Information stickiness in general equilibrium and endogenous cycles

Gomes, Orlando - 2012

Traditionally, observed fluctuations in aggregate economic time series have been mainly modelled as being the result of exogenous disturbances. A better understanding of macroeconomic phenomena, however, surely requires looking directly at the relations between variables that may trigger...

Information stickiness on general equilibrium and endogenous cycles

Gomes, Orlando - In: Economics: The Open-Access, Open-Assessment E-Journal 7 (2013) 2013-4, pp. 1-43

Intra-Industry Trade, Involuntary Unemployment and Macroeconomic Stability

Le Riche, Antoine; Lloyd-Braga, Teresa; Modesto, Leonor - 2021

indeterminate. After opening the borders, the rigid wage country may export indeterminacy to the full employment country …, particularly if it is big enough. In contrast, when the full employment country is sufficiently big, local indeterminacy, and … fluctuations (associated with local indeterminacy and bifurcations) are possible with smaller externalities, whatever the relative …

Market distortions and local indeterminacy: A general approach

Lloyd-Braga, Teresa; Modesto, Leonor; Seegmuller, Thomas - 2011

We provide a methodology to study the role of market distortions on the emergence of indeterminacy and bifurcations … classes of distortions responsible for indeterminacy. Our methodology consists in introducing general specifications for the … distortions influence the range of values for the elasticity of inputs substitution under which local indeterminacy and …

Block-Recursive Equilibria in Heterogenous-Agent Models

Kaas, Leo - 2020

Equilibrium models with heterogeneous agents and aggregate uncertainty are difficult to analyze since policy functions and market prices depend on the cross-sectional distribution over agents’ state variables which is generally a high-dimensional object. This paper develops and applies a...

The natural rate hypothesis and real determinacy

Meyer-Gohde, Alexander - 2008

The uniqueness of bounded local equilibria under interest rate rules is analyzed in a model with sticky information à la Mankiw and Reis (2002). The main results are tighter bounds on monetary policy than in sticky-price models, irrelevance of the degree of output-gap targeting for determinacy,...

Equilibrium Selection and Monetary Policy; A Natural Rate Perspective

Meyer-Gohde, Alexander - 2010

The analysis of this paper examines the uniqueness of equilibria in a broad class of dynamic monetary models that satisfy Lucas's (1972) natural rate hypothesis (NRH). For a given demand specification, the resulting bounds for determinacy on monetary policy's interest rate rule are the same for...

An inventory of simple monetary policy rules in a new Keynesian macroeconomic model

Lubik, Thomas A.; Marzo, Massimiliano - 2003

We derive necessary and suffcient conditions for simple monetary policy rules that guarantee equilibrium determinacy in the New Keynesian monetary model. Our modeling framework is derived from a fully specified optimization model that is still amenable to analytical characterisation. The...

Testing for indeterminacy: An application to US monetary policy

Lubik, Thomas A.; Schorfheide, Frank - 2002

This paper considers a prototypical monetary business cycle model for the U.S. economy, in which the equilibrium is undetermined if monetary policy is ‘inactive? In previous multivariate studies it has been common practice to restrict parameter estimates to values for which the equilibrium is...

Are stationary hyperinflation paths learnable?

Adam, Klaus; Evans, George W.; Honkapohja, Seppo - 2003

Earlier studies of the seigniorage inflation model have found that the high-inflation steady state is not stable under adaptive learning. We reconsider this issue and analyze the full set of solutions for the linearized model. Our main focus is on stationary hyperinflationary paths near the...
