction of inflation forecasts. A planning horizon of four quarters can account for the evidence on the predictability of inflation forecast errors and macroeconomic data. Our identification and estimation strategies combine full-information methods based on aggregate data with regression-based estimates that directly use inflation expectations data.
在有限视界计划下,家庭和企业评估一整套由国家决定的路径,沿着这些路径,经济可能会发展到有限视界,但处理超出该视界的事件的能力有限。我们通过分析和经验表明,这样的模型解释了最初对通胀预测的反应不足和随后的反应过度。四个季度的规划周期可以解释通胀预测误差和宏观经济数据可预测性的证据。我们的识别和估计策略结合了基于汇总数据的全信息方法和直接使用通胀预期数据的基于回归的估计。

“Write your model almost as you would on paper and Michel will take care of the rest!” Michel Juillard’s contribution to macroeconomics in historical perspective “把你的模型几乎像你在纸上写的那样写出来,米歇尔会处理剩下的事情!”历史视角下米歇尔·茱莉亚对宏观经济学的贡献

In this article, we document Michel Juillard’s contribution to macroeconomics. Best known as the creator of the computer package Dynare, Juillard’s impact extends far beyond software development. We trace his training and career from his first encounter with computers in high school through his ongoing work on Dynare. His contribution to macroeconomics, we argue, is threefold: intellectual (devising algorithms and addressing specific computational problems for a class of models), technical (writing code and developing a computer package), and institutional (establishing and maintaining the governance structures that ensure Dynare’s sustainability as a digital commons). Juillard’s career highlights broader questions about adapting Ostrom’s framework to digital commons development, the principles that govern software development, and the place computational economics should occupy in the history of macroeconomics.
在这篇文章中,我们记录了米歇尔·茱莉亚对宏观经济学的贡献。作为计算机软件包Dynare的创造者,茱莉亚德的影响远远超出了软件开发。我们追溯了他的训练和职业生涯,从他在高中第一次接触计算机到他正在进行的Dynare工作。我们认为,他对宏观经济学的贡献是三重的:智力(为一类模型设计算法并解决特定的计算问题)、技术(编写代码和开发计算机软件包)和制度(建立和维护治理结构,确保Dynare作为数字公共资源的可持续性)。茱莉亚的职业生涯突出了一些更广泛的问题,如将奥斯特罗姆的框架应用于数字公共发展、管理软件开发的原则,以及计算经济学在宏观经济学史上应该占据的位置。
