This paper studies the importance of money for inflation in the euro area. An inflation equation is derived from a … small model that combines the supply and demand for money with a Phillips curve and the assumption that inflation … expectations develop adaptively. The model's solution attributes an impact on inflation not to actual money growth but to its core …

We address this question by examining the conditional dynamics of inflation and output growth in response to markup … shocks for 14 industrialized countries. Markup shocks create a trade-off between output gap and inflation stabilization … purposes, and the theory predicts that conditional on such shocks output growth should be more volatile than inflation in …

Inflation expectations play a key role in determining future economic outcomes. The associated uncertainty provides a … direct gauge of how well-anchored the inflation expectations are.
