Internal and External Barriers to Energy Efficiency: Made-to-Measure Policy Interventions
Cattaneo, Cristina - 2018
This paper has two objectives. First it provides a correlation between internal and external barriers to energy efficiency and consumer behaviour related to two domains. It evaluates behaviour related to energy curtailment, which represents routine, repetitive effort to decrease consumption on a...

The conquest of South American inflation
Sargent, Thomas; Williams, Noah; Zha, Tao - 2006
We infer determinants of Latin American hyperinflations and stabilizations by using the method of maximum likelihood to estimate a hidden Markov model that potentially assigns roles both to fundamentals in the form of government deficits that are financed by money creation and to destabilizing...

Studying the short-run dynamics of inflation: Estimating a hybrid new-keynesian Phillips Curve for Argentina (1993-2007)
D'Amato, Laura; Garegnani, María Lorena - 2009
We estimate a 'Hybrid New-Keynesian Phillips Curve' for Argentina between 1993 and 2007. We extend the model to a small open economy, considering separately the influence of nominal devaluation and foreign inflation on domestic prices. For the whole sample, we find that forward and...

Fiscal policy shocks and stock prices in the United States
Mumtaz, Haroon; Theodoridis, Konstantinos - 2017
This paper uses a range of structural VARs to show that the response of US stock prices to fiscal shocks changed in 1980. Over the period 1955-1980 an expansionary spending or revenue shock was associated with modestly higher stock prices. After 1980, along with a decline in the fiscal...

The Federal Reserve's implicit inflation target and macroeconomic dynamics: A SVAR analysis
Mumtaz, Haroon; Theodoridis, Konstantinos - 2017
This paper identifies shocks to the Federal Reserve's inflation target as VAR innovations that make the largest contribution to future movements in long-horizon inflation expectations. The effectiveness of this scheme is documented via Monte-Carlo experiments. The estimated impulse responses...
