Other Panel Results; ReferencesThis paper assesses the role of international commodity prices, cyclical fluctuations, and convergence in driving inflation in 18 European emerging economies. Country specific VARs and panel estimates indicate that international commodity price shocks have a significant impact on domestic inflation, but the inflation response is asymmetric for positive and negative shocks. Cyclical fluctuations explain a relative small share of inflation variability, and the inflation response is asymmetric during upturns and downturns. Price convergence is estimated to add nearly 3 percentage points to headline inflation, for the average country whose price level is about 50 percent relative to the EU-15 average.IMF Working Papers; Working Paper ;No. 2009/041Primary commoditiesPricesEuropeInflation (Finance)EuropeInflationimfMacroeconomicsimf'Panel Data ModelsimfSpatio-temporal Models'imfTime-Series ModelsimfDynamic Quantile RegressionsimfDynamic Treatment Effect ModelsimfDiffusion ProcessesimfState Space ModelsimfPrice LevelimfDeflationimfAgriculture: Aggregate Supply and Demand AnalysisimfPricesimfEnergy: Demand and SupplyimfCommodity MarketsimfFood pricesimfCommodity price shocksimfFuel pricesimfOil pricesimfUkraineimfPrimary commoditiesPricesInflation (Finance)InflationMacroeconomics'Panel Data ModelsSpatio-temporal Models'Time-Series ModelsDynamic Quantile RegressionsDynamic Treatment Effect ModelsDiffusion ProcessesState Space ModelsPrice LevelDeflationAgriculture: Aggregate Supply and Demand AnalysisPricesEnergy: Demand and SupplyCommodity MarketsFood pricesCommodity price shocksFuel pricesOil prices338.278Zoli Edda1111469DcWaIMFBOOK9910825900903321Commodity Price Volatility, Cyclical Fluctuations, and Convergence4033681UNINA
