We use a random cross … both the inflation and deflation periods, and the parameter on the second moment changes sign in the deflation period, as … the theory predicts.

The link between US labor cost and price inflation has weakened notably over the past three decades. In this paper we … economy of late: (i) improved anchoring of inflation expectations; (ii) the changing constellation of shocks hitting the … economy; (iii) increased trade integration and (iv) rising firm market power. We find that the improved anchoring of inflation …

The uncertainty of U.S. core inflation, measured by the stochastic volatility of forecast errors, has soared to a level … increase after a positive shock to core inflation uncertainty in a vector autoregression. Endogenous changes in household … inflation expectations help to understand the transmission mechanism through which an inflation uncertainty shock generates …
