Intrinsic and Inherited Inflation Persistence
In the conventional view of inflation, the New Keynesian Phillips curve (NKPC) captures most of the persistence in inflation. The sources of persistence are twofold. First, the “driving process” for inflation is quite persistent, and the NKPC implies that inflation must “inherit” this persistence. Second, backward-looking or indexing behavior imparts some “intrinsic” persistence to inflation. T...
متن کاملIs Inflation Persistence Intrinsic in Industrial Economies?
Abstract: Many empirical studies have indicated that inflation exhibits very high persistence throughout the post-war period in nearly every industrial economy. In this paper we challenge this conventional wisdom and instead argue that in many cases, high inflation persistence is an artifact of empirical techniques that fail to account for occasional shifts in the monetary policy regime. In par...
متن کاملInflation Persistence
This chapter examines the concept of inflation persistence in macroeconomic theory. It begins with a definition of persistence, emphasizing the difference between reduced-form and structural persistence. It then examines a number of empirical measures of reduced-form persistence, considering the possibility that persistence has changed over time. The chapter then examines the theoretical source...
متن کاملNoncausality and inflation persistence
We use noncausal autoregressions to examine the persistence properties of quarterly U.S. consumer price inflation from 1970:1—2012:2. These nonlinear models capture the autocorrelation structure of the inflation series as accurately as their conventional causal counterparts, but they allow for persistence to depend on the size and sign of shocks to inflation as well as the inflation rate. Infla...
متن کاملMisalignment on the Persistence of Inflation in Iran
The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of exchange rate misalignment on inflation persistence. For this purpose, Vector Auto Regression method and Markov Switching model is used for quarterly data during 1989:4 -2014:3. The results show that, the impact of liquidity growth and exchange rate misalignment on inflation persistence is positive. On the other hand, GDP growth has a ne...
