Micro evidence indicates that each period a fraction of prices is kept unchanged under a positive trend inflation rate. In a sticky price model based on this evidence, recent research shows that high trend inflation is a serious cause for indeterminacy of rational expectations equilibrium under...

Carlstrom and Fuerst [2005. Investment and interest rate policy: a discrete time analysis. Journal of Economic Theory 123, 4-20.] show that in the presence of investment activity and price stickiness, indeterminacy of equilibrium is induced by forward-looking monetary policy that sets the...

This paper examines the implications of labor market search and matching frictions for determinacy and E-stability of rational expectations equilibrium (REE) in a sticky price model with interest rate policy. When labor adjustment takes place solely at the extensive margin, forecast-based policy...

This study examines the quantitative properties of optimal sustainable monetary policies using a monetary model with a stabilization bias. As in Kurozumi (2008), the optimal sustainable policy is a strategy considered in the absence of commitment technologies; however it is implemented following...
