Sexy gilts news today! 🫦 Strongest demand seen for a gilt auction since DMO records began in 1998. Britain sold £900 million of an index-linked gilt due in 2035 and received orders worth £4.333 billion - the highest such ratio (4.81) seen in at least 27 years.

Dies wäre der richtige Zeitpunkt, das EU-weit zu tun, beispielsweise als Steuer auf die Werbeeinnahmen von Plattformunternehmen. Das würde den Börsenwert der Tech-Unternehmen und damit den S&P 500 Index spürbar reduzieren.

Deutschland ist durch die US-Zölle auf Autos stärker betroffen als andere EU-Länder. Das darf aber nicht dazu führen, klein beizugeben. Im Gegenteil, nur eine geeinte und starke Reaktion der EU kann Schlimmeres verhindern.

Eine besonders effektive Maßnahme wäre, die Dienstleistungen der Big-Tech Unternehmen zu besteuern. Dass die EU mehr Dienstleistungen aus den USA beziehen als umgekehrt, davon ist in Trumps Reden bisher nichts zu hören. Einzelne EU-Länder erheben jetzt schon eine Digital Service Tax.

There are several things to unpack here. 1. It just says "extraterritorial" levies -- i.e. ANY tax levied by a foreign country. The statement isn't nuanced enough to focus on just the possible top-up tax, rather, it seems to open a war on ANY taxation of inbound multinationals.

The 1906 San Francisco Fire was one of the largest urban fires in American history. @hannaschwank.bsky.social's excellent paper on its long-run consequences has sadly become very timely. Luckily we have learned some lessons (e.g. insurance more common), still an invaluable piece of research.
Abstract. Natural disasters are growing in frequency globally. Understanding how vulnerable populations respond to these disasters is essential for effective policy response. This paper explores the short- and long-run consequences of the 1906 San Francisco Fire, one of the largest urban fires in American history. Using linked Census records, I follow residents of San Francisco and their children from 1900 to 1940. Historical records suggest that exogenous factors such as wind and the availability of water determined where the fire stopped. I implement a spatial regression discontinuity design across the boundary of the razed area to identify the effect of the fire on those who lost their home to it. I find that in the short run, the fire displaced affected residents, forced them into lower paying occupations and out of entrepreneurship. Experiencing the disaster disrupted children’s school attendance and led to an average loss of six months of education. While most effects attenuated over time, the negative effect on business ownership persists even in 1940, 34 years after the fire. Therefore, my findings reject the hope for a “reversal of fortune” for the victims, in contrast to what is found for more recent natural disasters such as hurricane Katrina.
