Sources of differential relative price variability: An examination of the microfoundations of inflation
The central issue dividing neoclassical and Keynesian economists is how markets react to perturbations to longrun equilibria. The standard resolution of this controversy is that neoclassical responses are appropriate to competitive markets, while Keynesian responses better describe oligopolistic …

Does the Relative Price of Non-Traded Goods Contribute to the Short-Term Volatility in the U.S./Canada Real Exchange Rate? A Stochastic Coefficient Estimation Approach
… the time period 1971 through 1999 is due to the relative price of non-traded goods to traded goods. The model specification used in this study provides estimates of the sensitivity of movements in the U.S./Canada real exchange rate to movements in both the relative price of traded goods and the …

Incorporating Food-away-from-Home into the Thrifty Food Plan
… study, FLEX, uses similar sets of datasets on prices, nutrition and average consumption pattern as those used in the TFP model. The 2001-2002 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) data is used to generate average consumption and nutrient profiles. The relative price ratio of …

Import and export demand functions and the Orcutt Hypothesis: evidence from South Africa
… embarked on addressing this phenomenon have used price and income elasticities as primary determinants of foreign trade, the present study uses the Orcutt hypothesis to investigate whether South Africa’s trade flows respond to exchange rate changes faster than they respond to relative price …

Textile and apparel imports from the People's Republic of China: an examination of market share and price elasticity
… second objective was to investigate the role of price in relation to import market share. The market share of consumption rather than market share of imports was examined in the final objective. Data for these analyses were obtained from the Textile Information Management System database (TIMS), …

Essays in asset pricing and international finance
… are consistent with the adjustment of the relative price of tradable to non-tradable goods, due to endowment shocks. I find firms that produce tradable goods have asset returns and earnings that are twice as cyclical as firms that produce non-tradable goods. A tradable minus nontradable …

Retail prices and the real exchange rate
This paper uses daily frequency relative prices gathered from online retailers for a basket of countries to investigate the Purchasing Power Parity relationship, exchange rate pass-throughs and the effect of price shocks on nominal exchange rates. We fit a structural VAR model on exchange rate and …

A reinforcement learning algorithm for efficient dynamic trading execution in the presence of signals
