That is a new paper by Alberto Prati and Claudia Senik, here is the abstract: We revisit the famous Easterlin paradox by considering that life evaluation scales refer to a changing context, hence they are regularly reinterpreted.

GBP/USD consolidates during the North American session on Monday after last Friday’s dovish tilt by the Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, who said that risks to the labor markets are rising, an indication that monetary policy is cooling the jobs market.
Aussie firmed notably after July’s CPI data came in much stronger than expected. The print reinforces the case for the RBA to maintain its gradual easing pace, removing any immediate scope for a faster round of rate cuts. Aussie’s gains were evident against the Euro and Sterling, with both crosses under renewed downside pressure.
GBP/USD drops over 0.16% on Wednesday as the US Dollar (USD) continues to recover some ground, courtesy of the White House's threats to the independence of the Federal Reserve (Fed), which triggered a rise on the long end of US Treasury bond yields.
In currency markets, Dollar softened as this week’s rebound lost steam. Overall trading remained subdued with no major catalysts. Yen led gains on the day, followed by Loonie and Swiss Franc. On the downside, Euro lagged most, trailed by Dollar and Kiwi, while Sterling and Aussie held middle ground.
The British Pound (GBP) is rapidly recovering from Friday’s hiccup and manages to regain composure on Monday, lifting GBP/USD past 1.3500, a figure in a context dominated by the widespread selling bias in the US Dollar (USD).
Sterling’s outlook is bearish as sticky, services-led inflation (3.8% core; 5% services y/y), slowing and unbalanced growth, and tight public finances weigh on GBP. The Bank of England is likely to deliver one more 25 bp cut in November and then pause, with markets sceptical of further easing. A cooling labour market, weak goods exports, and a pivotal October Budget keep volatility risks elevated.
