520 | 3 |a“The link between inflation and the output gap is key to the conduct of monetary policy in many central banks. However, the output gap is unobservable and highly uncertain. This paper examines whether output gaps, measured in real time, help improve forecasts of inflation when compared with simple models including only lags of inflation. Our paper makes three key contributions: it uses a novel database that enables the construction of real-time output gap estimates based on various models, including models incorporating a large number of variables as inputs; it assesses the ability of different measures of output gap and labour gap, as well as combinations of output gaps, to improve forecasts of inflation; and it is the first paper using real-time data to analyze the usefulness of output gaps to forecast Canada’s new core CPI measures"--Non-technical summary, p. 2. |
