We propose simulation-based forecasting methods for the noncausal vector autoregressive model proposed by Lanne and … simulation procedures. Simulation experiments demonstrate that gains in forecasting accuracy are achieved by using the correct … of U.S. inflation and marginal cost turns out superior to the best-fitting conventional causal VAR model in forecasting …

We investigate changes in the time series characteristics of postwar U.S. inflation. In a model-based analysis the … conditional mean of inflation is specified by a long memory autoregressive fractionally integrated moving average process and the … efficient estimates of the parameters using a monthly dataset of core inflation for which we consider different subsamples of …

In this study, we investigate forecasting performance of various univariate and multivariate models in predicting … inflation for different horizons. We design our forecast experiment for the post-oil boom years of 2010-2014 and compare … forecasting ability of the different models with that of naïve ones. We find that for all forecast horizons simple naïve models …

This paper surveys the recent literature on inflation forecasting and conducts an extensive empirical analysis on … forecasting inflation in Singapore, Japan, South Korea and Hong Kong paying particular attention to whether the inflation …-markup theory can help to forecast inflation. We first review the relative performance of different predictors in forecasting h …

While these measures have been useful in developing models of forecasting inflation, the data …I present evidence that higher frequency measures of inflation expectations outperform lower frequency measures of … inflation expectations in tests of accuracy, predictive power, and rationality. For decades, the academic literature has focused …

In this paper, we examine whether industry-level forecasts of CPI and PPI inflation can be improved using the …, which should be manifested, possibly with a lag, in both producer and consumer prices. We build a forecasting model based on … a two or three equation system involving CPI and PPI inflation where the effects of the exchange rate and import prices …
