However, this growth only in part offset the deep recession that had been observed in Q2. In the majority of countries, output is well below its pre-crisis levels. The “second wave” of the epidemic has increased uncertainty about the prospects for further economic recovery. According to the latest estimates, the drop in global GDP expected for this year has been downwardly revised, from 5.0% to 4.5%, with an increase of 5% in 2021. The new containment measures introduced this autumn are fraught with the risks of a second significant decline in business activity and a surge in unemployment, and as a result, the forecasts for 2021 may get worse.","PeriodicalId":291048,"journal":{"name":"ERN: Business Fluctuations; Cycles (Topic)","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114570202","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While most previous past empirical work is limited to post-war data in the US, this paper tests the plucking model using Maddison Project growth data for 169 countries across several centuries. We find that the plucking property is broadly evident across time and countries. Plucking is particularly strong in advanced economies in East Asia (Japan), Europe (Western Europe) and North America (US and Canada) while to a lesser extent elsewhere in emerging economies. The overall strength of the plucking property globally also appears to have increased during the 20th century with the rise of widespread industrialized economies.","PeriodicalId":291048,"journal":{"name":"ERN: Business Fluctuations; Cycles (Topic)","volume":"67 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126312695","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using firm-level data for the Spanish manufacturing sector, this paper finds that innovative firms suffered considerably less compared to non-innovative firms during the Great Recession. This effect is explained by innovative firms differentiating their products to adapt to an unexpected rapid decline in economic activity. The data does not support alternative mechanisms such as reduction in marginal cost of production with process innovation, better access to capital, difference in labour moving costs, or higher technological diversification for innovative firms. The results provide evidence of the role of R&D in making firms dynamically capable and resilient to large negative shocks, adding another element to its well established role of facilitating growth through innovation and learning.","PeriodicalId":291048,"journal":{"name":"ERN: Business Fluctuations; Cycles (Topic)","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130799492","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper investigates how well linear vector-autoregressions (VARs) identify endogenous cycle mechanisms and cycle frequencies when the underlying process is a nonlinear limit cycle. We conduct Monte Carlo simulations on five different nonlinear models in which cycles are driven by the interaction of two state variables. We find that while linear VARs quantitatively underestimate the strength of the interaction mechanism, they successfully identify the qualitative presence of a cycle mechanism in the majority of cases. Cycle detection rates range between 55% and almost 100%. The detection rate is higher (i) when the nonlinearity does not directly affect the interaction mechanism and (ii) the larger the strength of the interaction mechanism. Our results further suggest that linear VARs are relatively robust to false positives and are surprisingly successfully at estimating cycle frequencies of nonlinear processes. Overall, our findings suggest that linear VARs can be a useful tool to explore cyclical interactions even when the underlying process is nonlinear.","PeriodicalId":291048,"journal":{"name":"ERN: Business Fluctuations; Cycles (Topic)","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124554843","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This is at odds with virtually all models that attempt to explain the \"macro-announcement premium.\" We point out that the macro-announcement sample is too small, considering the high volatility and fat tail of daily returns. Our small-sample argument jointly explains the return and VIX patterns of macro-announcement days. The estimation based on a statistical model shows that high macro-announcement returns are not a manifestation of high conditional equity premiums, but return innovations that are not averaged out in-sample. Non-announcement days with similar drops in the VIX obtain similar excess returns through asymmetric volatility. Our analysis suggests that the large average macro-announcement return might not be a compensation for perceived uncertainty.","PeriodicalId":291048,"journal":{"name":"ERN: Business Fluctuations; Cycles (Topic)","volume":"200 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124496680","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We show that state-of-the-art models with a Bernanke-Gertler-Gilchrist financial accelerator mechanism imply that recovery rates are flat over the cycle. We propose a model where financially constrained entrepreneurs face an idiosyncratic cost of redeploying liquidated capital. The resulting endogenous liquidation costs magnify the effect of the financial accelerator. We fit the model to US data and find that it explains a substantial amount of variation in recovery rates. Our mechanism alters the transmission of structural disturbances and leads to novel policy implications about the effectiveness of subsidies for liquidated assets.","PeriodicalId":291048,"journal":{"name":"ERN: Business Fluctuations; Cycles (Topic)","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130460955","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
