In this paper we investigate dynamics of global inflation and short-run inflation expectations. We estimate a global … inflationary pressure that could drive up inflation expectations: domestic aggregate demand and supply shocks as well as a global … increase in oil price inflation. Our results indicate that inflation expectations tend to increase as inflation accelerates …
