Happy to see our work on estimating the impact of country-specific characteristics on trade published at the Journal of Applied Econometrics (open access!) Grateful to my amazing co-authors, the editor, the referees, & many colleagues. Gravity rules 💪

Brexit broke UK trade. New reasearch
Brexit postmortem: How trading relationshipship died
👉Brexit "led to an immediate, sharp drop in both exports and imports with the EU for the average firm. many exporters and importers stopped trading with the EU entirely."
👉Our estimates imply that, in the short run, leaving the EU reduced worldwide UK exports by 6.4% and worldwide imports by 3.1%.

NEW DATA! Very happy that ITPD-S is now public (& free)! For the first time, we have consistent datasets (ITPD-E & ITPD-S) that can be used for estimation and simulation of trade policy effects. Ingo, Mario, Serge, and I hope it is useful. Gravity rules💪

After years in the making, I am happy to share a new guide for gravity estimations. Our recommendations are motivated by trade, but most of them apply broadly, e.g., to migration, FDI, etc. Mario, @SergeShikher, and I hope this is useful. Gravity rules 💪

New! Brexit has reduced goods exports by £27bn – with smaller firms most affected.
