Oil price shocks are the major source of economic instability in oil exporting developing countries, including Iran. In this paper a Multi Sector Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium model, with emphasis on optimization of oil sector as a producing sector is designed. Furthermore, an optimizing import sector is introduced into the model by considering the price rigidity in imported goods as a...

We conducted a study analyzing the impact of productivity shocks on equity returns in U.S. economy from Q1 1960 to 2022 using an RBC DSGE model. Our results suggest that while initial lead higher returns, this effect fades within eight quarters. Nonetheless, such can still provide valuable signals for investors strategically allocate their investments sectors may benefit most. also found respon...
