CeNSE Seminar

Welcome to a seminar entitled "Local labor market effects of Amazon" held by Evan Cunningham, University of Minnesota.

Place: B5002

Abstract: Does the entry of a large employer to a local labor market increase welfare for residents? To answer this question, I analyze the local effects of the dramatic expansion of Amazon’s fulfillment center (FC) network from 2010 onward. I exploit the staggered roll-out of FCs across large U.S. metros in a difference-in-difference framework. I find Amazon’s entry in a metro increases the total employment rate by 1.0 percentage point and average wages by 0.7 percent. The composition of employment shifts from retail and wholesale trade to warehousing and tradeable services, primarily driven by younger workers. Employment gains are concentrated among non-college workers. Rents increase by 1.1 percent, utility costs increase by 6.0 percent, and home values increase by 5.6 percent. I interpret these results through the lens of a static spatial equilibrium model. I find a net increase in aggregate welfare: the average worker is willing to pay $329 per year (0.8 percent of income) to live in a large city with Amazon. The welfare gains are primarily driven by rising home values; the increase in employment, wages, and sectoral shifts account for only one-tenth of the increase. These positive impacts are partially offset by rising local costs of living and the declining value of non-wage amenities in large cities. Government subsidies have a negligible effect on welfare as they are a small share of state and local budgets.

Understanding PMI - A Key to Economic Analysis

On April 3, 2025, Swedbank and Silf will visit Jönköping International Business School for a lecture on what PMI is, why it is conducted, and how the index can be used both for educational purposes and as a decision-making tool for purchasing managers. During the lecture, the latest PMI results will be presented.

Jörgen Kennemar from Swedbank and Emil Ahlström from Silf Network will discuss the current economic situation in the Swedish manufacturing and service sectors and the purchasing plans. They will highlight the bright spots and challenges  Swedish companies face and provide an international outlook.

 About PMI

PMI is an essential economic indicator derived from surveys conducted among 200 purchasing managers. With values above 50 indicating growth and below showing decline, the index provides important insights used by economists, analysts, and policymakers to understand market conditions.

Since its establishment in collaboration with Swedbank and Silf (Swedish Association for Purchasing and Logistics) in 1994, the Swedish PMI has been instrumental in guiding informed business strategies.

The event is free and open to everyone interested.
