Revision |
There is an update to the paper (joint work with William Branch) on multiple equilibria featuring both Ricardian and non-Ricardian outcomes impact inflation dynamics. Bayesian model estimates suggest: 1970’s and 2021-22 are periods of non-Ricardian beliefs and inflation. Disinflation is a self-fulfilling and temporary escape from a non-Ricardian belief equilibrium. |
