Fearing for their lives, they awaited law enforcement response, and it came quickly. Within minutes, police swarmed the campus. But they found no shooter.

Such false emergency calls are known as “swatting,” or calling in a large law enforcement response to a non-existent crisis. On the same day, the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga was also targeted with reports of an active shooter. Police found…

In his 1992 article “Congress is a ‘They,’ not an ‘It’: Legislative Intent as Oxymoron” (International Review of Law and Economics 12 (2)), Harvard University political scientist Kenneth Shepsle opens: An oxymoron is a two-word contradiction.  The claim of this brief paper is that legislative intent, along with military intelligence, jumbo shrimp, and student athlete, belongs in this category.

Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi traveled to New Delhi this week, marking the first visit of a high-level Chinese official to the Indian capital since the two countries agreed to disengage along their Himalayan border last October. Deadly border clashes in the Galwan Valley in 2020 had previously sent bilateral relations into a deep freeze.

After Modi’s meeting with Wang, the Indian leader highlighted the “steady progress” made since the 2020 military standoff. Wang reiterated a…

However, to me, one interesting coefficient is on the 10 yr Treasury yield, 10yr treas: 0.04 (significant at the 10% msl).
