  • Asymmetries in the responses of regional job flows to oil price shocks 
    Karaki, Mohamad B. (2017-11-01)
    This paper studies the effect of oil price innovations on manufacturing job flows across U.S. states. First, I estimate a nonlinear structural equation model and compute impulse response functions by Monte Carlo integration. ...
  • The effects of oil price shocks on job reallocation 
    Karaki, Mohamad B.; Herrera, Ana Maria (2017-11-01)
    We investigate the effect of oil price innovations on U.S. manufacturing job flows using a simultaneous equation model that nests symmetric and asymmetric responses. We find no evidence of asymmetry in the response of job ...
  • Essays on the effects of oil price shocks and monetary shocks on labor reallocation 
    Karaki, Mohamad B. (Wayne State University, 2017-11-01)
    The debate regarding the asymmetric effects associated with oil and monetary shocks on the economy has revived interest in analyzing the channels of transmission that generate asymmetries in the response of economic activity ...
  • Nonlinearities in the response of real GDP to oil price shocks 
    Karaki, Mohamad B. (2018-03-15)
    This paper re-examines whether real GDP growth responds asymmetrically to real oil price increases and decreases using a sample that includes the recent oil price declines. I follow Kilian and Vigfusson (2011a) and conduct ...
  • Oil prices and state unemployment 
    Karaki, Mohamad B. (2018-03-15)
    This paper studies the effect of oil price shocks on U.S. state-level unemployment rates. First, using a test of symmetry, I evaluate whether the relationship between oil prices and state unemployment rates is symmetric. ...
  • Where do jobs go when oil prices drop? 
    Karaki, Mohamad B.; Herrera, Ana Maria; Rangaraju, Sandeep Kumar (2017-11-01)
    In this paper, we estimate a factor augmented vector autoregressive (FAVAR) model to investigate the effect of oil price shocks on total private job flows as well as on industry-level job creation and destruction. Following ...
