1 Does Inflaion Targeing Anchor Long-Run Inflaion Expecaions? Evidence from Long-Term Bond Yields in he Unied Saes, Unied Kingdom, and Sweden Refe S. Gürkaynak, Andrew T. Levin, and Eric T. Swanson Bilken Universiy, Federal Reserve Board, and Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco
2 Summary Long-erm ineres raes in he U.S. move a grea deal - no jus uncondiionally, bu condiionally (in response o economic news) This behavior is inconsisen wih sandard macroeconomic models in which he seady sae is consan over ime and known by all agens Long-erm ineres raes in he U.K. and Sweden (boh inflaion argeers) generally do no respond o economic news - bu U.K. behaves similar o U.S. prior o Bank of England gaining independence from Treasury/Parliamen in All of our empirical evidence can be explained by changes in long-erm inflaion expecaions in he U.S. (and greaer anchoring in U.K., Sweden)
3 Ouline of Talk Review basic ideas from Gurkaynak, Sack, Swanson (25):. Macro Model Implicaions a. seady sae b. excess sensiiviy of long-erm ineres raes 2. Empirical Mehodology a. forward raes b. macroeconomic, moneary policy surprises This paper:. Compare U.S., U.K., Sweden a. compare inflaion argeers (U.K. pos-998, Sweden) o non-inflaion argeers (U.S., U.K. pre-997) 2. Compare sensiiviy of nominal raes, real raes, inflaion compensaion
