Monetary policy and the relative price of durable goods
Cantelmo, Alessandro; Melina, Giovanni - 2015
In a VAR model of the US, the response of the relative price of durables to a monetary contraction is either flat or mildly positive. It significantly falls only if narrowly defined as the ratio between new house and nondurables prices. These findings survive three identification strategies and...

Heterogeneous consumers, segmented asset markets, and the real effects of monetary policy
Enders, Zeno - 2017
This paper proposes a novel mechanism by which changes in the distribution of money holdings have real effects. Specifically, I develop a flexible-price model of segmented asset markets that generates real aggregate effects of monetary policy through the dependence of optimal markups on the...

Subjective models of the macroeconomy : evidence from experts and a representative sample

While expert predictions are quantitatively close to benchmarks from … predictions of changes in inflation are at odds with those of experts both for the tax shock and the interest rate shock.

The propagation of monetary policy shocks in a heterogeneous production economy
Pasten, Ernesto; Schoenle, Raphael; Weber, Michael - 2018 - This version: November 2018
We study the transmission of monetary policy shocks in a model in which realistic heterogeneity in price rigidity interacts with heterogeneity in sectoral size and input-output linkages, and derive conditions under which these heterogeneities generate large real effects. Empirically,...

Real and nominal effects of monetary shocks under time-varying disagreement
Esady, Vania - 2019
This paper investigates the heterogeneity of monetary policy transmission under time-varying disagreement regimes using a threshold VAR. Empirically, I establish that during times of high disagreement, prices respond more sluggishly in response to monetary shocks. These stickier prices cause a...

Macroeconomic shocks and racial labour market differences in the U.S.
De, Kuhelika; Compton, Ryan A.; Giedeman, Daniel C.; … - 2019
Using 136 United States macroeconomic indicators from 1973 to 2017, and a factor augmented vector autoregression (FAVAR) framework with sign restrictions, we investigate the effects of three structural macroeconomic shocks - monetary, demand, and supply - on the labour market outcomes of black...

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...

Commodity price shocks and global cycles : monetary policy matters
Castelnuovo, Efrem; Mori, Lorenzo; Peersman, Gert - 2024
We employ a structural VAR model with global and US variables to study the relevance and transmission of oil, food commodities, and industrial input price shocks. We show that commodities are not all alike. Industrial input price changes are almost entirely endogenous responses to other shocks....
