- Very happy for this to be coming out, especially since it's older than all five of David and my respective kids! Thanks so much to our amazing editor Liran Einav and referees for making the paper much stronger.Trade reduces price response to yields, raising volatility → Indian farmers grow less risky crops. To quantify, @treballen & @davidgatkin combine portfolio choice + heterogeneous traders → Ricardian model with smooth relationship between prices and yield econometricsociety.org/publications/e…

- Trade and spatial economists may remember an earlier draft called "On the existence and uniqueness of trade equilibrium." We (finally) figured out how to go beyond constant elasticity ("gravity") systems!Need to prove the uniqueness of a model with lots of agents and outcomes? Here are new and easy-to-verify conditions. Underneath the hood: a multidimensional extension of Banach’s fixed point theorem, from @treballen, Costas Arkolakis, and Xiangliang Li nber.org/papers/w27837
