Applying frequency …-specific tests in a comprehensive system setup for euro-area data we consider various theoretical predictors of inflation.

In contrast to earlier studies, we confirm that U.S. long-term inflation expectations respond significantly to a … monetary policy shock. In line with a re-anchoring channel of monetary policy, we find that long-term inflation expectations …

This relationship is strong during periods of high-inflation … but even stronger during low-inflation periods. We establish a causal relationship by implementing a randomized …
