inflation should differ between inflation and deflation episodes, using data for Japan and Hong Kong. We use a random … during both the inflation and deflation periods, and the parameter on the second moment changes sign in the deflation period …

Using frequency domain techniques to separate short and long run dynamics and decomposing inflation into its common and … idiosyncratic components, we study the regime dependence of the inflation-RPV relation in Argentina and the USA. Under High … inflation, strong long-run comovement between RPV and Inflation is found for both economies, that extends to the short run …

asymmetry of sectoral relative-price changes and the aggregate inflation rate. This correlation is widely interpreted as … evidence that short-run inflation is determined by supply-side factors; however, we study whether, in addition to the inflation …, that the positive and significant effect of relative-price change asymmetries on inflation is not robust with respect to …

inflation should differ between inflation and deflation episodes, using data for Japan and Hong Kong. We use a random … during both the inflation and deflation periods, and the parameter on the second moment changes sign in the deflation period …

inflation should differ between inflation and deflation episodes, using data for Japan and Hong Kong. We use a random cross … both the inflation and deflation periods, and the parameter on the second moment changes sign in the deflation period, as … the theory predicts. Keywords: inflation, deflation, menu costs, Hong Kong, Japan. …

aggregate inflation and the higher-order moments of the distribution of relative price changes. Our empirical findings confirm … explanatory variable for the inflation rate. Further, the skewness measure also helps to explain shifts in the Phillips curve …

The objective of this research paper is to examine the relationship between relative price variability and inflation by … demonstrated that there is a probable relationship between inflation (DPt) and both un-weighted measures of price variability (VPt …
