Abstract

This paper uses high frequency data on the distribution of US income to investigatethe heterogeneous effects of oil supply news shocks. Using a FAVAR with an external instrument, We show that these shocks have large negative effects on the left and right tail of the distribution. For low income individuals, the effect is driven by a decline in wages and proprietor’s income, while a fall in corporate profits and interest income drives the effect for affluent individuals.
