The data show large and persistent deviations of real exchange rates from purchasing power parity. Recent work has shown that to a large extent these movements are driven by deviations from the law of one price for traded goods. In the data, real and nominal exchange rates are about 6 times as...

theory for persistence have some modest support: in the data, the stickier is the price of a good the more persistent is its … real exchange rate, but the theory predicts much more variation in persistence than is in the data. The predictions of the … theory for volatiity fare less well: in the data, the stickier is the price of a good the smaller is its conditional variance …
