摘要

生产率冲击的标准国际传导机制预测了贸易和商业周期同步之间的弱内生联系:一个被称为贸易运动难题的问题。我们对这一难题进行了基础分析，指出了三种自然的候选解决方案:(i)金融市场摩擦，(ii)格林伍德-赫考维茨-霍夫曼偏好，以及(iii)短期低但长期高的动态贸易弹性。我们展示了这些候选决议的影响分析和定量评估他们。我们发现，虽然(i)和(ii)缺乏数据，但(iii)对解决这个难题大有帮助。(凝胶e32, f14, f44)

The Trade-Comovement Puzzle

Standard international transmission mechanism of productivity shocks predicts a weak endogenous linkage between trade and business cycle synchronization: a problem known as the trade-comovement puzzle. We provide the foundational analysis of the puzzle, pointing to three natural candidate resolutions: (i) financial market frictions, (ii) Greenwood-Hercowitz-Huffman preferences, and (iii) dynamic trade elasticity that is low in the short run but high in the long run. We show the effects of each of these candidate resolutions analytically and evaluate them quantitatively. We find that while (i) and (ii) fall short of the data, (iii) goes a long way toward resolving the puzzle. (JEL E32, F14, F44)

期刊介绍： American Economic Journal: Macroeconomics focuses on studies of aggregate fluctuations and growth, and the role of policy in that context. Such studies often borrow from and interact with research in other fields, such as monetary theory, industrial organization, finance, labor economics, political economy, public finance, international economics, and development economics. To the extent that they make a contribution to macroeconomics, papers in these fields are also welcome.
