Journal of Business & Economic Statistics, 2025, vol. 43, issue 4, 770-777

Abstract: This article was prepared as a comment on “Dynamic Causal Effects in a Nonlinear World: the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly” by Michal Kolesár and Mikkel Plagborg-Møller. We make three comments, including a novel contribution to the literature, showing how a reasonable economic interpretation can potentially be restored for average-effect estimators with negative weights.
