That one is indeed very old news. Honestly, I didn't even think he was still considered "here", I thought he left last year :P. I guess he's been on leave. I'm therefore inclined to doubt him a bit more that I otherwise would, because I'm not sure how in the loop he is. From my perspective there was more gossip and worry in the early fall than there was by this year, so maybe he missed that part. But maybe he's stayed in touch. We shall see....

I doubt it. From my understanding, Levine was paid some unholy sum for his transfer ($300-400k).

I think Levine will be as Wash U for a while. I believe he sold his house in LA and owns one in St Louis.

A couple people mentioned the Berkeley issue -- look again that the Economic Principals piece for more rumors about potential moves.

One more recent tidbit: Monika Piazzesi and Martin Schneider are presumably going to Stanford. They've been visiting the Minneapolis Fed (her from Chicago GSB, he from NYU) and were rumored to be on the way to Princeton, but now seem to be headed to Stanford.

Jesus, if Reis, Schmitt-Grohe and Uribe all join Woodford at Columbia that is a dominant franchise in Monetary Economics

Also I can confirm that Monika Piazzesi and Martin Schneider will be at Stanford.
