Professor Rahul Vashishtha explains what research shows about the trade-offs. When companies report earnings more frequently, they make different investment choices, often abandoning profitable long-term projects that don't pay off quickly. This behavioral shift sits at the heart of President Trump's renewed call to end quarterly reporting requirements in favor of six-month reporting cycles.In this episode, Professor Rahul Vashishtha discusses his research examining what happened during the historical shift from annual to semi-annual to quarterly reporting between 1950 and 1970.Vashishtha found that when c...

2025-08-0414 minDuke Fuqua Insights"What Happens to Innovation If Research Funding Gets Cut?" w/ Prof Dan GrossThe next breakthrough drug or industry-disrupting innovation may come from a university lab funded by a federal grant. But a policy shift around how the government supports overhead costs could change which projects are pursued, and which institutions can afford to compete.When the federal government funds scientific research, universities negotiate overhead rates of 50 to 70% over the direct costs of research to cover expenses like lab space and utilities. In reality, they receive far less due to complex accounting rules. For more than 60 years, this complicated system of "indirect cost recovery” has funded America’s research infrastructure.

In this podcast, Professors Richard Larrick and Jack Soll, along with PhD candidate Jessica Reif from Duke University’s Fuqua School of Business, discuss their research into how artificial intelligence tools are reshaping workplace dynamics. Their findings highlight a key paradox: while generative AI can boost performance, using it often makes workers appear less competent, less diligent, and even lazier in the eyes of others.Drawing on a series of experiments, the researchers show that people who use AI fo...
