Dear Research Colleagues,

     As long as public health conditions in the fall are similar to
those today, the NBER is planning to host a number of hybrid program
meetings, including a meeting of the Asset Pricing program on Friday
November 5 in Cambridge.  Those who are fully vaccinated are welcome to
attend in-person.  The meeting will also be available for virtual access
on Zoom.  The NBER conference team is preparing to sign  a hotel
contract with a room block for this meeting, and I am writing because I
would like to provide them with some guidance on potential in-person
attendance.  Past experience may not be a very good guide for this fall!

     I have designed a very brief SurveyMonkey questionnaire that asks
whether you are likely to attend the fall meeting in person and to need
a hotel room if you do.  I would be very grateful if you could visit
this link

and indicate your best guess regarding your fall plans. Responses are
anonymous and non-binding, and will be most helpful if received by
tomorrow afternoon, Tuesday July 20.   Thank you!

     I hope that you are enjoying the Summer Institute and in particular
the YouTube postings of meeting presentations.  I am very grateful for
your ongoing support.  All best wishes.
