I'm so fortunate that this paper got published in such a good journal.
I hope that it can be a helpful guide for future researchers who want to work at the intersection of economics and genetics and estimate Gene-Environment interplay #GxE
This paper started with data. We were convinced that the discrepancy between book and market values of banks was key to understanding the data. We then developed a theory where, with a simple model, only one state variable driving Tobin's Q, you can explain several data moments.
