Wealth Effects, Price Markups, and the Neo-Fisherian Hypothesis
SSRN Electronic Journal
2022
Abstract
By introducing Jaimovich-Rebelo (JR) consumption-labor non-separable preferences into an otherwise standard New Keynesian model, we show that the occurrence of positive co-movement between inflation and the nominal interest rate conditional on a nominal shock - the so-called neo-Fisherian hypothesis - depends on the extent of wealth effects in households’ labor supply decisions.Neo-Fisherianism appears more prominent in economic environments with i) weaker wealth effects on labor supply (in particular for Greenwood-Hercowitz-Huffmann preferences where wealth effects are absent), and ii) smaller price-to-wage markups (for which the steady state is less distorted). The stabilizing properties of Taylor rules under JR preferences are scrutinized
