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. Equipped with New Keynesian theory and estimated SVAR models, we decompose the …

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...

A number of studies have found that news shocks account for a large part of the aggregate fl uctuations of the main macroeconomic variables.We show that when taking rational expectations into consideration there is a limit on the size of the variance of the news shocks,which has not been...
