Social media advertising and macroeconomic expectations: Evidence from Meta
We examine the relationship between social media advertising and macroeconomic expectations. We find evidence that social media advertising targeting results in heterogeneous exposure to sentiment and economic issues by demographic. In addition, we find evidence that social media advertising affects beliefs about the macroeconomy, particularly inflation expectations, although this result is driven by women between 35 and 44 years of age.
期刊介绍:
Many economists today are concerned by the proliferation of journals and the concomitant labyrinth of research to be conquered in order to reach the specific information they require. To combat this tendency, Economics Letters has been conceived and designed outside the realm of the traditional economics journal. As a Letters Journal, it consists of concise communications (letters) that provide a means of rapid and efficient dissemination of new results, models and methods in all fields of economic research.
