revisit claims in the literature that money growth is Granger-causal for inflation at low frequencies. Applying frequency … Granger-causal for low-frequency inflation movements, and all variables affect money growth. We therefore interpret opposite … results from bivariate inflation/money growth systems as spurious due to omittedvariable biases. We also analyze the resulting …
