The case for (high) minimum wages and collective agreements. Great op-ed introducing Arin Dube‘s fantastic new book „The Wage Standard“.
The range of conflicts of interests (journal editorships, self-owned consulting LLC, children working at the ASSA meeting) disclosed in the latest AEA executive committee meeting is super interesting.

I talked to NBC about FIFA clandestinely dumping World Cup tickets for low-demand games onto resale platforms.
This World Cup will be the ultimate K-shaped tournament for ticket prices.
Some low-demand games will be almost free, but most games will be very expensive.

Great arguments explaining why the court got the wrong answer in the antitrust case against Meta.
Today we hosted @florianederer.bsky.social (Boston University) for a #seminar on "Disclosure and the Pace of Drug Development", joint with Cunningham, Hodgson & Wang. More transparency, faster innovation? Think again: policy design can have surprising results! #econtwitter #Pharmaceuticals

Zumindest für einige Spielen der WM gibt es wenig Nachfrage und immer noch viele Tickets. Die FIFA könnte sich bei diesen Spielen verzockt haben, glaubt ein Ökonom. Erste Freikartenaktionen sind zu beobachten - und einige Verkaufstricks.

Steve Salop, Allan Collard-Wexler, Marty Gaynor, Nancy Rose, Larry White, and I joined an amicus brief supporting reversal in FTC v. Meta.
The district court's market-definition analysis departs from basic economics and risks weakening Section 2 enforcement in digital markets.

Die Preise der Tickets und deren Verkauf sind das Reizthema für Fans bei dieser WM. Kurz vor Turnierbeginn könnte sich die FIFA bei einigen Spielen mit den Preisen verzockt haben.
