Optimal monetary policy with state-dependent pricing

Nakov, Anton; Thomas, Carlos - 2010

We study optimal monetary policy in a flexible state-dependent pricing framework, in which monopolistic competition and stochastic menu costs are the only distortions. We show analytically that it is optimal to commit to zero inflation in the long run. Moreover, our numerical simulations...

Bullard, James Brian (contributor); … - 2005

We study how the use of judgement or add-factorsʺ in macroeconomic forecasting may disturb the set of equilibrium outcomes when agents learn using recursive methods. We isolate conditions under which new phenomena, which we call exuberance equilibria, can exist in standard macroeconomic...

Monetary policy implications of state-dependent prices and wages

Costain, James; Nakov, Anton; Petit, Borja - 2019

We study the effects of monetary shocks in a model of state-dependent price and wage adjustment based on "control costs". Suppliers of retail goods and of labor are both monopolistic competitors that face idiosyncratic productivity shocks and nominal rigidities. Stickiness arises because precise...

Climate-conscious monetary policy

Nakov, Anton; Thomas, Carlos - 2023

We study the implications of climate change and the associated mitigation measures for optimal monetary policy in a canonical New Keynesian model with climate externalities. Provided they are set at their socially optimal level, carbon taxes pose no trade-offs for monetary policy: it is both...
