Longitudinal inflation asymmetry

Author

  • Randal Verbrugge

Abstract

Using an assymetry test which has high power and is not dominated by outliers, a longitudinal asymmetry is detected in most of the disaggregated price series investigated. This finding is intriguing, as neither money nor output growth is asymmetric.
