An economist in B-School can do whatever he did in Econ with better pay, better benefits and even better Ph.D. students to teach. As long as the B-School wants him. Cochrane is a macro/asset pricing guy, so his service should be needed in B-School. Once he got a choice, I don't see why he wouldn't make such a move.<br /><br />I don't know Prof. Cochrane in person, so he might have other reasons to do so which I have no knowledge of. However, I couldn't see any opportunity cost so big that could prevent him from making the decision he made.CCLuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08569770663341206042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8261438457608174618.post-6719712515127172072010-03-16T18:49:15.906+08:002010-03-16T18:49:15.906+08:00Can I ask a slightly off-topic question?

Why Professor Cochrane leave the department to enter business school?楊大寶https://www.blogger.com/profile/04692847628587763718noreply@blogger.com
