The document analyzes the effects of housing prices and credit supply on young firm activity using panel data at the metropolitan statistical area (MSA) level from 1981-2014. The key findings are:
1) Using an instrumental variables approach, the study finds large effects of local house price changes on local young firm employment growth and shares.
2) A separate, smaller role is found for locally exogenous shifts in bank lending supply on young firm activity.
3) Housing market fluctuations play a major role in driving medium-run fluctuations in young firm employment shares by acting as a transmission channel and driving force in recent decades according to the analysis.
For many economists, the labour market is the most important market of all to study, analyse and evaluate. Like product markets for goods and services, labour markets can also fail. The main types of labour market failure are labour immobility including skills gaps, inequality, disincentives to be economically active, labour market discrimination and the effects of monopsony power of employers.

Several factors are conspiring to create potentially ideal conditions for a mini-renaissance of domestic manufacturing, including the emergence of additive manufacturing, the forces of social, mobile, analytics and cloud, and ever-rising energy costs.

Home prices have continued their upward climb, as evidenced by the latest report from S&P/Case-Shiller. However, the most recent data show a sequential deceleration in aggregate price increases. While there are several variables that influence the price trajectory of housing, the recent spike in borrowing rates—in anticipation of tapering by the US Federal Reserve—appears to be a primary driver. In this paper, we discuss the key variables, in addition to housing price indices, that contribute to create a more complete assessment of the fundamentals for a further price recovery.

A National Profile of
the Real Estate Industry and
the Appraisal Profession
by J. Reid Cummings and Donald R. Epley, PhD, MAI, SRA
FEATURES
T
J- he
he real estate industry has been devastated on many fronts' in the years
following the Great Recession, whieh began in 2007^ due to the bursting of the
housing bubble and the subsequent finaneial crisis relating to the mortgage
market meltdown.' The implosion of the mortgage markets initially began when
two Bear Stearns mortgage-backed securities hedge funds, holding nearly $10
billion in assets, disintegrated into nothing.* Panie quickly spread to financial
institutions that could not hide the extent of their toxic, subprime exposures, and
a massive, worldwide credit squeeze ensued; outright fear soon replaced panic.
Subsequent eredit tightening and substantial illiquidity in the financial markets
rapidly and severely affected the housing and construction markets.' Throughout
the United States, properties of all kinds saw dramatic value declines.
In thousands of cases, real estate foreclosures disrupted people's lives,
forced businesses to close, eaused financial institutions to falter, capsized wbole
market segments, devastated entire industries, and squeezed municipal and state
government budgets dependent upon use and property tax revenues.* While the
effeets of property value declines and the waves of foreclosures in markets across
the country captured most of the headlines, one significant impact of the upheaval
in US real estate markets has gone largely unreported: its impact on employment
in the real estate industry, and specifically, the real estate appraisal profession.
This article presents a
current employment
profile of the US real
estate industry, with
special attention given
to appraisal profes-
sionals. It serves as an
informative picture of
the appraisal profession
for use as a benchmark
for future assessment
of growth. As a
component of the real
estate industry, the
appraisal profession
ranks as the smallest
in employment, is
highly correlated to
movements in empioy-
ment of brokers and
agents, and relies on
commerciai banking,
credit, and real estate
lessors and managers
to deliver its products.

ABSTRACT
On the Robustness of Minimum Wage Effects:
Geographically-Disparate Trends and Job Growth Equations
Just as the standard two-way fixed effects model for estimating the impact of minimum
wages on employment has been sharply criticized for its neglect of spatial heterogeneity so,
too, have the latest models been attacked for their uncritical use of state- or county-specific
linear trends (and other spatial counterfactuals). Further attenuation of the effects of policy is
also alleged to obtain in such circumstances where the true effect.
This is a study attempting to statistically measure the impact of Government policies on the economy and the stock market. The “causal” Government policies considered will include:
Fiscal Policy, entailing Budget Deficit spending;
Monetary Policy with the Federal Reserve managing the Federal Funds rate; and
Monetary Policy with the Federal Reserve conducting large purchases of securities (Treasuries, MBS);
The dependent or impacted macroeconomic variables affected by the above Government policies will include:
The overall economy (RGDP);
Inflation (CPI);
Unemployment Rate; and
Stock market.
Foreclosure Effects on Neighborhood Property Assessments: National League of ...RWVentures
RW Ventures' recent analysis of the impact of foreclosures on neighborhood property values has begun to garner attention from civic sector stakeholders. Bob Weissbourd and Michael He have presented the findings of the firm's work for the Cook County Assessor's office in addresses to both the National League of Cities' Community and Economic Development Committee and the City of Milwaukee's Community Economic Development Committee.
This slide deck describes how CBO used a Markov-switching model to assess the uncertainty of the economic forecast presented in CBO’s Current View of the Economy in 2023 and 2024 and the Budgetary Implications (November 2022).
Ready for the next recession? Assessing the UK’s macroeconomic frameworkResolutionFoundation
The UK economy is facing its highest risk of recession since 2007, as Brexit uncertainty and global instability loom large. When the next downturn will arrive is impossible to say, but now is a good time to ensure that we are ready to respond. Crucially the world has moved on since we last prepared our framework – the tools we used to fight the last recession won’t necessarily work for the next one.
How severe are the constraints of near zero interest rates on monetary policy? What is the potential for Quantitative Easing to replay its major financial crisis role? And while there is a generally accepted case for a wider role for fiscal policy, are we ready to deploy it as effectively as possible?
The Resolution Foundation is setting up a new Macroeconomic Policy Unit to get to the bottom of these big economic questions and more. To mark its launch, the Foundation hosted an event that brought together leading macroeconomists and policy makers. The launch included the publishing of a comprehensive assessment of the UK’s current macroeconomic policy framework. Speakers included MPC Member Gertjan Vlieghe and Head of Bloomberg Economics Stephanie Flanders.

how to sell pi coins in South Korea profitably.DOT TECH
Yes. You can sell your pi network coins in South Korea or any other country, by finding a verified pi merchant
What is a verified pi merchant?
Since pi network is not launched yet on any exchange, the only way you can sell pi coins is by selling to a verified pi merchant, and this is because pi network is not launched yet on any exchange and no pre-sale or ico offerings Is done on pi.
Since there is no pre-sale, the only way exchanges can get pi is by buying from miners. So a pi merchant facilitates these transactions by acting as a bridge for both transactions.
How can i find a pi vendor/merchant?
Well for those who haven't traded with a pi merchant or who don't already have one. I will leave the telegram id of my personal pi merchant who i trade pi with.

what is the future of Pi Network currency.DOT TECH
The future of the Pi cryptocurrency is uncertain, and its success will depend on several factors. Pi is a relatively new cryptocurrency that aims to be user-friendly and accessible to a wide audience. Here are a few key considerations for its future:
Message: @Pi_vendor_247 on telegram if u want to sell PI COINS.
1. Mainnet Launch: As of my last knowledge update in January 2022, Pi was still in the testnet phase. Its success will depend on a successful transition to a mainnet, where actual transactions can take place.
2. User Adoption: Pi's success will be closely tied to user adoption. The more users who join the network and actively participate, the stronger the ecosystem can become.
3. Utility and Use Cases: For a cryptocurrency to thrive, it must offer utility and practical use cases. The Pi team has talked about various applications, including peer-to-peer transactions, smart contracts, and more. The development and implementation of these features will be essential.
4. Regulatory Environment: The regulatory environment for cryptocurrencies is evolving globally. How Pi navigates and complies with regulations in various jurisdictions will significantly impact its future.
5. Technology Development: The Pi network must continue to develop and improve its technology, security, and scalability to compete with established cryptocurrencies.
6. Community Engagement: The Pi community plays a critical role in its future. Engaged users can help build trust and grow the network.
7. Monetization and Sustainability: The Pi team's monetization strategy, such as fees, partnerships, or other revenue sources, will affect its long-term sustainability.
It's essential to approach Pi or any new cryptocurrency with caution and conduct due diligence. Cryptocurrency investments involve risks, and potential rewards can be uncertain. The success and future of Pi will depend on the collective efforts of its team, community, and the broader cryptocurrency market dynamics. It's advisable to stay updated on Pi's development and follow any updates from the official Pi Network website or announcements from the team.
The European Unemployment Puzzle: implications from population agingGRAPE
We study the link between the evolving age structure of the working population and unemployment. We build a large new Keynesian OLG model with a realistic age structure, labor market frictions, sticky prices, and aggregate shocks. Once calibrated to the European economy, we quantify the extent to which demographic changes over the last three decades have contributed to the decline of the unemployment rate. Our findings yield important implications for the future evolution of unemployment given the anticipated further aging of the working population in Europe. We also quantify the implications for optimal monetary policy: lowering inflation volatility becomes less costly in terms of GDP and unemployment volatility, which hints that optimal monetary policy may be more hawkish in an aging society. Finally, our results also propose a partial reversal of the European-US unemployment puzzle due to the fact that the share of young workers is expected to remain robust in the US.

Dynamism Diminished: The Role of Housing Markets and Credit Conditions
1. Dynamism Diminished: The Role of
Housing Markets and Credit Conditions
Steven J. Davis
Research with John Haltiwanger
OECD Global Productivity Forum
Sydney, 20-21 June 2019
2. The Great Recession and its aftermath saw the worst relative performance of young
firms in at least 35 years. More broadly, as we show, young-firm activity shares move
strongly with local economic conditions and local house price growth. In this light, we
assess the effects of housing prices and credit supply on young-firm activity. Our panel
IV estimation on MSA-level data yields large effects of local house price changes on local
young-firm employment growth and employment shares and a separate, smaller role for
locally exogenous shifts in bank lending supply. A novel test shows that house-price
effects work through wealth, liquidity and collateral effects on the propensity to start
new firms and expand young ones. Aggregating local effects to the national level,
housing market ups and downs play a major role – as transmission channel and driving
force – in medium-run fluctuations in young-firm employment shares in recent decades.
The great housing bust after 2006 largely drove the cyclical collapse of young-firm
activity during the Great Recession, reinforced by a contraction in bank loan supply. As
we also show, when the young-firm activity share falls (rises), local employment shifts
strongly away from (towards) younger and less-educated workers.

“Firm age” is set to age of its oldest establishment when the firm first becomes a legal entity,
and increments by 1 each year thereafter. Establishment age is the number of years since
operations began at the location in the same narrowly defined industry.

8. Our Main Data Sources
• Business Dynamic Statistics (BDS): Annual activity for firms with paid employees,
with tabulations by firm age at State and MSA level.
• Quarterly Workforce Indicators (QWI): Similar to BDS in key respects, but includes
tabs by age-industry-MSA (including by gender-worker age-education). Covers
shorter time period than BDS.
• Local area unemployment rates (LAUS): This BLS program uses CPS data, UI claims,
CES data and other sources to estimate local unemployment rates.
• Local house price measures (FHFA): Federal Home Loan Finance Agency data,
available monthly at MSA and State Level.
• Saiz MSA housing supply elasticity: To instrument for house price changes
• Local bank loan supply (CRA): Community Reinvestment Act data. Banks with assets
>1 billion report # and volume of loans to businesses with <$1 million in gross
revenue. We use to construct local “small business” loan supply shocks.
• Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages (QCEW): Employment at MSA-industry
level. To construct Bartik-like instruments for local cycle variables. 8
10. Identification
• Instrument local house price changes to identify effects on local young-firm
activity shares. Two IV approaches that rely on distinct variation:
1. IV(1) Exploit national housing boom & bust episodes that affect MSA-level house
prices differently due to differences in local housing supply elasticities
• Follows Mian and Sufi, except we stack boom and bust changes and consider different
outcomes. Use Saiz housing supply elasticity instruments.
• Stacking permits controlling for MSA specific trends.
2. IV(2) Exploit local area demand shifts interacted with local housing supply elasticities
to instrument for local house price changes.
3. We also include additional local controls – omitted variable bias may yield violation
of exclusion restriction even using Saiz instruments.
• Supplement with local “small” business loan shocks by adapting approach of
Greenstone, Mas and Ngyugen (2015).
• Fits well with IV approach 2 above.
• A shorter times-series dimension, because CRA data are only available from late 1990s.10

Exclusion restriction: 𝐶𝑜𝑣 𝑍 𝑚 𝐼𝑠, 𝜀 𝑚𝑠 = 0. That is, 𝑍 𝑚 𝐼𝑠 influences young-firm share only
through house price growth, conditional on period and MSA effects in the first equation.
466 observations: 233 Boom changes (2002-2006) + 233 Bust changes (2007-2010).
Stacking boom and bust episodes lets us control for arbitrary differences in MSA-level trends
in the 2000s, addressing concerns that these trends are correlated with MSA-level housing
supply elasticities, as argued by Davidoff (2015). 11

15. IV Approach (1): On Identification
1. Measurement Error: IV addresses concerns that OLS yields a
(downwardly) biased estimate of 𝛽 due to measurement error in
HP – a serious concern, in our view, given the difficulties of
constructing good house price indices.
2. Reverse causality: Not a serious concern in our view, given that
our lhs variable is log change in the young-firm employment
share. In other words, we do not think exogenous shocks to the
local young-firm share drive changes in local house price growth.
The small size of the young-firm share also limits concerns about
reverse causality.
3. Omitted Variables: Our specifications might not adequately
control for local cycle conditions that affect local house price
growth and 𝑌 𝑚𝑠 -- a serious concern in our view. 15
16. IV Approach (1): On Identification
Omitted variables can cause the 𝐶𝑜𝑣 𝑍 𝑚 𝐼𝑠, 𝜀 𝑚𝑠 = 0 assumption to fail. To
see how, suppose the true specification is given by:
𝑌 𝑚𝑠 = σ 𝑠 𝜆 𝑠 𝐼𝑠 + σ 𝑚 𝜆 𝑚 𝐼 𝑚 + 𝛽𝐻𝑃𝑚𝑠 + 𝛼𝑋 𝑚𝑠 +𝜀 𝑚𝑠 (1)’
𝐻𝑃𝑚𝑠 = σ 𝑚 𝛿 𝑚 𝐼 𝑚 + σ 𝑠 𝛿𝑠 𝐼𝑠 + σ 𝑠 𝑍 𝑚 𝐼𝑠 𝛾𝑠 + 𝜃𝑋 𝑚𝑠 + 𝜂 𝑚𝑠 (2)’
Where 𝑋 𝑚𝑠 is a local shock that affects the young-firm activity share in (1)’.
Such local shocks may also affect local house prices in (2)’. Suppose further
that 𝐶𝑜𝑣 𝑍 𝑚 𝐼𝑠, 𝑋 𝑚𝑠 ≠ 0, i.e., that the local shock 𝑋 𝑚𝑠 is also correlated with
our instrument. In this case, estimating (1) rather than (1)’ will violate the
assumption that 𝐶𝑜𝑣 𝑍 𝑚 𝐼𝑠, 𝜀 𝑚𝑠 = 0. This limitation can be overcome by
estimating (1)’ rather than (1) along with (2)’ rather than (2).
16
17. IV Approach (1): On Identification
The next slide considers the sensitivity of the key coefficient of interest to the
inclusion of several local shock control variables:
• Local cycle control: The average annualized change in the MSA-level
unemployment rate during the period.
• Bartik-type local demand shifter: The average annualized employment
growth rate implied by (lagged MSA-level industry employment share) X
(national industry employment growth) summed over all industries at the 2-
digit NAICS level. Results are similar using 4-digit NAICS data, but there is
much suppression of cell-level data at 4-digit NAICS by MSA level.
• Local population growth: The average annualized change in the MSA-level
population during the period.

24. Exploring the Channels Through
Which House Price Changes Affect Young-
Firm Activity Shares
24
25. (Local) Housing Prices and (Local)Young-Firm
Activity: Potential Transmission Channels
1. Wealth and Risk Tolerance: Home equity up greater willingness to take on
risks of new/young business. (Khilstrom-Laffont, 1979, Guiso-Paiella, 2008)
2. Wealth Effect on Desire to Be Own Boss: Demand for being own boss is a
normal good and increases in wealth. (Hurst and Pugsley, 2015)
3. Liquidity and Collateral Effects: Households tap home equity to relax liquidity
constraints, increasing their ability to finance new/young businesses. Higher
house prices greater collateral value. (Evans and Jovanovic, 1989)
4. Local Credit Supply: Local housing conditions affect local banks’ lending
capacity + young firms are relatively dependent on local bank credit.
5. Local Outlook and Credit Supply: Banks see local housing prices as indicators
of (future) local business conditions, affecting their willingness to lend; and
new and young firms are relatively dependent on bank credit.
6. Non-uniform Consumption Expenditure Responses: Young firms supply goods
and services whose demand is relatively sensitive to local income/wealth.25
26. Exploring Channels
Novel test to distinguish between contribution of consumption demand
channels and other channels (all of which operate on financial conditions for
the young firms and their owners)
Idea: Test whether the local industry growth rate response to local house price
changes depends on the local industry’s firm-age structure of employment. If
house prices work entirely through consumption demand channels, then we
expect the local industry response to be invariant to its firm-age structure.
The alternative view says the local industry response rises with its young-firm
activity share due to wealth, collateral, and liquidity effects of house prices on
the relative propensity to start a new business or expand a young business.
Implement using annual QWI employment data at 2-digit NAICS by MSA level
for 1999-2015.

30. Quantifying Departures from Age Invariance
• Are the departures from age invariance large in magnitude?
• To address this question, compute the regression-implied response differential
between an MSA-Industry at the 90 percentile for the young-firm employment
share and one at the 10 percentile. Evaluate at the local house price log change.
𝑅𝑒𝑠𝑝_𝐷𝑖𝑓𝑓 = Ƹ𝑐 𝑌𝑜𝑢𝑛𝑔_𝑠ℎ 𝑡
90−10
𝐻𝑃𝑡(𝑝), where
• Ƹ𝑐 = coefficient on interaction term in the regression. In practice, we use
Ƹ𝑐 = 0.672, the estimate from the rightmost column
• 𝑌𝑜𝑢𝑛𝑔_𝑠ℎ 𝑡
90−10
= the 90-10 differential in the young-firm employment across
local industries at time t
• 𝐻𝑃𝑡 𝑝 = pth percentile of log change from t-1 to t in MSA-level housing prices
• The lower panel on the next slide implements this calculation. We report the
annual average response differential during boom and bust periods and the
corresponding cumulative response differentials.

Invariance are modest for most SMSAs most of the time.
32. Additional Results from a Dynamic Specification
Extending the specification to include the lagged main effect for
local housing price changes and its interaction with the lagged
young-firm employment share in the local industry:
1. The local industry response to higher local house prices rises
even more steeply with the local industry’s young-firm share.
2. The effect of a local housing price increase on local industry
employment growth rises in period t with the local industry’s
young-firm share, and it rises even further in period t+1.
3. In terms of local industry employment levels, these results imply
powerful hysteresis effects of local housing price changes that
vary with the firm-age structure of employment in the local
industry. 32
33. How Important Are House Price
Movements and Bank Loan Supply
Shifts for National Changes in
Young-Firm Activity Shares?
33
34. Our Quantification Method
We use IV coefficient estimates and actual state-level house price
changes from 1981 to 2014 to quantify national effects of housing market
developments. By using all house price changes, we capture the effects of
exogenous house price changes and the role of house prices in transmitting
shocks that originate elsewhere. We aggregate state-level changes to the
national level using state-level employment shares.
Given correctly identified causal effects of local house price changes, our
quantification exercise may overstate or understate the role of housing
market developments in national young-firm activity shares:
• Overstate? Spatial equilibration of young-firm activity across local areas may
attenuate national responses relative to the aggregated local responses.
• Understate? (1) Positive spillovers of young-firm activity across local areas.
(2) Entrepreneurs may own houses outside the area where they operate
young firms, an effect not captured by our regression model or aggregation.

42. Summary of Main Results
1. Over the past 35 years, there has been a large secular decline
in the U.S. young-firm employment share. That decline
accelerates during recessions and attenuates during booms.
2. Local house price changes have large causal effects on the local
employment shares of young firms.
3. These causal effects work partly through wealth, liquidity,
collateral, and credit supply effects on the propensity to start a
new business or expand a young one.
4. House price changes are a major driver of medium-run
fluctuations in national young-firm employment shares. They
account for more than half of the trend-deviated drop in
young-firm activity shares during the Great Recession. 42
43. Summary of Main Results
5. Locally exogenous shifts in bank loan supply are also a driver
of local and national changes in the young-firm employment
share in certain episodes, e.g., the Great Recession.
6. When the young-firm share of local employment rises,
employment shifts from older to younger workers and from
more- to less-educated ones.
7. Together with our other results, Result 6 says that housing
busts and credit crunches hurt younger and less-educated
workers through their particular effects on the fortunes of
younger firms in addition to their broader effects on the
economy.
