The aim of this study is to examine the nonlinear effects of fiscal and monetary policies on inflation during 1990:3 to 2013:1 based on threshold model. First lag of the liquidity growth is recognized as threshold variable with threshold value estimated at 6.37 percent. In low liquidity growth, the results indicate that inflation expectations and the lagged liquidity growth are the most importa...

We study what happens to identified shocks and dynamic responses when the data generating process features q disturbances but 1 < variables are used in an empirical model. Identified linear combinations of current past values all structural do not necessarily combine same type. Theory-based restrictions may be insufficient obtain dynamics. revisit evidence regarding transmission house price ...

Is credit expansion a sign of desirable financial deepening or the prelude to an inevitable bust? We study this question in modern US data using structural VAR model 10 monthly frequency variables, identified by heteroskedasticity. Negative reduced-form responses output growth are caused endogenous monetary policy response shocks. On average, and remain positively associated. “Financial stress”...

We provide predictions for DSGE models with incomplete information that are robust across structures. Our approach maps an incomplete-information model into a full-information economy time-varying expectation wedges and provides conditions ensure the rationalizable by some structure. Using our approach, we quantify potential importance of as source business cycle fluctuations in otherwise frict...

We build a model in which the Fed and market disagree about future aggregate demand. The anticipates monetary policy “mistakes,” affect current demand induce to partially accommodate market’s view. expects implement its view gradually. Announcements that reveal an unexpected change Fed’s belief provide microfoundation for shocks. Tantrum shocks arise when misinterprets overreacts announcement. ...

We develop a deep learning model to detect emotions embedded in press conferences after the Federal Open Market Committee meetings and examine influence of detected on financial markets. find that, controlling for Reserve’s actions sentiment policy texts, positive tone voices Reserve chairs leads significant increases share prices. Other variables also respond vocal cues from chairs. Hence, how...

Within a unified framework, the author conducts an empirical investigation of dynamic interrelationships among inflation, inflation uncertainty, relative price dispersion, and output growth. Focusing on the Canadian industrial sector, the author finds weak evidence that inflation uncertainty rises with the level of inflation, with short-run inflation uncertainty minimized at a trend inflation r...

i n the past decades, the effect of different tax amendments on various economic issues has been studied. the majority of these studies have avoided considering shadow economy as part of the calculation and analysis, and an issue, which has received little attention, is the relationship between green tax reforms and shadow economy, as for informal labor, which is well-connected to unemployment ...

This paper studies U.S. in‡ation adjustment speed to aggregate technology shocks and to monetary policy shocks in a medium size Bayesian VAR model. According to the model estimated on the 1959-2007 sample, in‡ation adjusts much faster to aggregate technology shocks than to monetary policy shocks. These results are robust to di¤erent identi…cation assumptions and measures of aggregate prices. Ho...
