Empirical study of causality between inflation, inflation uncertainty and other macroeconomicy quantities. Additionally, the issue of how to measure the unobservable inflation uncertainty is addressed.

Although survey-based point predictions have been found to outperform successful forecasting models, corresponding variance forecasts are frequently diagnosed as heavily distorted. Forecasters who report inconspicuously low ex-ante variances often produce squared forecast errors that are much...

It has been recently documented that survey-based point predictions outperform even the most successful forecasting models. However, corresponding variance forecasts are frequently diagnosed as being heavily distorted. Forecasters who report inconspicuously low ex-ante variances often produce...
