postwar US macroeconomic data can be explained as the outcome of passive monetary policy, indeterminacy, and sunspot … windows and allowing the parameters to fall both in the determinacy and indeterminacy regions. The estimates reveal large … the sample. The results confirm that macroeconomic data in the early windows are better explained by indeterminacy, while …

In contrast, when the full employment country is sufficiently big, local indeterminacy, and … fluctuations (associated with local indeterminacy and bifurcations) are possible with smaller externalities, whatever the relative …

We consider the stability under adaptive learning of the complete set of solutions to the model when . In addition to the fundamentals solution, the literature describes both finite-state Markov sunspot solutions, satisfying a resonant frequency condition, and autoregressive solutions depending...

We develop a monetary model with flexible supply of labor, cash in advance constraints and government spending financed by seignorage. This model has two regimes. One regime is conventional with two steady states. The other regime has a unique steady state which can be determinate or...

We find that capital adjustment costs of any size preclude stable sunspots for every … size are considered, a necessary condition for the existence of stable sunspots is an upward- sloping labor demand curve in … the standard result that when we abstract from capital adjustment costs, stable sunspots occur in the two-sector model for …

I develop and analyze a monetary model with liquid equity. Equity is a claim on the profits of firms acting as sellers in the search-and-matching market. Buyers in that market devote search to obtain matches with firms, and use the equity to relax a liquidity constraint. The dual nature of...

A common assumption in macroeconomics is that energy prices are determined in a world-wide, rather frictionless market. This no longer seems an adequate description for the situation that much of Europe currently faces. Rather, one reading is that shortages exist in the quantity of energy...

This paper develops a growth model with land, housing services, and other goods that is capable of explaining a substantial portion of the movements in housing prices over the past forty years. Under certainty, the model exhibits a balanced aggregate growth, but with underlying sectoral change....

A two-sector real business cycle model, estimated with postwar U.S. data, identifies shocks to the levels and growth rates of total factor productivity in distinct consumption- and investmentgoods- producing technologies. This model attributes most of the productivity slowdown of the 1970s to...
