Lol at comparing AEJMacro to JFQA...
JFQA, JET, or AEJ macro
-
JFQA is second tier in finance, and it has not been improving. It has value because of the FT50 list, but it will not stay on that list forever.
The poor JFQA, has not been an A for 30 years and can't get back. Still, i see a lot of carefully done extensions, corrections in there, or similar papers to top 3 with better data. JFQA's problem is that after perusing top 3 and my top field, i have to stop looking at what other people are doing or I would get nothing done.
JET is all over the place on quality/usefullness sorta like SMJ.
