چکیده

This paper investigates the relationship between short term and long term in‡ation expectations in the US and the UK with a focus on in‡ation pass through (i.e. how changes in short term expectations a¤ect long term expectations). An econometric methodology is used which allows us to uncover the relationship between in‡ation pass through and various explanatory variables. We relate our empirical results to theoretical models of anchored, contained and unmoored in‡ation expectations. For neither country do we …nd anchored or unmoored in‡ation expectations. For the US, contained in‡ation expectations are found. For the UK, our …ndings are not consistent with the speci…c model of contained in‡ation expectations presented here, but are consistent with a more broad view of expectations being constrained by the existence of an in‡ation target. The views expressed in this paper are those of the authors and do not necessarily re‡ect the views of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York or the Federal Reserve System. Gary Koop is a Fellow of the Rimini Center for Economic Analysis.
