This paper examines the relation between variations in perceived inflation uncertainty and bond premia. Using the … average individual uncertainty about inflation forecasts since 1968. We show that this ex-ante measure of inflation … uncertainty differs importantly from measures of disagreement regarding inflation forecasts and other proxies, such as model …

We develop a non-linear forecast combination rule based on copulas that incorporate the dynamic interaction between individual predictors. This approach is optimal in the sense that the resulting combined forecast produces the highest discriminatory power as measured by the receiver operating...

We develop a parsimonious bivariate model of inflation and unemployment that allows for persistent variation in trend … inflation and in the non-accelerating inflation rate of unemployment. The model, which consists of five unobserved components … inflation and unemployment. The implied backwards-looking Phillips curve has a time-varying slope that is steeper in the 1970s …

Inflation rates are highly persistent and extremely difficult to predict. Most statistical predictions based on … inflation forecasting that does not specify or estimate any predictive regressions, but rather starts by estimating a … contemporaneous relation between inflation rate and a short-term interest rate, and then relies on the forward interest rate curve to …

Forecasting inflation is an important and challenging task. In this paper we assume that the core inflation components … evolve as a multivariate local level process.
