Technology-driven forecasts, the Phillips curve, and monetary policy-making
Article Abstract:
US monetary policy-making uses forecasts based on the shorter-run timespan of business cycles wherein the relationship between inflation rate and unemployment is negative and nonlinear. The forecasts, however, may be influenced by technology forecasts or long-term cycles with negative relationships. This can be avoided by adopting a model that considers both short- and long-term relationships and explains the effects of longer-run timespan on monetary policy-making.
