We use data from an online platform that centralizes a daycare (0-3-year-olds) matching process. We estimate the preferences of parents and the priorities of nurseries using data from parents’ rank-ordered lists and the acceptance decisions of nurseries.

We study the effects of forward-looking communication in an environment of rising inflation rates on German consumers’ inflation expectations using a randomized control trial. We show that information about rising inflation increases short- and long-term inflation expectations. This initial...

We consider a continuous-time game between a buyer and a seller. The buyer privately knows how often he needs to trade. When he does, he can choose to either engage with the seller, who chooses what utility to supply, or search for an alternative. Because time is informative, the seller learns and...

While pro-social attitudes have been shown to affect investment decisions, much less is known on what shapes pro-social attitudes across investors and over time. We investigate how life-time experiences affect investors’ demand for ESG stocks. We exploit account-level data from the Shanghai Stock...

Do negative housing shocks lead to persistent changes in household attitudes toward housing and homeownership? We use the residential destruction of Germany during World War II (WWII) as a quasi-experiment and exploit the reasonably exogenous region-by-cohort variation in destruction exposure. We...

Wildlife trade is a multibillion-dollar industry. It can be legal or illegal and is in part fueled by the demand for exotic pets. Japan has a long history of importing wildlife products and is an important consumer of exotic pets. Our previous study recorded 137 active Exotic Animal Cafés (EACs;...

We causally test alternative theories of expectation formation and asset pricing. Using a randomized information experiment we show overreaction is a key feature of individuals’ belief formation. Individuals excessively extrapolate past returns and earnings growth into future returns. The average...

The US FDA created the accelerated drug approval program in 1992 to give HIV-AIDS patients earlier access to potentially life-saving, though unproven, drugs. Regulators in Europe, Japan, and elsewhere created similar conditional approval programs. They can approve a drug on weak evidence and ask...

Otto and Villani's HWI inequality is an inequality linking entropy, Fisher information and Wasserstein distances on the space of probability measures. It was introduced as a consequence of the convexity of entropy on the space of probability measures, and has been studied from different points of...
