  • 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 ...
  • 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 ...
