This paper uses disaggregate inflation data spanning all of consumption to examine: (i) the persistence of disaggregate … inflation relative to aggregate infation; (ii) the distribution of persistence across consumption sectors; and (iii) whether … persistence has changed. Assuming mean inflation to be unchanged within samples, the average persistence of disaggregate inflation …

Whittle estimation method, the research examines the longmemory properties of headline inflation through monthly data from … January 1996 to January 2023. The study expands upon existing knowledge of inflation persistence by exploring its changes and … the various patterns of inflation persistence in Europe.

Inflation dynamics have been difficult to explain over the last decade. This paper explores if a more comprehensive … treatment of globalization can help. CPI inflation has become more synchronized around the world since the 2008 crisis, but core … and wage inflation have become less synchronized.

We estimate an empirical model of inflation that exploits a Phillips curve relationship between a measure of … unemployment and a subaggregate measure of inflation (services). We generate an aggregate inflation forecast from forecasts of the … statistics for models that exploit relationships between services inflation and the unemployment rate. In addition, models of …

In this paper we model monthly UK inflation and find that there is some small but significant autocorrelation …, particularly at 12 months. We find that this autocorrelation in monthly inflation leads to significant persistence in the headline … annual inflation figure. A one-off shock to monthly inflation will have an effect on the headline figure equal to 10% of the …
