Today marks the fiftieth anniversary of the military coup in Chile on 11 September 1973. The bloody overthrow of Chile’s democratically-elected Popular Unity government and the death of socialist President Salvador Allende coronated a far-right military dictatorship under General Augusto Pinochet, which would last for seventeen years. Tens of thousands of socialists, trade unionists, and […]
Evidence continues to mount that the official narrative itself is the irrational narrative of September 11, and it becomes ever more clear that the media remains committed to preventing legitimate questions about that day from receiving the scrutiny they deserve.

September 11th, 2023: My new book DANGER AND OTHER UNKNOWN RISKS We introduce new firm-level indices covering input costs, demand and final prices based
on listed Australian firms' earnings calls going back to 2007. These indices are
constructed using a powerful transformer-based large language model. We show the new
indices track current economic conditions, consistent with a simple conceptual framework
we use to explain why there is real-time information in firms' earnings calls. Focusing
on firms' price-setting behaviour, the reduced-form associations we estimate appear to
show that discussions around final prices have become more sensitive to import costs but
less sensitive to labour costs in the period since 2021. This is after controlling for
changes in the operating environment that are common to all firms, including global
supply shocks. Firms' price-setting sentiment also appears more sensitive to rising
input costs compared to falling costs, suggesting that prices could remain front-of-mind
for company executives even as supply pressures ease.

But Democrats also say that based on 2023 so far, they see plenty of reason for optimism about their chances with voters. An analysis from FiveThirtyEight found that in 38 special elections held so far this year, Democrats have outperformed the partisan lean — or the relative liberal or conservative history — of the areas where the races were held by an average of 10%, both romping in parts of the country that typically support the party while cutting down on GOP margins in red cities and counties, too.
