Do you include potentially reduced incentives to innovate in the "no war" counterfactual? What's your assessment of those?

Peter Temin, economic historian at MIT, has passed away. He worked both on problems of understanding the past (e.g. "Did Monetary Forces Cause the Great Depression?") and how how the past shapes the present (e.g. "The Vanishing Middle Class.") Terrific scholar and mentor, generous critic.

Further unraveling: we'll see, I'm not that optimistic. I would have preferred it if the US had unilaterally withdrawn from the WTO. I agree on incidence.

Yes, that's exactly what I'm worried about (but it will take 5-10y to evaluate). The EU is effectively showing the middle finger to MFN.

If this is accurate, then unless the EU eliminates all tariffs on industrial imports from all its WTO partners, it will be joining Trump in destroying the international trade rules that have applied since WW2. The difference being that while Trump hates the rule-based order the EU claims to value it

White House has now published text of the Turnberry golf resort agreement between EU and US.

It states very clearly that pharma will be tariffed at 15%.

Adds to the existing confusion. The question is when?

Today's trade deal between the US and the EU -- if as reported in the press, and if independent from other agreements -- is a massive mistake on the EU's side. Instead it should have called Trump's bluff. Trump would not have imposed 30% on EU imports for long.

"Contracts as reference points"?

Does that mean that the 'mistake' was merely to use this particular justification, and if they find a somewhat less creative justification, there is little that the courts would do to stop tariffs?

Whenever you need a model/estimator that isn't already available in 'canned' form (i.e. whenever you need to write the optimization problem yourself). If you stick with OLS/IV/PPML/logit/probit your're usually fine w/ R or stata.

1/ NEW RESEARCH: Our study reveals 46% of pesticides embedded in EU agricultural consumption originate from imports, despite imports constituting only 17% of consumption. This includes substances prohibited in the EU. This regulatory gap fuels leakage effects and hurts EU competitiveness 🧵
