Abstract
The persistent supply chain bottlenecks and monetary policy substantially influence energy prices; however, these factors affect energy prices asymmetrically. Therefore, this study determines the time varying and asymmetric influence of monetary policy shocks (MPS) and supply chain shocks on energy prices in the US. This study adopts a nonlinear autoregressive distributed lag and wavelet coherence models using the monthly data from 1998 to 2021 in empirical investigation. The long-run findings reveal that a positive shock in supply chain pressure stimulates energy prices, while a negative shock in supply chain pressure reduces energy prices. Besides, the positive monetary policy shock increases energy prices, and negative shock has insignificant effects on energy prices in the long run. The short-run estimates exhibit that positive supply chain pressure and monetary policy shocks do not impact energy prices. However, negative supply chain shocks (monetary policy shocks) increases (decreases) energy prices in the short run. Moreover, the time-varying wavelet coherence approach affirms a strong coherence between MPS, supply chian pressure, and energy prices, while the impacts differ at variant frequency and time domains. Overall, the asymmetric and time-frequency findings provide valuable policies to the US policymakers.
期刊介绍:
Energy Economics is a field journal that focuses on energy economics and energy finance. It covers various themes including the exploitation, conversion, and use of energy, markets for energy commodities and derivatives, regulation and taxation, forecasting, environment and climate, international trade, development, and monetary policy. The journal welcomes contributions that utilize diverse methods such as experiments, surveys, econometrics, decomposition, simulation models, equilibrium models, optimization models, and analytical models. It publishes a combination of papers employing different methods to explore a wide range of topics. The journal's replication policy encourages the submission of replication studies, wherein researchers reproduce and extend the key results of original studies while explaining any differences. Energy Economics is indexed and abstracted in several databases including Environmental Abstracts, Fuel and Energy Abstracts, Social Sciences Citation Index, GEOBASE, Social & Behavioral Sciences, Journal of Economic Literature, INSPEC, and more.
