Comovements of Budget Deficits, Exchange Rates, and Outputs of Traded and Non-traded Goods.
Between 1974:1-1989:2, it appears that U.S. budget deficits and real exchange rates are correlated. This paper attempts to provide a structural explanation of these comovements in government budget deficits and exchange rates. The model expands on previous wo rks to include fiscal policy considerations in a stochastic set-up. It shows that within a simple two-country cash-in-advance constraint model, it is possible to have a positive correlation between budget deficits and exchange rates, as well as a negative correlation betwe en exchange rates and domestic traded goods production.
