We document the presence of both small and large price changes in individual price records from the CPI in France and the US. After correcting for measurement error and cross-section heterogeneity, the size-distribution of price changes has a positive excess kurtosis. We propose an analytical...

analytically the impulse response of aggregate prices and output to a monetary shock. The cumulative response of output to a … monetary shock is the product of three terms: the steady state standard deviation of price changes, the average time elapsed … between price changes, and a function of both the number of products and the size of the monetary shock. The size of the …

We present a monetary model in the presence of segmented asset markets that implies a persistent fall in interest rates after a once and for all increase in liquidity. The gradual propagation mechanism produced by our model is novel in the literature. We provide an analytical characterization of...

We propose an analytical method to analyze the propagation of a once-and-for-all shock in a broad class of sticky price … shock (any displacement of the invariant distribution). We present several applications and discuss extensions …

We document cash management patterns for households that are at odds with the predictions of deterministic inventory models that abstract from precautionary motives. We extend the Baumol-Tobin cash inventory model to a dynamic environment that allows for the possibility of withdrawing cash at...
