This paper characterizes Federal Reserve policy since 1980 as one that actively manages short-term nominal interest rates in order to control inflation and evaluates this policy using a dynamic, stochastic, sticky-price model of the United States economy. The results show that the Fed’s policy insulates aggregate output from the effects of exogenous demand-side disturbances and, by calling for ...

Our main result is that dynamic new-Keynesian (DNK) models with firm-specific capital feature a substantial amount of endogenous price stickiness. We use this insight to assess the desirability of alternative interest rate rules, and make the case for combining active monetary policy with interest rate smoothing and/or some responsiveness of the nominal interest rate to real economic activity. ...

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...

Previous research has primarily examined the link between price, income, and consumer spending using linear regression models. On other hand, latest evidence shows an asymmetric among economic financial variables. We contribute to literature by employing a novel technique known as ARDL model. This approach is used investigate impact of favorable unfavorable changes in income prices on household...

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...

By using the Darboux frame |?, ?, ?| of a non-null curve lying on timelike surface in Minkowski 3-space, where ? is unit tangent vector curve, spacelike normal field restricted to and = ?? we define relatively normal-slant helices as curves satisfying condition that scalar product fixed spanning their axis non-constant constant. We give necessary sufficient conditions for be helices. consider s...

Transparent ITO/PZT/ITO capacitors were fabricated on 200 mm glass substrate. The PZT films of 1 µm and 2 thickness first grown platinized Si wafer by sol–gel method, then transferred onto substrate together with ITO electrodes following an innovative process. obtained based stacks show average transmission about 70% in the visible range. keep their preferred (100) orientation after transfer ex...

The purpose of this study is to examine the degree exchange rate pass-through (ERPT) with focus on Taylor (2000)’s hypothesis that asserts ERPT tends be high (low) in inflation states. To end, a panel quantile regression applied data from 37 countries over period 1996-2018. allows us capture distributional heterogeneity coefficient and thus directly address question whether depends inflationary...

We use microdata collected at the border and store to characterize price impact of recent US trade policy on importers, exporters, consumers. At border, import tariff pass-through is much higher than exchange rate pass-through. Chinese exporters did not lower their dollar prices by much, despite appreciation dollar. By contrast, significantly lowered affected foreign retaliatory tariffs. In sto...

This paper evaluates the literature on international unconventional monetary policies (UMPs). Introducing market segmentation, limits-to-arbitrage, and time-consistent policy in standard models permits a theoretical role for UMP. Empirical studies provide compelling evidence that UMPs influenced asset prices tail risk desired manner. Calibrated modeling vector autoregressive (VAR) exercises imp...
