In this study, we investigate forecasting performance of various univariate and multivariate models in predicting … inflation for different horizons. We design our forecast experiment for the post-oil boom years of 2010-2014 and compare … forecasting ability of the different models with that of naïve ones. We find that for all forecast horizons simple naïve models …
