The "price puzzle" reconsidered

Article Abstract:

The empirical effects of United States monetary policy are studied using the structural vector autoregressive (SVAR). Most of these models produce a "price puzzle." A price puzzle refers to a rise in the aggregate price level in response to a contractionary innovation to monetary policy excluding commodity prices. Though conventional wisdom supports the fact that commodity prices resolve the price puzzle as they contain information for predicting the inflation, evidence of a sample period revealed that many indicators including commodity prices couldn't resolve the price puzzle.
