Output Costs, Currency Crises, and Interest Rate Defense of a Peg [PDF]
Central banks typically raise short-term interest rates to defend currency pegs. Higher interest rates, however, often lead to a credit crunch and an output contraction. We model this trade-off in an optimizing, first-generation model in which the crisis

Nevertheless, the prevailing opinion among influential policymakers has been that the nominal interest rates are essentially zero-bound.

Motivated by these empirical facts, we construct a macro-model with a banking sector

We developed and validated a DNA methylation–based biomarker panel to distinguish pleural mesothelioma from other pleural conditions. Using the IMPRESS technology, we translated this panel into a clinically applicable assay. The resulting two classifier models demonstrated excellent performance, achieving high AUC values and strong diagnostic accuracy.

Closed-end Fund Discounts and Interest Rates: Positive Covariance in US Data after 1985 [PDF]
Previous papers find no relationship between interest rates and the discounts of US closed-end funds before 1985. This is taken as evidence against management fees being a cause of discounts because a negative relationship is expected: if interest rates ...
