China’s efforts to regulate its most energy-intensive firms led to reduced energy use at targeted firms, but largely because they shifted production to other firms in their conglomerate network, say researchers at FuDan, Stanford, and Duke University. #econsky. www.aeaweb.org/research/cha...

Economists are in the wilderness. Politicians and the public have rejected their advice on everything from trade to climate change. They held comparatively little sway under Biden, and stand to hold less under Trump. Can they find their way back to influence? #EconSky www.nytimes.com/2025/01/10/b...
