This paper looks at the implications of heterogeneous beliefs for inflation dynamics. Following a monetary policy shock …, inflation peaks after output, is inertial, and can be characterized by a Hybrid Phillips Curve. It presents a novel channel … through which systematic monetary policy can affect the degree of inflation persistence. It does so by altering the effective …

An apparent disconnect has taken place between inflation and economic activity in the US over the last 25 years, with … price inflation remaining remarkably stable in spite of large fluctuations in the output gap and other measures of economic … implications for demand and supply curve slopes.

Standard sticky information pricing models successfully capture the sluggish movement of aggregate prices in response to monetary policy shocks but fail at matching the magnitude and frequency of price changes at the micro level. This paper shows that in a setting where firms choose when to...

This paper surveys the research in the past decade on imperfect information models of aggregate supply and the Phillips curve. This new work has emphasized that information is dispersed and disseminates slowly across a population of agents who strategically interact in their use of information....

In this paper, using a benchmark Bayesian Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (Bayesian DSGE) model (Smets-Wouters Model) with Taylor's rule and a modified Smets-Wouters model with a money growth rule, we have simulated China's monetary policy transmission process and the roles of monetary...

The aim of this work is to compare and contrast different ways of modeling financial shocks and financial intermediaries in the Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium models (DSGE models) and to discuss the empirical evidence on the importance of modeling financial sector and financial shocks in...

The … magnitude of private sector learning has been calibrated to match the volatility of US inflation expectations at long horizons …. Given such illustrative calibrations, we find that the costs of maintaining a given inflation volatility under weak …
