We estimate the causal impact of grain price shocks on emerging markets using USDA reports and identification through heteroskedasticity. Effects on default risk, stocks, and exchange rates are real but typically less than half of unadjusted estimates.

Rather than traditional aggregate shocks to supply and demand or recently emphasized financial shocks, shocks to the relative demand between home and foreign goods are found to play a pivotal role in current account dynamics.

Our paper shows that fiscal rules can be expansionary in emerging economies. By curbing debt dilution, they reduce underinvestment and enable a transition to a new steady state with lower debt and higher investment, output, and consumption.

When firms offshore, a unilateral emissions tax can backfire. In our GE model, >100% leakage can arise via a global technique effect. The cleanest domestic firms start offshoring; offshored production gets dirtier. BCAs stop leakage โ€“ but risk raising inequality.

Exporters frequently change their destination markets. Using a new framework that links priceโ€“quantity patterns in continuing markets to underlying shocks, this study finds that most market changes are demand-driven (~87%), and about a quarter reflect global or correlated shocks.

Authors study why business-cycle volatility (BCV) is higher in emerging than developed economies. Their model splits BCV into four channels: sectoral composition, firm distribution, intl prices, and aggregate. They find sectoral composition explains up to 77% of excess BCV in EME
