No podcast ‘Notícia No Seu Tempo', confira em áudio as principais notícias da edição impressa do jornal ‘O Estado de S.Paulo' desta segunda-feira (17/06/2024): A falta de mão de obra qualificada, ocorrida há pouco mais de uma década, voltou a atingir o setor de construção civil, que busca entregar no prazo os imóveis lançados nos últimos anos. A escassez de profissionais atinge de serventes e engenheiros a pedreiros, azulejistas e pintores. Empresas disputam profissionais empregados. Para atrair e reter trabalhadores, as construtoras aumentam o gasto com pessoal, custo que em algum momento é repassado ao preço dos imóveis. Outro recurso é o trabalho “por tarefa”. As empresas também investem em treinamento. Cursos de formação incluem mulheres e imigrantes que queiram atuar na área. O uso de novas tecnologias, como estruturas pré-fabricadas, que são apenas montadas nos canteiros de obra e reduzem a necessidade de trabalhadores, tem sido intensificado. E mais: Economia: Concorrência chinesa e comércio online esvaziam ruas do Bom Retiro Política: Conselho de Ética arquiva punições a deputados brigões e clima se agrava Metrópole: Ilhas de calor de SP expõem fragilidade de áreas com menos verde Internacional: EUA mudam estratégia no leste da Ásia para conseguir apoio de paísesSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Then they get into Shiller's newest book "Narrative Economics: How Stories Go Viral and Drive Major Economic Events." Shiller argues that studying popular stories that affect individual and collective economic behavior, what he calls "narrative economics" has the potential to vastly improve our ability to predict, prepare for, and lessen the damage of financial crises.Guest:Robert Shiller - He is an american economist, academic, and best-selling author.

For decades or centuries, economists and decision theorists have struggled to use probability to understand how individuals respond to risk and ambiguity. When investors or consumers face a complex economic environment, it is challenging to represent the uncertainty they face with probability theory. At this Friedman Forum, Lars Peter Hansen, a leader in this field, demonstrates how to think about this problem—and why it matters.
