Monetary Policy, Sectoral Comovement and the Credit Channel
Di Pace, Federico; Görtz, Christoph - 2021
Using a structural vector autoregression, we document that a contractionary monetary policy shock triggers a decline in durable and non-durable outputs as well as a contraction in bank equity and a rise in the excess bond premium. The latter points to an important transmission channel of...

A Note on Temporary Supply Shocks with Aggregate Demand Inertia
Caballero, Ricardo J.; Simsek, Alp - 2022
We study optimal monetary policy during temporary supply contractions when aggregate demand has inertia and expansionary policy is constrained. In this environment, it is optimal to run the economy hot until supply recovers. Positive output gaps in the low-supply phase lessen the negative output...

Monetary Policy and Asset Price Overshooting : A Rationale for the Wall/Main Street Disconnect
Caballero, Ricardo J.; Simsek, Alp - 2022
We analyze optimal monetary policy and its implications for asset prices, when aggregate demand has inertia and responds to asset prices with a lag. If there is a negative output gap, the central bank optimally overshoots aggregate asset prices (asset prices are initially pushed above their...

Causal Effects of Countercyclical Interest Rates : Evidence from the Classical Gold Standard
Mitchener, Kris James; Pina, Gonçalo - 2022
We estimate the causal impact of countercyclical interest rates on macroeconomic outcomes in open economies. To identify countercyclical interest rates, we construct a new database of short-term interest rates, principal exports, and international commodity prices for 40 economies from 1870 to...

Switching-Track after the Great Recession
Vinci, Francesca; Licandro, Omar - 2021
We propose a theoretical framework to reconcile episodes of V-shaped and L-shaped recovery, encompassing the behaviour of the U.S. economy before and after the Great Recession. In a DSGE model with endogenous growth, negative demand shocks destroy productive capacity, moving GDP to a lower...
