【主題】Two Illustrations of the Quantity Theory of Money: Breakdowns and Revivals (written by Thomas J. Sargent and Paolo Surico, American Economic Review, 2011)

【摘要】By extending his data, we document the instability of two low-frequency regression coefficients, namely, of inflation on money growth and an interest rate on money growth, respectively, that Lucas (1980) used to express two empirical propositions representing the quantity theory of money. We impute the differences in these regression coefficients to differences in monetary policies across periods. Estimation of a DSGE model over a subsample approximating Lucas’s yields parameters that imply values of the two long-run regression coefficients that confirm Lucas’s results for his particular sample period. But perturbing parameters of the monetary policy rule away from values estimated over Lucas’s subsample alters the population values of the two regression coefficients in ways that reproduce the pattern of instability observed over our longer sample.
