We estimate a time-varying parameter VAR (TVP-VAR) with stochastic volatility using US data to study the effects of uncertainty shocks on inflation. We find the response of inflation to …

Based on SVAR models identified by sign restrictions, we estimate the macroeconomic effects of financial and uncertainty shocks in the euro area and the US, paying particular …
We propose a generalization of the rational expectations framework to allow for temporarily unstable paths. Our approach introduces multiplicative sunspot shocks and it yields drifting …
Empirical questions such as whether the Phillips curve or the Okun's law is stable can often be framed as a model comparison—eg, comparing a vector autoregression (VAR) in which …

How do short‐and long‐term interest rates respond to a jump in financial uncertainty? We address this question by conducting a local projections analysis with US monthly data …
This paper investigates the potentials of the bootstrap as a tool for inference on the parameters of macroeconometric models which admit a state space representation. We …
We employ real-time data available to the US monetary policy makers to estimate a Taylor rule augmented with a measure of financial uncertainty over the period 1969–2008. We find …

This article investigates the forecasting performance of a new small-scale dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) model. To this end, this article first conducts a Monte …

Cholesky-VAR impulse responses estimated with post-1984 US data predict modest macroeconomic reactions to monetary policy shocks. We interpret this evidence by …
