In an open economy with a floaLing exchange rate, the efficacy of fiscal and monetary policy depends fundamentally on the wage-setting pnxiess. In the canonical models of Mundell and Fleming, monetary expansion raises output via an exchange rate depreciation, while fiscal expansion has no output effect. These results hold only when real wages can be altered by exchange rate movements; if the re...
متن کاملExchange rates and fundamentals under adaptive learning
This paper studies a monetary model that is standard in all respects except that market participants have incomplete knowledge about the economic structure and employ adaptive learning rules to learn about the economic environment. Market participants also must contend with unannounced regime shifts. Simulation results suggest that the models under adaptive learning, especially constant-gain le...
متن کاملExchange Rates and Fundamentals: Footloose or Evolving Relationship?
Using novel real-time data on a broad set of economic fundamentals for ve major US dollar exchange rates over the recent oat, we employ a predictive procedure that allows the relationship between exchange rates and fundamentals to evolve over time in a very general fashion. Our key ndings are that: (i) the well-documented weak out-of-sample predictive ability of exchange rate models may be c...

We show that the existence of momentum and contrarian profits imposes restrictions on stochastic discount factors used to price stocks in equity markets. For several widely used asset pricing models, we demonstrate that these restrictions imply testable forms of intertemporal dependence in macroeconomic fundamentals such as consumption growth rate. Extensive empirical analysis provides supporti...
متن کاملMacroeconomic Fundamentals and the DM/$ Exchange Rate: Imperfect Knowledge and the Monetary Model
Despite the volumes written on the failure of empirical exchange rate models, there is a key feature of the record that is much overlooked, namely there are some subperiods of floating rates during which macroeconomic models provide reasonable explanations of monthly or quarterly exchange rate movements and other subperiods during which the explanatory power of these models completely disappear...
