Thornton, SAJE 2008 on money, output and inflation... both corroborate monetary disequilibrium as important Food prices and inflation Loening, Durevall and Birru (2009) slide 7

We know very little about short-run dynamics, but don t have enough data to take a systems approach slide 8

16 [3] summarizing Money growth matters both in the long run and in the short run. Agricultural supply shocks transmit strongly to food prices and overall inflation; less so to non-food but no clear evidence of adverse intersectoral impact on non-food demand Inflation inertia is considerably stronger on the food side. A long-run equilibrium real exchange rate relationship *may* help drive inflation but relative PPP fails. The depreciation puzzle is less apparent, and there is some evidence of a conventional long-run pass-through. The short-run impact is zero for headline and food, and negative for non-food. slide 15
17 [4] research directions Improve these specifications esp the long-run elements. Need much better measure of agricultural supply shocks Quarterly or monthly equilibrium real exchange rate model Monthly money demand model Fuel price shocks Look at commodity-level prices to understand open-economy impacts and work with NBS to resolve a price-level puzzle Develop low-order 2-sector DSGE models to deal with simultaneity and inter-sectoral transmission of shocks slide 16
