His paper introduces structural VAR analysis as a tool for investigating the anchoring of inflation expectations. We … show that U.S. consumers’ inflation expectations are anchored in the long run because macro-news shocks are long …-run neutral for long-term inflation expectations. The identification of structural shocks helps to explain why inflation …

Our estimated structural VARs show that both … long- and short-term inflation expectations are sensible to policy-related uncertainty shocks. A rise of long …-term inflation expectations in times of economic contraction, in response to such shocks, suggests that heightened policy uncertainty …

This paper uses a "trendy" approach to understand UK inflation dynamics. It focuses on the time series to isolate a low …-frequency and slow-moving component of inflation (the trend) from deviations around this trend. We find that this slow-moving trend … explains a substantial share of UK inflation dynamics. International prices are significantly correlated with the short …
