Our result stems from the Ramsey rule: rising old-age longevity makes capital less responsive to tax hikes. We reconcile our results with the existing literature.

Empirical studies utilizing traditional SVAR models consistently report expansionary effects on output and prices while considering only a small number of variables. This paper is the first to present both narrative and empirical evidence indicating that these models are susceptible to policy foresight, as central banks frequently announce their unconventional policies months in advance. To address policy foresight, we estimate a Bayesian FAVAR model with an extended set of information for the Euro Area. Consistent with the existing literature, we find that an unconventional monetary policy shock boosts economic activity by increasing industrial production and reducing the unemployment rate. Notably, our estimated effects are both larger and more persistent compared to previous findings. Furthermore, the shock decreases interest rates, interest rate spreads, and government bond yields, leading to an improvement in financial conditions. In a noteworthy departure from previous research, we find significant uncertainty regarding the impacts on consumer and producer prices, highlighting the need for further research.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48314,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Economic Dynamics & Control","volume":"164 ","pages":"Article 104882"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-05-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141138435","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We connect this behavior to the concept of constant-gain learning (CGL) in macroeconomics. Our approach incorporates both heterogeneity in the life cycle via the perpetual youth model and learning from experience (LfE) into a linear expectations model where agents are born and die with some probability every period. For LfE, agents employ a decreasing-gain learning (DGL) model using data only from their own lifetimes. While agents are using DGL individually, we show that in the aggregate, expectations follow an approach related to CGL, where the gain is now tied to the probabilities of birth and death. We provide a precise characterization of the relationship between CGL and our model of perpetual youth learning (PYL) and show that PYL can well approximate CGL while pinning down the gain parameter with demographic data. Calibrating the model to U.S. demographics leads to gain parameters similar to those found in the literature. Further, variation in birth and death rates across countries and time periods can help explain the empirical time-variation in gains. Finally, we show that our approach is robust to alternative ways of modeling individual agent learning.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48314,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Economic Dynamics & Control","volume":"164 ","pages":"Article 104881"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-05-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0165188924000733/pdfft?md5=c9a7f95579abcba44585359e061a2de9&pid=1-s2.0-S0165188924000733-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141090039","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This uncertainty effect leads to lower innovation and adoption rates at the market equilibrium, resulting in inefficiently slow innovation and diffusion processes compared to the social optimum.
