Does uncertainty amplify the inflation pass-through of gasoline price shocks?
We study how U.S. inflation uncertainty responds to gasoline price shocks and how strongly the endogenous response of uncertainty influences the inflationary effects of these shocks. Using a VAR with stochastic volatility, which allows for delayed endogenous responses of volatility to level shocks, we find that uncertainty associated with U.S. inflation rises in response to adverse gasoline price shocks. A counterfactual exercise shows that gasoline price shocks help explain inflation uncertainty, but the feedback from inflation uncertainty to inflation is quantitatively negligible.
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.
