We show that low trend inflation strongly affects the dynamics of a standard Neo-Keynesian model where monetary policy … is described by a standard Taylor rule. Moreover, trend inflation enlarges the indeterminacy region in the parameter … cannot disregard average inflation in both theoretical and empirical analysis. …

particularly focus on the implications for inflation dynamics. We will show how considering models with time-varying trend … inflation overcomes the initial difficulties of the New Keynesian Phillips Curve to match the empirical persistence of the time … series for inflation. Inflation is highly persistent, but much of that persistence is due to shifts in trend inflation. …

central banks target inflation at a rate of about 2 percent. Many economists have recently proposed even higher inflation … importance of appropriately accounting for a low, positive trend inflation rate for the conduct of monetary policy. We first … review empirical research on the evolution and dynamics of U.S. trend inflation, as well as some proposed new measures to …

model indexation regulates the sources of inflation persistence. When indexation is zero, the inflation gap is purely … forward- looking and inflation persistence depends only on the level of trend inflation, while full indexation makes the … inflation gap persistent and it eliminates the effects of trend inflation. We show that in the former case the optimal policy is …

-run relationship between inflation and output is positive in the Rotemberg model and negative in the Calvo model. ii) The log … inflation enlarges the determinacy region in the Rotemberg model, while it shrinks the determinacy region in the Calvo model. iv …) The responses of output and inflation to a positive technology shock are amplified by trend inflation in Calvo, while they …

Even low levels of trend inflation substantially affect the dynamics of a basic new Keynesian DSGE model when monetary … policy is conducted by a contemporaneous Taylor rule. Positive trend inflation shrinks the determinacy region. Neither the … Taylor principle, which requires the inflation coefficient to be greater than one, nor the generalized Taylor principle …

Since 2000 U.S. inflation has remained both below target and silent to domestic slack and monetary interventions. A … inflation. The trend analysis shows that, starting from the '90s, despite very well-anchored expectations, slow-moving imported … "cost-push" factors induced deflationary pressure keeping trend inflation below target. The cycle block provides evidence in …

Most macroeconomic models for monetary policy analysis are approximated around a zero-inflation steady state, but most … central banks target inflation at a rate of about 2 percent.
