We explore the stability properties of interest rate rules granting an explicit response to stock prices in a New-Keynesian DSGE model populated by Blanchard-Yaari non-Ricardian households. The constant turnover between long-time stock holders and asset-poor newcomers generates a financial...

We assess the conditions under which an interest rate rule granting an explicit response to stock prices can shield the economy against endogenous aggregate instability in the form of fluctuations driven by self-fulfilling beliefs, and fundamental equilibria that are not learnable in the...

Empirical evidence suggests that goods are highly heterogeneous with respect to the degree of price rigidity. We develop a two-sector dynamic general equilibrium model to study the equilibrium determinacy properties of interest rate rules that respond to inflation measures differing in their...

We investigate whether monetary policy defined as an interest rate rule should respond to stock prices fluctuations under the following two criteria: 1) the rule must guarantee a unique equilibrium and 2) the MSV representation of this unique equilibrium must be learnable in the E-stability...

We present an extensive analysis of the consequences for global equilibrium determinacy in flexible-price open economies of implementing active interest rate rules, i.e., monetary rules where the nominal interest rate responds more than proportionally to inflation. We show that conditions under...

In this paper we present an extensive analysis of the consequences for global equilibrium determinacy of implementing active interest rate rules (i.e. monetary rules where the nominal interest rate responds more than proportionally to changes in inflation) in flexible-price open economies. We...
