Care work is often treated as somehow less "real" than making tangible goods. Nonsense. It's physically demanding, emotionally demanding, and often highly skilled. That's real work, mate.⁣ ⁣ Check out the full analysis here: newsletter.platypuseconomics.com/p/…

10 year ago, Oli Coibion ( @empctmacrotx.bsky.social ) and I had a paper in AEJ Macro about inflation expectations in the U.S. (www.aeaweb.org/articles?id=...). We found that oil/gasoline prices strongly predict inflation expectations. This "iron law" continues to hold. #inflation #EconSky

Interesting note by Krugman. But is it true that fast growing economies typically attract capital inflows and run trade deficits? A 🧵 on a recent literature challenging this notion, and on why China's trade surpluses could be a problem for global productivity growth.
