The imagined scenario: a crisis in 2021 as North Korea fires a test missile far into the Pacific Ocean, with experts convinced this advance in the country’s capabilities was funded by a new Chinese digital currency. The assembled group, which included former Cabinet members and presidential advisers such as Lawrence Summers, Meghan O’Sullivan, and Ash Carter, dove deeply into the substance of the matter.

  • Random Assignment of MBA Peers And
    Friends with (Wage) Benefits: Random Assignment of MBA Peers and Reallocation to the Financial Industry Isaac Hacamo and Kristoph Kleiner∗ Indiana University, Kelley School of Business April 29th, 2016 Abstract We study one channel that links peer effects to lifetime earnings: workers can more easily trans- fer industries with peer support, resulting in long-term wage benefits even after the interaction de- clines. By incorporating a random assignment of MBA students into small-sized teams matched with employee-employer linked data, we first document that individuals in the same team are more likely to work in the same industry after graduation; yet the results are exclusively driven by the financial sector. We estimate that having a peer in the financial industry increases the chance a low-wage- industry worker can transfer to the financial industry by 5%. The results are strongest when (i) a worker intends to enter the industry after MBA graduation and (ii) during high industry growth. Interestingly, peer effects are inexistent during recession times. At a lower-bound, having a peer in the financial industry increases five-year compensation by $8,192 for all students and $40,964 for intended finance majors. Overall, professional networking plays a valuable role in the allocation of MBA graduates to the financial sector, and more broadly explains how past peer networks affect lifetime earnings. ∗Department of Finance, Indiana University, 1309 East 10th Street, Bloomington, IN 47405.

  • Important Developments on Global Warming in 2006 E
    Important Developments on Global Warming in 2006 E. Calvin Beisner Despite continued alarmist claims in the mainstream media, by advocacy groups, and by some scientists, actual scientific and economic developments related to the global warming debate during 2006 point toward the collapse of the catastrophic human-induced global warming (CHIGW) dogma. Here’s a brief summary: • IPCC Reduces Warming Projections. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s (IPCC) draft 2007 Fourth Assessment Report (FAR) reduces projected temperature impact of human-induced climate change by 25 percent versus the previous (Third Assessment Report, 2001 [TAR]) assessment.1 Other research puts the most likely effect of E doubled CO2 on global average temperature at 3 C or less and says no evidence supports estimates of 4.5E or more.2 • IPCC Reduces Estimate of Human Contribution. The FAR’s Table of Forcings reduces human contribution to energy absorption in the atmosphere by 35 percent from the TAR’s. The FAR also reduces the IPCC’s estimate of the overall effect of human action on global temperature since the Industrial Revolution in light of increasing understanding of the cooling effect of aerosols and oceanic heat absorption.3 The estimated roles of variations in solar energy and solar wind output in climate change have risen greatly, with recent studies attributing nearly all or even all observed climate change to them, leaving little warming role left for human action.4 • IPCC Reduces Projected Sea Level Rise. The FAR reduces high-end projected twenty- first century sea level rise by 50 percent, from 34 to 17 inches.5 The more credible International Union for Quaternary Research’s Sea Level Commission projects twenty- first century sea level rise of only 0 to 7.88 inches (0 to 0.79 inch per decade).6 Studies indicate no statistical correlation between sea level changes and atmospheric CO2 concentration.7 • IPCC Abandons Discredited Hockey Stick Graph.
