Altadena's demographics were already shifting with gentrification. The fire likely accelerated that and may lead to the erasure of a Black community. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/14/u...

Meanwhile, @jimtankersley.bsky.social is headed to Berlin. But as everyone knows, I won't miss him at all.

It's the end of an era on the @nytimes.com econ team, with @jeannasmialek.bsky.social headed to Brussels. Couldn't have asked for a better reporting partner for the past nearly six years.

I'm happy for @jeannasmialek.bsky.social and @jimtankersley.bsky.social but the DC economic policy press corps is taking a real hit here. www.nytco.com/press/jeanna...

The American economy is the envy of the world — but not of the American public. Me, from Berlin, on the global and domestic economic backdrop to Trump’s win: www.nytimes.com/2024/11/06/u...

Democrats Got the Recovery They Wanted. It Wasn’t Enough.
America’s economic growth is the envy of its global counterparts. But voters wanted more from the Biden administration — specifically, lower prices.

U.S. employers added 199,000 jobs in November, a figure that partly reflects the return of striking autoworkers. The unemployment rate FELL to 3.7%. #NumbersDay Data: www.bls.gov/news.release... Full coverage: www.nytimes.com/live/2023/12...

Hello from Dubai, where there was one participant (with its own pavilion!) that announced cuts to oil production on the first day of the conference. It wasn’t the USA. www.nytimes.com/2023/12/01/c...

So, an Oil Cartel Walks Into a Climate Summit …
OPEC is a participant at COP28. Unlike the United States, it is moving to cut production.

Simultaneous economic concerns in my colleague's dispatch from Arizona that a) housing price inflation is way too high and b) it is impossible to flip/sell a house right now: www.nytimes.com/2023/11/14/u...

The final A-4 circular revision is: 1) a revolution in regulation 2) the update economists have been clamoring for, for years 3) very close to the draft rule except 4) centered on a 2% discount rate, not 1.7, bc it uses PCE for inflation. Read all abt it! www.nytimes.com/2023/11/09/b...

We’re listening to Thriller this morning and my daughter keeps telling me the chorus to “Beat It” is actually “Peanut!” So Halloween is off to a great start.

Putting down the marker right now that the correct way to report the 2022 / 2023 deficit numbers is assuming the big Biden student-loan forgiveness never happened. Because it didn't happen! (The other way is an accounting mirage that adds to the '22 deficit and reduces '23)

Now seems as good a time as any to pop up here, say hi, and ask how everyone is enjoying another week of Congress fumbling around in the dark for Nash Equilibrium?
