His research explores the interplay between financial markets and the macroeconomy, with a focus on credit markets, household and corporate debt, and the amplification of interest rate effects on economic activity. He investigates how institutional features of mortgage and debt markets influenced the 2000s housing boom and bust, as well as the economic response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, he studies the relationship between inequality and asset prices, showing that wealth redistribution between workers and firm owners drives long-term stock price movements and that declining interest rates explain much of the rise in financial wealth inequality since the 1980s.
