Oil Price Shocks and Labor Market Fluctuations

Ordóñez Monfort, Javier - 2010

We examine the impact of real oil price shocks on labor market flows in the U.S. We first use smooth transition regression (STR) models to investigate to what extent oil prices can be considered as a driving force of labor market fluctuations. Then we develop and calibrate a modified version of...

Are the Job Flow Responses to Oil Price Shocks Asymmetric?

Malikov, Emir - 2015

This paper investigates the dynamic responses of employment flows to oil price shocks for the U.S. Manufacturing sector in the post-1973 period. Using the latest available data and state-of-the-art econometric methods of estimation and inference, I formally test for asymmetries in responses of...

The Effects of Oil Price Shocks on Job Reallocation

Herrera, Ana Maria - 2012

This paper investigates the impact of oil price innovations on job creation and job destruction in U.S. manufacturing. We estimate a simultaneous equation model that nests symmetric and asymmetric responses of job flows to oil price shocks. We first explore whether the responses of job creation...

Understanding the Large Negative Impact of Oil Shocks

Wen, Yi - 2014

This paper offers a plausible explanation for the close link between oil prices and aggregate macroeconomic performance in the 1970s. Although this link has been well documented in the empirical literature, standard economic models are not able to replicate this link when actual oil prices are...

The microeconomics of macroeconomic asymmetric sectoral evidence

Korenok, Oleg (contributor); … - 2004 - [Elektronische Ressource]

There is now considerable evidence that business cycle variation in output and employment in the U.S. diÞers in expansions and contractions. We present nonparametric evidence that asymmetries are strongest in durable goods manufacturing. In a Markov switching framework, we find two leading...

Investigating the U.S. oil-macroeconomy nexus using rolling impulse responses

Gronwald, Marc - 2009

This paper is concerned with the apparent change in the U.S. oil price-macroeconomy relationship. It is investigated to what extent this change can be accounted for by the large oil price surges witnessed in the 1970s. The innovative approach of rolling impulse responses is applied and both the...

The role of oil price shocks in causing U.S. recessions

Kilian, Lutz; Vigfusson, Robert J. - 2016

Although oil price shocks have long been viewed as one of the leading candidates for explaining U.S. recessions, surprisingly little is known about the extent to which oil price shocks explain recessions. We provide a formal analysis of this question with special attention to the possible role...
