Economic agents form expectations from simple models and update th...

Each economy has a monetary policymaker that attempts to control the economy through the use of a linear nominal interest rate feedback rule. We show how the determinacy of worldwide equilibrium depends on the joint behavior of policymakers worldwide. We also show how indeterminacy exposes all econom...
متن کاملAsset Prices, Monetary Policy and Macroeconomic Stability
A focal point of macroeconomic policy analysis over the past decade has been whether central banks should respond to changes in asset prices. This thesis addresses the question from the distinct perspective of equilibrium determinacy. By obtaining the conditions for equilibrium determinacy, it is possible to ascertain whether a central bank could induce additional volatility in an economy by ad...
متن کاملMonetary Policy and the Stability of Macroeconomic Relationships
Estimates of the effect of different international monetary regimes on the parameters of the Phillips curve, the Keynesian consumption function, and other reduced-form macroeconomic relationships are given. The estimates provide a quantitative assessment of the importance of the Lucas critique for such regime shifts. The estimates are calculated by stochastically simulating an estimated multico...
