This paper measures the share of publicly traded manufacturing firms that adopted JIT since 1980 and quantifies a trade-off created by JIT between firm profitability and vulnerability to supply disruptions. Empirically, JIT adopters experience higher sales and less volatility on average while also exhibiting heightened sensitivity to aggregate supply chain pressures. I explain these facts in a structurally estimated general equilibrium model of JIT production. Relative to a counterfactual economy without JIT, the baseline model implies higher firm profitability in normal times but a deeper contraction amid a supply disruption. Moreover, a transition to an equilibrium with less JIT and larger inventory buffers leads to a roughly 4% output loss.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48407,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Monetary Economics","volume":"159 ","pages":"Article 103932"},"PeriodicalIF":4.1,"publicationDate":"2026-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147612071","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The effect on PPI inflation is ambiguous, depending positively on the importance of commodities in the production function. Then, we calibrate the model to five regions (the United States, their allies, China, a China-led bloc, and the neutral rest of the world), and we find that fragmentation predominantly affects China, the China-aligned bloc, and the US allies, with these countries experiencing larger declines in production and consumption.
