1 00:00:16,278 --> 00:00:21,399 today we're going to talk about um 2 00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:24,320 perhaps the most important model in this 3 00:00:21,399 --> 00:00:26,919 class the ISL MPC model which puts 4 00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:30,518 together all that we have done up to now 5 00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:32,559 but before we do that uh let's talk a 6 00:00:30,518 --> 00:00:36,799 little bit about the current 7 00:00:32,558 --> 00:00:36,799 events uh who knows what that 8 00:00:37,119 --> 00:00:42,000 is is this a exam week or 9 00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:49,640 what Silicon Valley Bank exactly no so 10 00:00:46,719 --> 00:00:54,799 Silicon Valley Bank the 16th Bank in 11 00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:57,879 size asset size in the US ER went 12 00:00:54,799 --> 00:01:01,759 essentially under last Friday was shut 13 00:00:57,878 --> 00:01:04,280 down by the FD last last 14 00:01:01,759 --> 00:01:09,079 Friday so that's the decline in in the 15 00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:11,320 stock value uh during Thursday Friday 16 00:01:09,079 --> 00:01:14,560 and uh and then it was shut down and you 17 00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:17,438 see that it's not being traded anymore 18 00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:19,640 um so that's a pretty significant event 19 00:01:17,438 --> 00:01:23,279 and the the weekend was pretty stressful 20 00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:27,040 for anyone involved in in in this event 21 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:30,560 the treasury the FDIC the Federal 22 00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:32,520 Reserve and so on um 23 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:34,759 it's first it was a large I mean it's 24 00:01:32,519 --> 00:01:38,840 not one of the big systemic Banks if you 25 00:01:34,759 --> 00:01:41,040 will it's not JP Morgan City Bank of 26 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:42,759 America one of those Banks which are 27 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:45,600 regulated even differently from these 28 00:01:42,759 --> 00:01:48,519 Banks but still is a pretty large Bank 29 00:01:45,599 --> 00:01:51,438 you see by asset size $29 30 00:01:48,519 --> 00:01:53,359 billion H which is you know comparable 31 00:01:51,438 --> 00:01:55,039 to Washington Mutual which was the 32 00:01:53,359 --> 00:01:57,519 largest bank that went under during the 33 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:59,920 global financial crisis Great Recession 34 00:01:57,519 --> 00:02:03,078 at that time there were lots of other 35 00:01:59,920 --> 00:02:05,399 banks that went under H but the largest 36 00:02:03,078 --> 00:02:06,798 was comparable to this one and in fact 37 00:02:05,399 --> 00:02:08,840 all the things that were done over the 38 00:02:06,799 --> 00:02:10,239 weekend and that still being done today 39 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:14,159 is to prevent something like this 40 00:02:10,239 --> 00:02:15,120 happening here as well okay and so it 41 00:02:14,159 --> 00:02:18,359 was 42 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:21,319 a a pretty significant event now what 43 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:25,360 happened to Silicon Valley 44 00:02:21,318 --> 00:02:28,280 Bank um well in the the immediate cause 45 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:30,440 of of of of the failure is what always 46 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:33,598 kills a bank which is a r 47 00:02:30,439 --> 00:02:35,318 by this depositors okay and what you see 48 00:02:33,598 --> 00:02:38,199 here is is the following this is this 49 00:02:35,318 --> 00:02:39,958 this Bank actually grew enormously over 50 00:02:38,199 --> 00:02:43,560 the last two three years essentially 51 00:02:39,959 --> 00:02:46,878 doubl its asset size 52 00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:48,840 um but it began to have sort of outflow 53 00:02:46,878 --> 00:02:51,719 net outflows of 54 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:54,519 deposits during 2022 and the reason for 55 00:02:51,719 --> 00:02:57,199 that is not because the business was 56 00:02:54,519 --> 00:02:59,120 doing poorly anything it was simply 57 00:02:57,199 --> 00:03:02,039 because this is a bank that service 58 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:04,400 primarily of the high the tech sector 59 00:03:02,039 --> 00:03:06,878 startups companies and things like that 60 00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:09,039 and those sectors were having hard time 61 00:03:06,878 --> 00:03:11,359 raising new capital in an environment 62 00:03:09,039 --> 00:03:14,280 that was not very friendly towards the 63 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:16,720 tech sector so so so they began to 64 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:21,759 withdraw on their deposits and and 65 00:03:16,719 --> 00:03:23,280 that's what led to these flows here now 66 00:03:21,759 --> 00:03:26,359 eventually 67 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:29,919 ER because of this and and something 68 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:32,959 I'll explain in a few minutes ER 69 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:37,238 this the they decided svb Bank decided 70 00:03:32,959 --> 00:03:40,199 to issue new Equity ER issue new 71 00:03:37,239 --> 00:03:42,959 Equity to cover certain losses they had 72 00:03:40,199 --> 00:03:45,119 incurrent and today in the mod of social 73 00:03:42,959 --> 00:03:46,840 in the world of social media that 74 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:49,200 immediately led to sort of massive 75 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:51,360 spread that this bank was in trouble and 76 00:03:49,199 --> 00:03:53,759 then you saw enormous attempts to 77 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:55,319 withdraw deposits now not all of these 78 00:03:53,759 --> 00:03:58,039 these were fulfilled but there was a 79 00:03:55,318 --> 00:04:01,238 massive pressure to withdraw deposits 80 00:03:58,039 --> 00:04:02,639 and and and and that's the end always 81 00:04:01,239 --> 00:04:05,480 for a bank that doesn't find an 82 00:04:02,639 --> 00:04:07,958 alternative source of funding and often 83 00:04:05,479 --> 00:04:09,798 for withdrawals of that size the only 84 00:04:07,959 --> 00:04:12,000 alternative source of funding is either 85 00:04:09,799 --> 00:04:16,000 that some other bank buys you or that 86 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:16,000 the FED comes in and gives you a 87 00:04:16,079 --> 00:04:21,439 line anyway so what is the that was 88 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:24,479 immediate and it's always whenever you 89 00:04:21,439 --> 00:04:26,519 ask you hear about the bank run the 90 00:04:24,478 --> 00:04:29,560 immediate cost of the problem is a run 91 00:04:26,519 --> 00:04:33,799 from of the depositors from deposits in 92 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:36,759 that that bank now why did this happen 93 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:39,720 in this in this particular bank again I 94 00:04:36,759 --> 00:04:42,360 explain why is that you saw those small 95 00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:44,800 withdrawals of deposits but but what 96 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:47,000 happens to this to them is actually 97 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:49,319 there as I said before their deposits 98 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:52,879 grew very rapidly over the last two 99 00:04:49,319 --> 00:04:55,519 three years and then rather than being 100 00:04:52,879 --> 00:04:57,319 very risky lenders rather than investing 101 00:04:55,519 --> 00:04:59,399 you know sometimes when Banks grow very 102 00:04:57,319 --> 00:05:01,680 rapidly they do lots of crazy things you 103 00:04:59,399 --> 00:05:04,038 know they in they make lots of loans 104 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:06,000 without going doing the D diligent 105 00:05:04,038 --> 00:05:09,240 process and all that that's not what 106 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:11,279 they did they bought treasury bonds the 107 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:14,639 safest as as you can imagine they bought 108 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:16,839 10 year treasury bonds lots of them but 109 00:05:14,639 --> 00:05:18,840 they bought them at the wrong time they 110 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:21,918 bought them right before the hike in 111 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:24,519 interest rates that we began to see in 112 00:05:21,918 --> 00:05:25,799 2022 and we already looked at the 113 00:05:24,519 --> 00:05:28,439 relation between interest rates and 114 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:30,520 price of bonds well you have a 10-year 115 00:05:28,439 --> 00:05:32,160 bond and the interest starts going up 116 00:05:30,519 --> 00:05:35,680 the price of that Bond starts 117 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:38,280 declining now that is not is problematic 118 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:40,600 for a bank but not entirely the end of 119 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:42,599 the story because that means that the 120 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:44,560 the the market value of the bonds you're 121 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:47,199 holding among your assets starts 122 00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:48,560 declining but Banks do not need to 123 00:05:47,199 --> 00:05:51,240 recognize that 124 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:54,399 loss unless they sell the 125 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:56,079 bonds because the the the logic is that 126 00:05:54,399 --> 00:05:57,679 well if the guy just sits on the bond 127 00:05:56,079 --> 00:05:59,038 the bond hasn't really lost any value in 128 00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:00,519 the sense that it will get the same 129 00:05:59,038 --> 00:06:02,680 coupons that he was planning to get and 130 00:06:00,519 --> 00:06:03,879 so on this is us treasuries us 131 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,519 treasuries are not going to default in 132 00:06:03,879 --> 00:06:08,319 the coupons let's hope it's not going to 133 00:06:05,519 --> 00:06:10,799 happen in a few months from now but but 134 00:06:08,319 --> 00:06:14,319 typically they don't default on coupons 135 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:15,759 so so the logic the regul regulation is 136 00:06:14,319 --> 00:06:17,560 assigned in such a way perhaps is a 137 00:06:15,759 --> 00:06:20,080 failure I think there is a problem there 138 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:22,800 but that they don't need to 139 00:06:20,079 --> 00:06:25,839 recognize the losses unless they sell 140 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:27,079 the bonds so they look pretty healthy 141 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:28,918 because they had massive amount of 142 00:06:27,079 --> 00:06:30,719 Treasury bonds they did not need to 143 00:06:28,918 --> 00:06:34,079 recognize that 144 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:36,720 problem is that when this small W 145 00:06:34,079 --> 00:06:39,159 relatively small withdrawals start at 146 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:40,960 some point they needed to find a 147 00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:43,199 substitute for those funds they need to 148 00:06:40,959 --> 00:06:45,000 honor the deposits that that were being 149 00:06:43,199 --> 00:06:48,080 withdrawn and at that point they had to 150 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:49,598 sell assets and when they sold assets 151 00:06:48,079 --> 00:06:51,279 they made the loss because at that point 152 00:06:49,598 --> 00:06:53,240 you have to recognize the loss because 153 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:55,198 you're not going to hold the the bond 154 00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:57,160 until expiration and clip all the 155 00:06:55,199 --> 00:07:00,400 coupons that come from it so you have to 156 00:06:57,160 --> 00:07:03,560 recognize the loss that's a loss 157 00:07:00,399 --> 00:07:06,038 that led the CEO to announce that they 158 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:08,720 needed a fundraising to cover a $2.5 159 00:07:06,038 --> 00:07:14,038 billion hold they had as a result of the 160 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:16,680 losses okay now okay so now we have a we 161 00:07:14,038 --> 00:07:18,079 know why where the losses came from now 162 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:19,918 if you notice the losses are not that 163 00:07:18,079 --> 00:07:22,839 big I mean this is a bank with $200 164 00:07:19,918 --> 00:07:25,758 billion and and the losses were 165 00:07:22,839 --> 00:07:28,119 relatively small where is the other leg 166 00:07:25,759 --> 00:07:32,360 of the problem it's 167 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:33,598 here you know in in the US deposits are 168 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:35,879 ured up to 169 00:07:33,598 --> 00:07:37,560 $250,000 that means no matter what 170 00:07:35,879 --> 00:07:41,240 happens to the bank where you have the 171 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:43,598 money if that bank goes under and you 172 00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:45,720 have deposits for below $250,000 the 173 00:07:43,598 --> 00:07:48,800 FDIC comes and gives you a check okay so 174 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:51,120 there's no risk so if you have deposit 175 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:53,079 under $250,000 you don't need to worry 176 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:55,079 about this you may go you don't need to 177 00:07:53,079 --> 00:07:57,959 read the news about this bank 178 00:07:55,079 --> 00:08:00,198 because you will get your funds in fact 179 00:07:57,959 --> 00:08:03,000 when when the bank was shut down on 180 00:08:00,199 --> 00:08:05,520 Friday the FDIC announc immediately 181 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:08,000 every depositor under $250,000 can come 182 00:08:05,519 --> 00:08:10,959 on Monday and get his money okay so 183 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:12,478 there's no issue there and most banks 184 00:08:10,959 --> 00:08:14,198 have a large share of depositors that 185 00:08:12,478 --> 00:08:17,639 are small depositor that means they are 186 00:08:14,199 --> 00:08:20,319 covered by this Deposit Insurance 187 00:08:17,639 --> 00:08:21,960 mechanism which was designed precisely 188 00:08:20,319 --> 00:08:23,319 to prevent runs because if you don't 189 00:08:21,959 --> 00:08:25,120 need to worry about where you get your 190 00:08:23,319 --> 00:08:28,120 money know you don't need to run on the 191 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:29,639 bank the problem is that this bank was 192 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:33,000 very different in the composition of 193 00:08:29,639 --> 00:08:35,080 depositors he had primarily business 194 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:36,879 deposits meaning it was all these 195 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:38,599 startup companies and so on in the tech 196 00:08:36,879 --> 00:08:40,158 sector they had their their deposits 197 00:08:38,599 --> 00:08:41,519 there and those deposits were much 198 00:08:40,158 --> 00:08:43,399 larger than 199 00:08:41,519 --> 00:08:47,200 $250,000 if you 200 00:08:43,399 --> 00:08:49,240 see it's about I think it's close to 95% 201 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:52,759 of the deposits were not covered by the 202 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:54,120 insurance by the fdac insurance okay 203 00:08:52,759 --> 00:08:56,799 that means it's a very different 204 00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:58,200 calculation when you have a deposit 205 00:08:56,799 --> 00:08:59,559 that's not covered by insurance and then 206 00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:02,480 you start feeling that the bank Mak may 207 00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:05,039 go under what do you do you take your 208 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:07,680 money out you know put it some you send 209 00:09:05,039 --> 00:09:10,199 it to JP Morgan where there's no risk 210 00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:12,719 and wait until this thing is 211 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:14,399 resolved now in this case and that's 212 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:17,040 what typically happens in this case it 213 00:09:14,399 --> 00:09:18,600 happens even faster than normally why 214 00:09:17,039 --> 00:09:20,399 because many of the depositors the 215 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:24,399 business that were deposited in there 216 00:09:20,399 --> 00:09:27,159 were were a startups that were being 217 00:09:24,399 --> 00:09:29,759 seeded by some Venture Capital 218 00:09:27,159 --> 00:09:31,439 funds and Venture Capital funds as soon 219 00:09:29,759 --> 00:09:33,958 as they noticed that there was a problem 220 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:35,640 here began to call all the startups and 221 00:09:33,958 --> 00:09:37,838 tell him hey take that money out of 222 00:09:35,639 --> 00:09:40,480 there because you know they may run into 223 00:09:37,839 --> 00:09:42,680 travel so it was a venture capital world 224 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:45,200 that caused the Run 225 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:46,719 effectively and and and and and that's 226 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:49,600 what happened 227 00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:51,839 okay now so that's that's what happened 228 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:53,000 that's the reason for the run and and 229 00:09:51,839 --> 00:09:55,959 and 230 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:57,679 the and so there was a a problem the 231 00:09:55,958 --> 00:09:59,559 problem was not that big but but the 232 00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:01,559 problem is that the deposits were very 233 00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:03,319 un safe they were not covered and moving 234 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:05,679 deposits out is very easy I mean you 235 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:09,640 just you know you just wire your money 236 00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:11,599 to another bank so so so why wait there 237 00:10:09,639 --> 00:10:14,120 why risk it and that's that's what 238 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:16,040 happened it's called in economics 239 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:17,959 coordination failure when I mean if 240 00:10:16,039 --> 00:10:19,480 everyone freezes and say okay nobody 241 00:10:17,958 --> 00:10:22,599 takes the money out and so on this stuff 242 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:24,320 is when I pass then we're safe but but 243 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,920 but since we don't call each other and 244 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:27,959 we don't trust each other to really 245 00:10:25,919 --> 00:10:29,519 leave the money there we we we we make 246 00:10:27,958 --> 00:10:31,039 the call only after we have taken our 247 00:10:29,519 --> 00:10:34,600 money out and since we all think the 248 00:10:31,039 --> 00:10:35,958 same way then you get a run on the bank 249 00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:38,399 now let me start connecting this a 250 00:10:35,958 --> 00:10:41,039 little bit with uh with the kind of 251 00:10:38,399 --> 00:10:44,480 things we have done in in this course I 252 00:10:41,039 --> 00:10:47,240 I I I may actually discuss runs later in 253 00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:48,879 the course as a as a as a topic crisis 254 00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:50,799 speculative attacks and things like that 255 00:10:48,879 --> 00:10:53,480 but for 256 00:10:50,799 --> 00:10:57,679 now here what you have is an indicator 257 00:10:53,480 --> 00:11:00,039 of essentially is this is the vix a is a 258 00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:01,799 is an indicator of Supply volatility 259 00:11:00,039 --> 00:11:03,838 something is extracted from the price of 260 00:11:01,799 --> 00:11:07,039 options you don't need to know the 261 00:11:03,839 --> 00:11:09,760 details but the point is that that is 262 00:11:07,039 --> 00:11:12,159 one of the main indicators of of fear of 263 00:11:09,759 --> 00:11:15,039 of how afraid are investors in a moment 264 00:11:12,159 --> 00:11:17,199 in the market and and uh and what you 265 00:11:15,039 --> 00:11:19,838 can see here is that that this indicator 266 00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:21,360 the vixs essentially 267 00:11:19,839 --> 00:11:24,920 Spike 268 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:27,480 Thursday and and Thursday and Friday 269 00:11:24,919 --> 00:11:31,000 went up Friday went up very very rapidly 270 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:34,120 and then it got stabilized a little 271 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:38,440 now ER it turned out that it turns out 272 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:41,240 that over the weekend ER H you may have 273 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:43,560 heard the government the Consolidated 274 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:46,560 Government came up with a very massive 275 00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:49,479 package to to prevent runs on the 276 00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:51,518 remaining Banks and and also to prevent 277 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:53,920 the fact that I mean all of these were 278 00:11:51,519 --> 00:11:57,078 business deposits of a small companies 279 00:11:53,919 --> 00:11:59,958 that used even this bank for the payroll 280 00:11:57,078 --> 00:12:01,879 and so on so so what was done of this 281 00:11:59,958 --> 00:12:03,199 weakness that all the deposit not only 282 00:12:01,879 --> 00:12:06,799 the ones under 283 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:08,600 $250,000 were guarantee by the FDIC 284 00:12:06,799 --> 00:12:11,399 there are mechanism under which you can 285 00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:15,159 activate that so that means now all the 286 00:12:11,399 --> 00:12:15,159 depositors were made 287 00:12:15,399 --> 00:12:20,958 whole and but the idea was not it was 288 00:12:18,919 --> 00:12:23,799 part partly the reason to do that it was 289 00:12:20,958 --> 00:12:25,919 to prevent a mess in the pay roles of 290 00:12:23,799 --> 00:12:28,039 the small companies and all that that 291 00:12:25,919 --> 00:12:31,159 had their account in in in this bank but 292 00:12:28,039 --> 00:12:35,480 it was also to prevent on other Banks 293 00:12:31,159 --> 00:12:38,480 you know and uh and so on top of this 294 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:42,440 the FED now has a line of 295 00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:44,480 credit ER for banks to not have to sell 296 00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:46,839 their assets for small Banks they can 297 00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:48,519 just pledge the assets to the central 298 00:12:46,839 --> 00:12:52,399 bank and get an exchange for that the 299 00:12:48,519 --> 00:12:54,320 cash they need okay and they can do that 300 00:12:52,399 --> 00:12:56,879 without recognizing the implicit loss so 301 00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:59,839 without marking to market the price of 302 00:12:56,879 --> 00:13:03,120 the bonds okay so how this mechanism 303 00:12:59,839 --> 00:13:05,440 existed before the pl of 304 00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:06,720 svb we would not have seen anything like 305 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:09,079 that but the whole idea was to prevent 306 00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:11,879 that other Banks run into into that kind 307 00:13:09,078 --> 00:13:14,000 of trouble now the markets reacted well 308 00:13:11,879 --> 00:13:15,759 to all that overnight and so on but the 309 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:17,759 vi kept going up this morning now it's 310 00:13:15,759 --> 00:13:19,439 coming down again I mean there's still a 311 00:13:17,759 --> 00:13:21,319 lot of stress and if you see the shares 312 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:23,600 of First Republic Bank for example had 313 00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:26,000 declined by 60% today and things like 314 00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:30,120 that so so there's a still Panic going 315 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:32,958 on okay and as a result of that ER all 316 00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:35,120 these indicators of stress sort of are 317 00:13:32,958 --> 00:13:37,799 very stressed out remember credit 318 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:39,560 spreads I told you about that X that we 319 00:13:37,799 --> 00:13:41,000 had Le several lectures ago the 320 00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:42,679 probability of the fault of a bone the 321 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:44,839 perceived probability of the fault all 322 00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:47,319 those things went up a lot I mean the 323 00:13:44,839 --> 00:13:49,240 Riser the bonds the closer you are to 324 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:51,160 the financial system particular to small 325 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:53,399 Banks the larger those spreads have 326 00:13:51,159 --> 00:13:57,240 become so X went up a 327 00:13:53,399 --> 00:13:58,879 lot this picture that comes next I find 328 00:13:57,240 --> 00:14:00,320 it very interesting from the point of 329 00:13:58,879 --> 00:14:03,439 view of this 330 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:06,199 course what this is is the following 331 00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:11,079 this is the market 332 00:14:06,198 --> 00:14:14,359 expectation of the next hike by the 333 00:14:11,078 --> 00:14:18,278 fed the FED next announcement on policy 334 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:20,399 rate happens on the 22nd March 22nd so 335 00:14:18,278 --> 00:14:23,159 remember what has been happening is that 336 00:14:20,399 --> 00:14:24,919 that that ER since the US has been 337 00:14:23,159 --> 00:14:26,958 running sort of very hot with lots of 338 00:14:24,919 --> 00:14:29,599 inflation interest rate were increased 339 00:14:26,958 --> 00:14:31,919 very rapidly at clips of 50 basis points 340 00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:33,920 a CLI that's very large changes in 341 00:14:31,919 --> 00:14:38,278 policy rate for a country as large as 342 00:14:33,919 --> 00:14:40,078 the US and and so we had this big 25 343 00:14:38,278 --> 00:14:42,078 basis points increases and a few 344 00:14:40,078 --> 00:14:45,120 meetings ago they decided to lower the 345 00:14:42,078 --> 00:14:46,958 pace of the increases to 25 basis points 346 00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:48,320 rather than 50 Bas points per meeting 347 00:14:46,958 --> 00:14:50,000 okay so they said we're going to keep 348 00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:53,560 raising interest rate but we're going to 349 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:56,559 go out to 25 basis points now it turns 350 00:14:53,559 --> 00:14:58,278 out so this is 25 basis points the data 351 00:14:56,559 --> 00:14:59,879 has becoming very hot remember we said 352 00:14:58,278 --> 00:15:01,320 inflation looked to have Peak and now 353 00:14:59,879 --> 00:15:03,919 it's beginning sort of to turn around 354 00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:05,839 again it's beginning to rise so what has 355 00:15:03,919 --> 00:15:09,399 been happening is that the market say 356 00:15:05,839 --> 00:15:12,519 Okay 25% basis point is the most likely 357 00:15:09,399 --> 00:15:14,360 next hike but you see the expectation of 358 00:15:12,519 --> 00:15:16,560 that is it was sort of a steady around 359 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:19,000 30 basis points some people expected 360 00:15:16,559 --> 00:15:21,319 some major players expected the FED to 361 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:25,078 hike by 50 basis points not 25 basis 362 00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:27,040 points by early last week data came very 363 00:15:25,078 --> 00:15:28,758 hot so there was indication that clearly 364 00:15:27,039 --> 00:15:30,958 inflation was picking up again the labor 365 00:15:28,759 --> 00:15:32,360 market Market was very strong and so on 366 00:15:30,958 --> 00:15:34,518 so look what happened to the bets 367 00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:37,560 immediately expected value went up this 368 00:15:34,519 --> 00:15:39,360 is all traded it went up and and the 369 00:15:37,559 --> 00:15:42,439 expectation was for the next meeting was 370 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:44,800 up north of of 40 basis points so 371 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:47,319 essentially most of the market thought 372 00:15:44,799 --> 00:15:49,039 that the next hike would be 50 basis 373 00:15:47,318 --> 00:15:51,278 points 374 00:15:49,039 --> 00:15:54,078 okay but look what happened and then the 375 00:15:51,278 --> 00:15:58,519 problems of this with this Bank began 376 00:15:54,078 --> 00:16:00,439 and look how this pleted today is 15 377 00:15:58,519 --> 00:16:02,278 basis point is expected value that means 378 00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:04,839 very few people are expecting 50 basis 379 00:16:02,278 --> 00:16:07,559 point A lot of people are thinking 25 380 00:16:04,839 --> 00:16:11,720 still but about an equal size expecting 381 00:16:07,559 --> 00:16:14,439 zero so a POS in the interest rate hike 382 00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:17,079 by the FED okay and all that is a result 383 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:18,959 of the events of the last two three 384 00:16:17,078 --> 00:16:21,198 days 385 00:16:18,958 --> 00:16:24,239 Y what is there to learn from this I 386 00:16:21,198 --> 00:16:27,159 guess in like the bigger structure or 387 00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:29,000 who's at fault is it the people who got 388 00:16:27,159 --> 00:16:31,399 really scared all these depositors that 389 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:34,078 got potentially scared or or fearmonger 390 00:16:31,399 --> 00:16:36,240 in that capacity is it that the banks 391 00:16:34,078 --> 00:16:37,879 don't necessarily have I mean I can't 392 00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:39,240 feel like it's an unre there are many 393 00:16:37,879 --> 00:16:40,958 good questions and and and you're going 394 00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:42,198 to see a lot of that and politicians are 395 00:16:40,958 --> 00:16:44,679 going to talk a lot about that in the 396 00:16:42,198 --> 00:16:46,318 next few days and so on it's very clear 397 00:16:44,679 --> 00:16:49,159 that there was some sort of regulatory 398 00:16:46,318 --> 00:16:51,000 failure here the regulator it was pretty 399 00:16:49,159 --> 00:16:53,399 obvious that I mean this this bank had 400 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:56,000 doubled the asset size in in in a year 401 00:16:53,399 --> 00:16:58,879 that's already a red flag and and these 402 00:16:56,000 --> 00:17:00,879 guys are regulated by the Fed so the the 403 00:16:58,879 --> 00:17:05,119 s Francisco fed should have been worried 404 00:17:00,879 --> 00:17:07,038 about this Bank ER there is issues 405 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:08,719 conventional issues of diversification I 406 00:17:07,038 --> 00:17:11,720 mean it's pretty crazy to have all your 407 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:12,919 savings in One Bank especially if you're 408 00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:16,000 not 409 00:17:12,919 --> 00:17:18,919 insure there is issues there's 410 00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:23,279 also remember after the global financial 411 00:17:18,919 --> 00:17:26,319 crisis there's there was a bill designed 412 00:17:23,279 --> 00:17:27,639 to legislation designed to strengthen 413 00:17:26,318 --> 00:17:30,119 the balance sheet of the banks it made 414 00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:31,759 them hold a lot more cas Capital they 415 00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:33,439 are subject see if they're systemic they 416 00:17:31,759 --> 00:17:35,200 are consider they're subject to stress 417 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:36,679 test where sort of regulators go in 418 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:40,558 there and check whether portfolios can 419 00:17:36,679 --> 00:17:42,160 survive major micros shcks and so on H 420 00:17:40,558 --> 00:17:45,558 and that's that's called The Dot Frank 421 00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:48,840 Bill okay so that was done in 422 00:17:45,558 --> 00:17:50,639 2018 that got partially undone and 423 00:17:48,839 --> 00:17:52,000 partially andone precisely for these 424 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:54,919 type of Banks and these guys were 425 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:56,880 actually loving for that they said okay 426 00:17:54,919 --> 00:17:58,520 why don't you because to be sort of 427 00:17:56,880 --> 00:18:00,039 really stress test and so on by the 428 00:17:58,519 --> 00:18:03,279 regular you have to be big enough to 429 00:18:00,038 --> 00:18:06,359 really be able to live a a big mess and 430 00:18:03,279 --> 00:18:10,158 and and and so what these guys and and 431 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:13,319 Banks like them did is they Lobby a lot 432 00:18:10,159 --> 00:18:15,000 so they got the the the threshold of 433 00:18:13,319 --> 00:18:18,720 asset that you need to have in order to 434 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:21,200 be stress stress tested and so on raise 435 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:24,000 dramatically so they were right below 436 00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:27,558 the level that you need to be really 437 00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:29,480 sort of monitored very very closely by 438 00:18:27,558 --> 00:18:31,759 the regulator by the by the FED if 439 00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:33,640 you're a systemic bank then the FED 440 00:18:31,759 --> 00:18:35,279 regulates you these guys were lightly 441 00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:37,960 regulated by the FED because they were 442 00:18:35,279 --> 00:18:40,558 below that threshold so there regulatory 443 00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:44,079 failures it's clear that the regulator 444 00:18:40,558 --> 00:18:48,359 fail what it did 445 00:18:44,079 --> 00:18:50,319 depositors didn't diversify enough ER 446 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:52,158 they didn't diversify enough the bank 447 00:18:50,319 --> 00:18:54,200 itself didn't diversify enough the the 448 00:18:52,159 --> 00:18:55,480 source of funding I mean what is very 449 00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:56,720 special of this bank and that's what 450 00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:59,440 gives us hope that this stuff is not 451 00:18:56,720 --> 00:19:01,640 going to spread all around is that their 452 00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:04,600 funding was very sort of you know was 453 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:07,200 all coming from the same sector large 454 00:19:04,599 --> 00:19:08,558 saver large depositors and so on the 455 00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:10,759 typical bank doesn't have that they have 456 00:19:08,558 --> 00:19:12,240 a much broader source of funding which 457 00:19:10,759 --> 00:19:13,960 is what you need because you know 458 00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:16,839 otherwise so so there are lots of 459 00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:19,759 lessons for Bankers for 460 00:19:16,839 --> 00:19:22,038 Regulators ER for microeconomist as well 461 00:19:19,759 --> 00:19:24,640 I mean to tell you the truth one of the 462 00:19:22,038 --> 00:19:26,919 concerns with with the pace at which the 463 00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:28,840 FED has been hik in interest rates is 464 00:19:26,919 --> 00:19:30,440 that people were wondering well do we we 465 00:19:28,839 --> 00:19:32,158 know whe something will break at some 466 00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:33,200 point and there was a lot of concern 467 00:19:32,159 --> 00:19:36,720 that something could break well 468 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:39,679 something broke now and this broke 469 00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:41,440 entirely the part of the the loss comes 470 00:19:39,679 --> 00:19:43,559 entirely from interest rate highs 471 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:45,960 essentially they got into a portfolio of 472 00:19:43,558 --> 00:19:48,359 long that was very long rat when rates 473 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:51,240 began to rise so they they had losses 474 00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:54,359 entirely from that and that's a risk I 475 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:56,720 mean when you do monetary policy is that 476 00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:58,959 some people will be stretch out there 477 00:19:56,720 --> 00:20:00,880 and and and if you sort of sometimes 478 00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:02,400 miss one that is important that that's 479 00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:06,240 very costly and I think was that's one 480 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:08,600 of the reasons they wanted to lower the 481 00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:11,240 the interest R hikes from 50 basis 482 00:20:08,599 --> 00:20:14,480 points to 25 basis points because they 483 00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:17,480 knew that something could be fragile out 484 00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:20,400 there and and and this was one of those 485 00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:23,558 things so those are those are 486 00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:25,960 lessons now I was about to connect with 487 00:20:23,558 --> 00:20:28,798 the things we did in a few lectures ago 488 00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:31,679 I said look so this is telling you the 489 00:20:28,798 --> 00:20:34,960 markets when they saw this x going 490 00:20:31,679 --> 00:20:37,000 up and started betting that the that the 491 00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:38,759 FED will not hike interest rate as much 492 00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:40,000 and in fact that they may even pause 493 00:20:38,759 --> 00:20:42,200 rather than raise the interest rate as 494 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:45,798 was planned they may even pause interest 495 00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:45,798 rates we talked about 496 00:20:45,839 --> 00:20:51,959 this lecture 497 00:20:48,679 --> 00:20:56,200 seven remember in lecture seven when we 498 00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:59,200 talk about the expanded islm model we 499 00:20:56,200 --> 00:21:01,640 had this x variable and we said look if 500 00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:03,159 x goes up that measure of riskiness and 501 00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:06,240 so on that increases the cost of 502 00:21:03,159 --> 00:21:08,480 borrowing for the private sector that is 503 00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:11,120 like a shift in the yes to the left for 504 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:13,798 any given safe interest rate saved by 505 00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:15,479 the central bank now all of the sudden 506 00:21:13,798 --> 00:21:18,960 the cost of borrowing for companies is 507 00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:22,798 higher and therefore this is 508 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:24,519 contractionary okay and then we went on 509 00:21:22,798 --> 00:21:26,079 remember we went on and said well here 510 00:21:24,519 --> 00:21:29,079 it is the question what should the 511 00:21:26,079 --> 00:21:32,000 Central Bank do in this case 512 00:21:29,079 --> 00:21:32,000 in which X went 513 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:37,679 up that's was the next slide inide of 514 00:21:35,679 --> 00:21:39,798 fact you know lower the interest rate 515 00:21:37,679 --> 00:21:44,000 because there's one component of cost of 516 00:21:39,798 --> 00:21:47,119 borrowing that's going up for for ER for 517 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:49,159 firms which is the X well the FED can 518 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:51,199 offset that by lowering the interest 519 00:21:49,159 --> 00:21:52,559 rate now here they're not planning yet 520 00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:54,000 to lower the interest rate they were 521 00:21:52,558 --> 00:21:56,200 planning to raise interest and now 522 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:58,640 they're slowing down that that's a bet 523 00:21:56,200 --> 00:22:01,120 so the market knows some basic and 524 00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:03,600 expanded islm model because that's 525 00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:05,798 that's what you know explains exactly 526 00:22:03,599 --> 00:22:08,519 what you should anticipate that that's 527 00:22:05,798 --> 00:22:10,720 what is likely to to 528 00:22:08,519 --> 00:22:12,918 happen anyways that's where we are at 529 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:12,919 this 530 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:17,319 moment any questions about this 531 00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:19,919 otherwise I'm going to move to the 532 00:22:17,319 --> 00:22:22,038 lecture really but I thought we had to 533 00:22:19,919 --> 00:22:25,159 talk about 534 00:22:22,038 --> 00:22:27,440 it well in anyways if it gets a lot 535 00:22:25,159 --> 00:22:29,200 Messier I'm hoping that it won but if it 536 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:31,200 gets a lot Messier then we can another 537 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:33,919 section at the end I can replace 538 00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:37,440 something for for something on banking 539 00:22:33,919 --> 00:22:37,440 crisis and something like that 540 00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:45,360 okay which is what I teach in one of my 541 00:22:40,599 --> 00:22:48,158 graduate courses so would be would be 542 00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:52,199 fine anyway so now what I want to do is 543 00:22:48,159 --> 00:22:53,919 start this islm PC model and sort of the 544 00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:55,600 number the name is not very creative 545 00:22:53,919 --> 00:22:59,759 it's pretty obvious what we're going to 546 00:22:55,599 --> 00:23:02,319 do here no is going to combine the aslm 547 00:22:59,759 --> 00:23:04,640 with with the Philips curve and what 548 00:23:02,319 --> 00:23:07,119 this this will do for us is it will 549 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:09,440 allow us to think not only about the 550 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:11,239 impact of a policy or a shock but also 551 00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:14,519 think about what happens over time with 552 00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:16,798 that shock okay ER not to the long run 553 00:23:14,519 --> 00:23:18,879 but we call this analysis sort of the 554 00:23:16,798 --> 00:23:21,359 short run which is what happens in the 555 00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:24,200 very few early weeks months and what 556 00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:26,079 happens in the medium run say a year a 557 00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:30,440 year and a half from now and so this 558 00:23:26,079 --> 00:23:30,439 model will allow us to put all of the 559 00:23:30,679 --> 00:23:36,480 together 560 00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:39,319 um so and But but so so so you don't get 561 00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:40,798 lost on this so the analysis of the 562 00:23:39,319 --> 00:23:44,158 short run essentially will remain 563 00:23:40,798 --> 00:23:47,200 unchanged it's is our islm mod it's just 564 00:23:44,159 --> 00:23:50,039 that give it a little time and you start 565 00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:51,840 seeing other certain effects get undone 566 00:23:50,038 --> 00:23:54,440 and some others get exacerbated and so 567 00:23:51,839 --> 00:23:56,918 on okay but but the short one is still 568 00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:59,159 islm is your basic mod but then we're 569 00:23:56,919 --> 00:24:03,360 going to see that things happen 570 00:23:59,159 --> 00:24:05,200 over time so remember the slm model was 571 00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:07,759 essentially this is equilibrium in the 572 00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:12,080 Goods Market and then we had an LM which 573 00:24:07,759 --> 00:24:14,919 said I equal to I bar no and so I'm 574 00:24:12,079 --> 00:24:17,439 going to replace the LM already inside 575 00:24:14,919 --> 00:24:20,120 this and I get my islm mod so for any 576 00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:22,519 given I bar I could solve out for 577 00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:25,119 equilibrium output 578 00:24:22,519 --> 00:24:27,200 now here I'm going to do I'm going to 579 00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:28,639 adopt the the the I didn't want to do it 580 00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:30,880 before but I think at this point is 581 00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:33,679 useful because of will simplify the 582 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:35,559 diagrams when we draw them to really 583 00:24:33,679 --> 00:24:38,440 think of the FED as setting the real 584 00:24:35,558 --> 00:24:40,440 interest rate okay so I'm going to 585 00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:41,640 assume now and then I'm going to explain 586 00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:45,200 what 587 00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:46,759 happens when that's a bad assumption but 588 00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:48,440 but I'm going to assume for now that 589 00:24:46,759 --> 00:24:50,319 rather than the FED setting the nominal 590 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:54,200 interest rate that the FED is set in the 591 00:24:50,319 --> 00:24:57,398 real interest rate okay so it's setting 592 00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:59,759 this and then we're going to talk about 593 00:24:57,398 --> 00:25:01,918 problems I mean in 594 00:24:59,759 --> 00:25:03,839 principle if the interest rate is not 595 00:25:01,919 --> 00:25:06,360 against the zero lower 596 00:25:03,839 --> 00:25:07,839 bound the FED can always do that say 597 00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:09,119 okay I'm going to give them them I'm 598 00:25:07,839 --> 00:25:10,839 going to give you the nominal interest 599 00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:12,959 rate that given this expected inflation 600 00:25:10,839 --> 00:25:14,558 gives me the real interest rate I want 601 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:16,600 okay that's what the FED is really 602 00:25:14,558 --> 00:25:18,158 trying to do all the time the FED is not 603 00:25:16,599 --> 00:25:19,959 trying to figure out what is the 604 00:25:18,159 --> 00:25:21,799 equilibrium nominal interest rate he's 605 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:23,480 always trying to figure out whether the 606 00:25:21,798 --> 00:25:26,038 real interest rate is at the right level 607 00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:27,880 or not for the economy now the tool they 608 00:25:26,038 --> 00:25:29,079 have is a nominal interest rate but they 609 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:32,600 are thinking thinking always about the 610 00:25:29,079 --> 00:25:35,000 real interest rate and and and and 611 00:25:32,599 --> 00:25:37,278 sometimes there's a problem because it's 612 00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:38,759 a when you against a zero lower bound 613 00:25:37,278 --> 00:25:41,159 then you can't affect the real interest 614 00:25:38,759 --> 00:25:43,519 in the same way but but most of the time 615 00:25:41,159 --> 00:25:46,000 you can and so I'm going to think I'm 616 00:25:43,519 --> 00:25:49,200 going to rewrite the slm mo now but I'm 617 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:50,880 going to call this our bar and the bar 618 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:52,519 is there just to tell you remind you 619 00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:54,600 that there something that the FED is 620 00:25:52,519 --> 00:25:57,398 setting 621 00:25:54,599 --> 00:25:59,319 okay so that's our aslm remember the 622 00:25:57,398 --> 00:26:01,119 Philips curve part 623 00:25:59,319 --> 00:26:03,200 the Philips that was our Philips curve 624 00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:05,398 remember the last once we replace the 625 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:07,640 natural rate of unemployment in there we 626 00:26:05,398 --> 00:26:09,319 had the inflation minus expected 627 00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:11,240 inflation was a decreasing function of 628 00:26:09,319 --> 00:26:12,798 the unemployment Gap okay so if 629 00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:15,359 unemployment was above the natural rate 630 00:26:12,798 --> 00:26:18,000 of unemployment inflation was lower than 631 00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:19,599 expected inflation and conversely if the 632 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:21,398 unemployment rate was lower than the 633 00:26:19,599 --> 00:26:23,759 unemployment rate and I said one the 634 00:26:21,398 --> 00:26:27,359 situation of the US today is that 635 00:26:23,759 --> 00:26:29,879 everything seems to point towards toward 636 00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:31,079 a situation where U is below un that's 637 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:34,278 the reason we're seeing sort of high 638 00:26:31,079 --> 00:26:35,558 inflation okay now what I'm going to do 639 00:26:34,278 --> 00:26:37,839 next is I'm going to go from an 640 00:26:35,558 --> 00:26:40,079 employment to Output so I can put you 641 00:26:37,839 --> 00:26:43,480 see I don't have an employment anywhere 642 00:26:40,079 --> 00:26:46,158 here I have output so what I want to do 643 00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:48,480 is play with the Philips curve and until 644 00:26:46,159 --> 00:26:50,440 I write it in the space of inflation and 645 00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:52,079 output not inflation and unemployment so 646 00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:55,720 I can put the two curves together that's 647 00:26:52,079 --> 00:26:57,720 what I want to remember I want to merge 648 00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:59,399 here the slm with the PC so I want to 649 00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:03,120 put them in the the same 650 00:26:59,398 --> 00:27:04,678 variable so remember we have operated 651 00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:07,719 with a very simple production function 652 00:27:04,679 --> 00:27:09,679 in which output is equal to employment 653 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:12,558 remember that's what we assume 654 00:27:09,679 --> 00:27:15,519 employment we call it n well I can 655 00:27:12,558 --> 00:27:18,038 rewrite n employment as the labor force 656 00:27:15,519 --> 00:27:21,359 times one minus the unemployment rate 657 00:27:18,038 --> 00:27:24,879 that's employment okay so that's I can 658 00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:27,918 think of output as that similar I can 659 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:30,000 define a what we call we don't call it 660 00:27:27,919 --> 00:27:32,880 natur output we call it potential 661 00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:36,440 output no and potential output is 662 00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:38,120 defined as as the output that you get 663 00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:40,840 when unemployment is at the natural rate 664 00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:43,119 of unemployment okay so that's a 665 00:27:40,839 --> 00:27:46,398 definition three lines the potential 666 00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:49,798 output is when 667 00:27:46,398 --> 00:27:51,038 when the output you get which in this 668 00:27:49,798 --> 00:27:53,038 with this production function is the 669 00:27:51,038 --> 00:27:55,079 employment you get when you're at the 670 00:27:53,038 --> 00:27:57,319 unemployment at the natural rate of 671 00:27:55,079 --> 00:28:00,079 unemployment and now I can construct the 672 00:27:57,319 --> 00:28:02,038 difference the minus that this is 673 00:28:00,079 --> 00:28:03,759 something we call the output Gap and you 674 00:28:02,038 --> 00:28:07,519 may 675 00:28:03,759 --> 00:28:11,158 hear typically when people talk 676 00:28:07,519 --> 00:28:13,640 about issues of monetary 677 00:28:11,159 --> 00:28:16,399 policy often is described in terms of 678 00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:17,919 this variable More Than This Gap say 679 00:28:16,398 --> 00:28:20,239 people talk about the output Gap if the 680 00:28:17,919 --> 00:28:22,159 output Gap is positive that means output 681 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:24,359 is above the natural rate of out the 682 00:28:22,159 --> 00:28:26,799 potential output when the output Gap is 683 00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:29,240 negative output is below potential 684 00:28:26,798 --> 00:28:32,038 output so I can re write this you know 685 00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:37,200 this minus that is just that and now I 686 00:28:32,038 --> 00:28:41,079 can I can replace uus un n here for H 687 00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:43,519 minus Yus YN / L and I get the Philips 688 00:28:41,079 --> 00:28:46,000 curve now written in terms of the output 689 00:28:43,519 --> 00:28:48,880 Gap and inflation so this says when 690 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:50,960 output is above potential output when 691 00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:53,600 the output Gap is positive then 692 00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:55,558 inflation exceed expected inflation 693 00:28:53,599 --> 00:28:58,398 conversely when output is below 694 00:28:55,558 --> 00:29:01,240 potential output then inflation is below 695 00:28:58,398 --> 00:29:02,918 expected inflation okay but the logic is 696 00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:05,880 exactly the same as the logic we had 697 00:29:02,919 --> 00:29:07,480 here why is that this happens well 698 00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:09,080 because when output is above the 699 00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:10,839 potential output that means also 700 00:29:09,079 --> 00:29:14,480 unemployment is lower than the natural 701 00:29:10,839 --> 00:29:17,398 rate of unemployment okay so that's a 702 00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:19,440 that's the logic any question about 703 00:29:17,398 --> 00:29:23,479 this 704 00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:28,399 no okay good so anyway so now we have a 705 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:31,000 a Philips curve and our aslm model so so 706 00:29:28,398 --> 00:29:33,158 let's put them together and suppose for 707 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:35,720 now and when last example when I carry 708 00:29:33,159 --> 00:29:38,080 around is that expected inflation is 709 00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:39,519 equal to lag inflation so this a case in 710 00:29:38,079 --> 00:29:41,000 which expected inflation is not well 711 00:29:39,519 --> 00:29:42,240 anchor and then we're want to talk about 712 00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:45,398 what happens when it's anchor and not 713 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:47,640 anchor so suppose that that inflation is 714 00:29:45,398 --> 00:29:49,000 actually whatever is this year's 715 00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:52,759 inflation that's what you expect for 716 00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:55,759 next year okay so here I have an example 717 00:29:52,759 --> 00:29:57,440 in which here I'm plotting our islm now 718 00:29:55,759 --> 00:30:00,679 which I'm using remember the real 719 00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:02,320 interest right here here H and in this 720 00:30:00,679 --> 00:30:04,519 diagram down here I'm plotting the 721 00:30:02,319 --> 00:30:08,000 Philips 722 00:30:04,519 --> 00:30:10,519 curve okay so first thing let's look 723 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:13,038 about this Philip SC why is that where 724 00:30:10,519 --> 00:30:16,079 sloping here is output so this this is a 725 00:30:13,038 --> 00:30:17,319 parameter Pi n so and and and this is 726 00:30:16,079 --> 00:30:19,879 the left hand side variable so it's 727 00:30:17,319 --> 00:30:22,639 obviously increasing in output why is 728 00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:24,760 that well because if output grows that 729 00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:28,080 means unemployment goes down that means 730 00:30:24,759 --> 00:30:32,319 wages go up prices go up and you get 731 00:30:28,079 --> 00:30:33,759 inflation that's a mechanism okay so in 732 00:30:32,319 --> 00:30:36,319 this particular 733 00:30:33,759 --> 00:30:38,200 example we have this is the real 734 00:30:36,319 --> 00:30:40,960 interest rate that the FED has set at 735 00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:43,360 this moment that's equilibrium output 736 00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:45,038 what I'm trying to tell you here is that 737 00:30:43,359 --> 00:30:46,759 nothing has change in the way you 738 00:30:45,038 --> 00:30:49,038 calculate equilibrium output you just 739 00:30:46,759 --> 00:30:50,599 use for that you only need the stop 740 00:30:49,038 --> 00:30:52,798 diagram in the short 741 00:30:50,599 --> 00:30:56,918 run I tell you what the real interest 742 00:30:52,798 --> 00:30:58,480 rate is set by the is which is a 743 00:30:56,919 --> 00:31:01,320 decision by the Fed 744 00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:04,000 then I know where my is is I can pin 745 00:31:01,319 --> 00:31:07,359 down output I don't need this diagram to 746 00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:11,599 really pin down equilibrium output 747 00:31:07,359 --> 00:31:14,319 okay nothing is different there 748 00:31:11,599 --> 00:31:17,719 but and this is an example in this 749 00:31:14,319 --> 00:31:19,000 particular case we have that inflation 750 00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:22,798 is rising 751 00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:25,119 here and the question is why so for this 752 00:31:22,798 --> 00:31:27,679 what I'm trying to say is that for this 753 00:31:25,119 --> 00:31:30,319 is which is a function of fiscal policy 754 00:31:27,679 --> 00:31:33,278 of how confident consumers are and stuff 755 00:31:30,319 --> 00:31:35,519 like that if the FED chooses this real 756 00:31:33,278 --> 00:31:36,919 interest rate we end up with this output 757 00:31:35,519 --> 00:31:40,319 but it turns out that this level of 758 00:31:36,919 --> 00:31:42,559 output is increasing 759 00:31:40,319 --> 00:31:44,319 inflation and the increase in inflation 760 00:31:42,558 --> 00:31:47,798 I can read here I see the change in 761 00:31:44,319 --> 00:31:49,839 inflation is positive here why is this 762 00:31:47,798 --> 00:31:51,278 happening um if you're changing the 763 00:31:49,839 --> 00:31:54,000 alpha that means you have a different 764 00:31:51,278 --> 00:31:57,919 level ofemployment which changes the um 765 00:31:54,000 --> 00:32:00,119 expected inflation R yeah well actually 766 00:31:57,919 --> 00:32:01,480 here I don't need to take take this 767 00:32:00,119 --> 00:32:04,798 diagram would have also work with 768 00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:06,679 expected inflation as a constant here 769 00:32:04,798 --> 00:32:09,038 I'm I'm more looking at what happens to 770 00:32:06,679 --> 00:32:10,320 inflation I'm saying if output is above 771 00:32:09,038 --> 00:32:12,440 the natural rate of output then 772 00:32:10,319 --> 00:32:13,759 inflation is above expected inflation 773 00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:15,960 but I can take expected inflation as a 774 00:32:13,759 --> 00:32:18,000 constant in fact here it is a constant 775 00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:19,919 because constant in the sense that is 776 00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:22,240 given at time T because it's a previous 777 00:32:19,919 --> 00:32:23,919 year's inflation but what is important 778 00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:26,798 is that you have too much aggregate 779 00:32:23,919 --> 00:32:31,080 demand this economy is running very hot 780 00:32:26,798 --> 00:32:33,038 if output is positive then that is going 781 00:32:31,079 --> 00:32:34,599 to lead to inflationary pressures in 782 00:32:33,038 --> 00:32:36,200 this particular model where expected 783 00:32:34,599 --> 00:32:37,959 inflation is equal to l inflation this 784 00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:39,880 is pretty bad because not only you get 785 00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:42,880 inflation above the target of the FED 786 00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:45,799 but inflation is rising over 787 00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:47,760 time so this is a case in which this 788 00:32:45,798 --> 00:32:49,319 Central Bank is setting the real 789 00:32:47,759 --> 00:32:52,440 interest rate too 790 00:32:49,319 --> 00:32:54,879 low okay now you may want Japan is doing 791 00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:56,639 a little bit of this but they have a 792 00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:58,320 reason is that they have had inflation 793 00:32:56,638 --> 00:33:00,079 so low that it makes sense for them to 794 00:32:58,319 --> 00:33:02,599 build a little a little 795 00:33:00,079 --> 00:33:04,398 inflation in the US it made less sense 796 00:33:02,599 --> 00:33:05,839 remember the US got into trouble because 797 00:33:04,398 --> 00:33:07,558 it was in a situation like this for a 798 00:33:05,839 --> 00:33:10,638 long period of time I mean the you the 799 00:33:07,558 --> 00:33:12,839 reason we have today 6% inflation well 800 00:33:10,638 --> 00:33:16,398 depends which indicator you use is 801 00:33:12,839 --> 00:33:19,119 because the US experience sort of a year 802 00:33:16,398 --> 00:33:21,079 with a situation like this a year and a 803 00:33:19,119 --> 00:33:23,319 half okay and that's what sometimes 804 00:33:21,079 --> 00:33:25,398 people said the Fed was behind the curve 805 00:33:23,319 --> 00:33:28,079 they they for for a variety of reasons 806 00:33:25,398 --> 00:33:30,599 one initially potential output the Cline 807 00:33:28,079 --> 00:33:32,240 because of all the covid related issues 808 00:33:30,599 --> 00:33:34,199 they expected that to recover quickly so 809 00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:35,798 they says well let it go because I'm not 810 00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:37,278 going to start moving my policy right 811 00:33:35,798 --> 00:33:39,798 around for something that will recover 812 00:33:37,278 --> 00:33:41,880 quickly as soon as Co is gone well it 813 00:33:39,798 --> 00:33:43,960 took longer to recover and then it came 814 00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:46,799 the sort of the Russian war shock and so 815 00:33:43,960 --> 00:33:50,159 on and so natural rate of unemployment 816 00:33:46,798 --> 00:33:52,960 moved to the left to start and second 817 00:33:50,159 --> 00:33:55,880 because of an enormous policy support 818 00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:58,360 primarily H and the fact that that 819 00:33:55,880 --> 00:34:01,039 houses were able to save a lot during 820 00:33:58,359 --> 00:34:03,398 it there was a lot of pent up demand 821 00:34:01,038 --> 00:34:05,079 then we had enormous aggregate demand 822 00:34:03,398 --> 00:34:07,199 when we came out of it and the real 823 00:34:05,079 --> 00:34:09,319 interestate that we had was just way too 824 00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:10,519 low for all that agregate demand and 825 00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:13,240 that 826 00:34:10,519 --> 00:34:14,918 low potential output so we were in a 827 00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:15,878 situation like this and inflation began 828 00:34:14,918 --> 00:34:19,000 to 829 00:34:15,878 --> 00:34:20,838 climb initially expected inflation was 830 00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:22,519 very well anchor and then we began to 831 00:34:20,838 --> 00:34:24,119 lose the anchor then we recover it and 832 00:34:22,519 --> 00:34:25,719 and now we're losing it again we shall 833 00:34:24,119 --> 00:34:27,838 see what happens after this current 834 00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:29,678 episode but that was exactly a situation 835 00:34:27,838 --> 00:34:32,239 of the US and of most economies around 836 00:34:29,679 --> 00:34:34,918 the world China is in a different story 837 00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:38,199 but in most economies around the world 838 00:34:34,918 --> 00:34:40,480 you certainly Europe all of them the UK 839 00:34:38,199 --> 00:34:43,000 Continental Europe and the UK Latin 840 00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:44,918 America when you look the situation was 841 00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:50,639 like that just real interest were way 842 00:34:44,918 --> 00:34:52,319 too low for a um um the natural rate the 843 00:34:50,639 --> 00:34:54,440 potential the level of the potential 844 00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:57,760 output we had at that time and so we got 845 00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:59,079 into situation like this 846 00:34:57,760 --> 00:35:01,079 okay so that's the short run in the 847 00:34:59,079 --> 00:35:03,160 short run if you have an interest rate 848 00:35:01,079 --> 00:35:04,640 that is very low I mean again in the 849 00:35:03,159 --> 00:35:06,838 short run you you know how to determine 850 00:35:04,639 --> 00:35:08,319 output given a real interest rate and 851 00:35:06,838 --> 00:35:10,000 then now you can say a little more say 852 00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:11,760 okay but that's going to put inflation 853 00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:13,440 it's going to cause inflationary 854 00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:14,720 pressures up or down depending on 855 00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:16,358 whether you are to the right or to the 856 00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:18,118 left of the natural rate of output 857 00:35:16,358 --> 00:35:21,000 that's a new twist about the short run 858 00:35:18,119 --> 00:35:23,680 that you know but now let's start moving 859 00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:26,960 over time so what happens over 860 00:35:23,679 --> 00:35:30,118 time well first let me Define something 861 00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:31,519 well potential output we know what it is 862 00:35:30,119 --> 00:35:34,160 but I'm going to define something which 863 00:35:31,519 --> 00:35:36,079 is called the natural rate of interest 864 00:35:34,159 --> 00:35:37,440 rate sometimes called the neutral 865 00:35:36,079 --> 00:35:39,359 interest rate sometimes called the 866 00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:42,159 weelian interest rate let me not get 867 00:35:39,358 --> 00:35:45,279 into that story but I'm going to Define 868 00:35:42,159 --> 00:35:48,118 implicitly the natural rate of interest 869 00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:49,839 rate or the neutral rate of interest or 870 00:35:48,119 --> 00:35:52,720 some people call it rst star you may 871 00:35:49,838 --> 00:35:54,119 have heard of RS star in the newspapers 872 00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:55,719 people talk about R star when they are 873 00:35:54,119 --> 00:35:58,760 talking about RAR they're talking about 874 00:35:55,719 --> 00:36:01,799 that okay is simply the interest rate 875 00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:03,440 that that makes the natur the potential 876 00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:05,839 output the equilibrium of the Goods 877 00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:08,920 Market okay so I'm solving implicitly I 878 00:36:05,838 --> 00:36:10,199 say I want to get as a result as an I 879 00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:13,119 want to get as a result of this 880 00:36:10,199 --> 00:36:15,159 equilibrium here H the natural rate of 881 00:36:13,119 --> 00:36:17,079 output what is the interest I need to 882 00:36:15,159 --> 00:36:20,000 pick so that's the 883 00:36:17,079 --> 00:36:22,599 case okay so I want to get the natural 884 00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:24,280 rate of output here the potential output 885 00:36:22,599 --> 00:36:27,000 I know that there is an interest rate 886 00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:28,240 real interest rate at which that holds 887 00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:30,960 no it's a matter looking for the 888 00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:33,078 interest rate that does that and in this 889 00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:34,800 particular diagram is this you see at 890 00:36:33,079 --> 00:36:38,480 this interest 891 00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:40,720 rate the ASI equilibrium output is 892 00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:45,719 exactly the natural rate of 893 00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:49,000 output okay so what I know is that 894 00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:52,318 eventually the economy will have to go 895 00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:55,480 there no eventually the economy will 896 00:36:52,318 --> 00:36:59,800 have to go there so how will this happen 897 00:36:55,480 --> 00:37:01,159 in practice the way we happen is okay 898 00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:03,760 this is the point we were at in the 899 00:37:01,159 --> 00:37:06,039 previous slide 900 00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:08,520 no so we were 901 00:37:06,039 --> 00:37:10,800 here well that's building in 902 00:37:08,519 --> 00:37:13,159 inflationary 903 00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:15,880 pressure what do you think will happen 904 00:37:13,159 --> 00:37:15,879 inflation start 905 00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:25,440 climbing who will react who is in charge 906 00:37:21,280 --> 00:37:25,440 not letting inflation get get carried 907 00:37:25,679 --> 00:37:29,838 away Central Bank know the Fed so what 908 00:37:28,318 --> 00:37:30,920 they'll start doing is hiking interest 909 00:37:29,838 --> 00:37:33,358 rate which is exactly what they have 910 00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:35,519 been doing no and as they hike interest 911 00:37:33,358 --> 00:37:37,880 rate you know they're going to 912 00:37:35,519 --> 00:37:39,599 keep they take they start increasing the 913 00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:42,519 real interest rate interest until they 914 00:37:39,599 --> 00:37:47,160 get to this point okay that's 915 00:37:42,519 --> 00:37:51,639 idea so the point is that in the medium 916 00:37:47,159 --> 00:37:53,239 run a a the real interest real variables 917 00:37:51,639 --> 00:37:55,318 determine real variables not monetary 918 00:37:53,239 --> 00:37:56,719 policy monetary policy has to follow 919 00:37:55,318 --> 00:37:59,480 whatever it is that the economy throws 920 00:37:56,719 --> 00:38:00,919 at them banks have to follow whatever is 921 00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:02,679 the real interest rate if they made a 922 00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:04,519 mistake and they set an real interest 923 00:38:02,679 --> 00:38:06,358 rate which is not consistent with a 924 00:38:04,519 --> 00:38:08,199 stable inflation they're going to learn 925 00:38:06,358 --> 00:38:10,039 about it and over time they're going to 926 00:38:08,199 --> 00:38:14,799 have to fix that and when will the 927 00:38:10,039 --> 00:38:16,960 problem go away only when H they they 928 00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:19,359 reach the natural rate of unemployment 929 00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:21,480 okay and so that's what will happen as 930 00:38:19,358 --> 00:38:24,358 the real interest start going up from 931 00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:27,079 here to there then you start seeing the 932 00:38:24,358 --> 00:38:29,880 change in inflation this particular mole 933 00:38:27,079 --> 00:38:31,519 ER um declining and declining and when 934 00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:34,480 you get to an natural rate of output at 935 00:38:31,519 --> 00:38:34,480 least you get a stable 936 00:38:36,039 --> 00:38:42,440 inflation is this adjustment 937 00:38:39,838 --> 00:38:45,239 clear okay good okay so that's what 938 00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:47,440 happened in the medium run so the medium 939 00:38:45,239 --> 00:38:49,759 run is described as moving from that 940 00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:52,119 point here the whole process of going 941 00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:55,800 back to a situation where we converge to 942 00:38:52,119 --> 00:38:57,559 the Natural rate of interest rate and 943 00:38:55,800 --> 00:38:59,160 therefore the natural rate of output and 944 00:38:57,559 --> 00:39:01,920 the natural rate of unemployment and all 945 00:38:59,159 --> 00:39:03,960 these kind of things okay so that's the 946 00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:07,358 short run is whatever his output is 947 00:39:03,960 --> 00:39:10,318 That's So slm the medium run is whatever 948 00:39:07,358 --> 00:39:11,639 the the natural rate tells you should be 949 00:39:10,318 --> 00:39:13,039 the natural rate of unemployment the 950 00:39:11,639 --> 00:39:15,078 natural rate of output and therefore the 951 00:39:13,039 --> 00:39:16,318 natural rate of interest rate or weelian 952 00:39:15,079 --> 00:39:19,960 interest rate or the neutral interest 953 00:39:16,318 --> 00:39:21,960 rate or our star that's all pinned down 954 00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:23,679 there in the in the in the medium run 955 00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:26,358 and the transition is obviously going 956 00:39:23,679 --> 00:39:27,879 from the short run like pure LS slm to 957 00:39:26,358 --> 00:39:30,199 the Natural rate 958 00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:33,880 type analysis 959 00:39:30,199 --> 00:39:36,439 okay now I assume here and that's 960 00:39:33,880 --> 00:39:40,480 related to your answer I assume here 961 00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:42,838 that expected inflation was an anchor 962 00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:45,920 that is that expected inflation was 963 00:39:42,838 --> 00:39:48,318 equal to l inflation that's I I told you 964 00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:51,079 before that's not what Central One banks 965 00:39:48,318 --> 00:39:55,239 want to be because that means that if 966 00:39:51,079 --> 00:39:57,079 you mess up inflation is high and and 967 00:39:55,239 --> 00:39:58,679 then in order to bring it down you also 968 00:39:57,079 --> 00:40:00,440 have to bring down expected inflation 969 00:39:58,679 --> 00:40:02,598 you need to cause a recession and you 970 00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:04,800 can see that here so suppose that the 971 00:40:02,599 --> 00:40:06,160 Central Bank starts with the level of 972 00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:08,318 inflation that it like suppose that this 973 00:40:06,159 --> 00:40:09,960 is the model so what I said before the 974 00:40:08,318 --> 00:40:12,400 expected inflation is equal to lag 975 00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:14,000 inflation suppose that the Central Bank 976 00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:18,519 starts at the level of inflation that it 977 00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:21,960 likes 2% in the US okay I suppose that 978 00:40:18,519 --> 00:40:23,480 for whatever reason whatever shock it 979 00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:25,800 finds itself with an interest rate that 980 00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:29,400 is too low a real interest rate is too 981 00:40:25,800 --> 00:40:32,359 low that means in inflation exceeds 982 00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:35,519 expected inflation which was 983 00:40:32,358 --> 00:40:38,440 2% well by next year say this suppos 984 00:40:35,519 --> 00:40:40,920 this Gap is 2% well by next year the G 985 00:40:38,440 --> 00:40:45,559 inflation is 986 00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:48,400 4% okay so if your inflation is 4% in 987 00:40:45,559 --> 00:40:50,679 fact in the US it got to be 9% if you 988 00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:52,920 are at 9% level of inflation and this is 989 00:40:50,679 --> 00:40:55,679 the model of expected for expected 990 00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:57,838 inflation you have then Houston you have 991 00:40:55,679 --> 00:40:59,838 a problem because it's not enough with 992 00:40:57,838 --> 00:41:01,719 raising interest rate up to this point 993 00:40:59,838 --> 00:41:04,799 suppose that the FED says wow I don't 994 00:41:01,719 --> 00:41:06,480 like 9% I'm going to go back to that 995 00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:08,280 that clearly tells me that my output is 996 00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:09,800 way above the natural rate of output I'm 997 00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:11,800 going to hike interest rate and somebody 998 00:41:09,800 --> 00:41:14,359 tells the fed this is your natural 999 00:41:11,800 --> 00:41:15,519 interest rate a very good research 1000 00:41:14,358 --> 00:41:17,199 Department tells him look this is your 1001 00:41:15,519 --> 00:41:18,800 natural interest hike it to there 1002 00:41:17,199 --> 00:41:20,399 suppose the FED hikes the interest rate 1003 00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:22,800 to that point what 1004 00:41:20,400 --> 00:41:25,358 happens so the FED realized here this 1005 00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:28,240 was going really wrong they end up with 1006 00:41:25,358 --> 00:41:30,159 9% inflation so but somebody tells him 1007 00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:32,959 look this is your natural your neutral 1008 00:41:30,159 --> 00:41:35,000 interest rate your R star bring it there 1009 00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:37,559 and the FED immediately reacts and takes 1010 00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:40,119 it there what 1011 00:41:37,559 --> 00:41:41,960 happened is the Fed happy with the final 1012 00:41:40,119 --> 00:41:44,760 outcome and supposed the res Department 1013 00:41:41,960 --> 00:41:48,519 was really good so they got got it right 1014 00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:51,280 so the r star was the right R 1015 00:41:48,519 --> 00:41:53,199 star okay and the FED implemented that 1016 00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:54,519 policy move interest rate suppose that 1017 00:41:53,199 --> 00:41:56,719 the interest rate the real interest rate 1018 00:41:54,519 --> 00:41:58,679 they had was minus 1% I'm telling you 1019 00:41:56,719 --> 00:42:02,000 numbers that are not that different from 1020 00:41:58,679 --> 00:42:04,000 what we had minus 1% and and and the 1021 00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:06,880 research Department tells no your your 1022 00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:08,719 RN is really 1% so they hike interest 1023 00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:12,240 rate by 2% 1024 00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:12,239 immediately and now what 1025 00:42:19,838 --> 00:42:23,679 happens 1026 00:42:21,358 --> 00:42:25,598 so I guess that question is a little 1027 00:42:23,679 --> 00:42:28,519 bague but but I'm saying is the Central 1028 00:42:25,599 --> 00:42:31,920 Bank happy now that it o I got we got 1029 00:42:28,519 --> 00:42:33,719 the right natural rate neutral rate it's 1030 00:42:31,920 --> 00:42:36,039 called neutral 1031 00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:37,959 rate well I'm telling you I wouldn't be 1032 00:42:36,039 --> 00:42:39,759 asking you if the Fed was happy after 1033 00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:42,318 that so why do you think why why are 1034 00:42:39,760 --> 00:42:45,680 they unhappy why is the Fed unhappy 1035 00:42:42,318 --> 00:42:47,440 after that not unhappy with the policy 1036 00:42:45,679 --> 00:42:49,039 but but but when I'm saying the 1037 00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:51,838 adjustment is not completed at that 1038 00:42:49,039 --> 00:42:51,838 point 1039 00:42:56,119 --> 00:43:01,119 why and I'm trying to make the bigger 1040 00:42:58,400 --> 00:43:02,720 point for why central banks are so eager 1041 00:43:01,119 --> 00:43:04,640 to maintain credibility and not have 1042 00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:06,838 this kind of model of expected inflation 1043 00:43:04,639 --> 00:43:08,719 they want the markets to believe them 1044 00:43:06,838 --> 00:43:10,838 that that they have a Target and that 1045 00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:12,598 they're going to go to that Target and 1046 00:43:10,838 --> 00:43:14,358 and that to set their expected inflation 1047 00:43:12,599 --> 00:43:16,440 equal to that constant equal to a Target 1048 00:43:14,358 --> 00:43:18,239 that's what they dream with because if 1049 00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:20,280 they don't get that if they get this 1050 00:43:18,239 --> 00:43:22,519 instead things are 1051 00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:26,079 nasty and I'm trying to describe that 1052 00:43:22,519 --> 00:43:27,920 Nas what what what is happening now so 1053 00:43:26,079 --> 00:43:31,039 what happens here okay so so so we went 1054 00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:33,079 here inflation got to be 9% and now the 1055 00:43:31,039 --> 00:43:36,318 FED boom hike interest rate 1056 00:43:33,079 --> 00:43:38,280 by 200 basis point it got to the Natural 1057 00:43:36,318 --> 00:43:39,519 rate we're back at output equal to 1058 00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:42,200 Natural rate of output what is happening 1059 00:43:39,519 --> 00:43:42,199 to inflation 1060 00:43:43,800 --> 00:43:48,720 here so now we're back at the natural 1061 00:43:46,318 --> 00:43:51,239 what is happening to 1062 00:43:48,719 --> 00:43:53,480 inflation well this diagram tells you 1063 00:43:51,239 --> 00:43:55,879 something very specific it says it's not 1064 00:43:53,480 --> 00:43:58,440 changing so now your inflation at least 1065 00:43:55,880 --> 00:44:00,559 is not changing 1066 00:43:58,440 --> 00:44:03,079 okay so that's 1067 00:44:00,559 --> 00:44:07,800 good at least not Rising here it was 1068 00:44:03,079 --> 00:44:10,160 Rising it's not changing but what is the 1069 00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:12,079 problem inflation not changing when 1070 00:44:10,159 --> 00:44:15,480 you're at 9% is not a good outcome for 1071 00:44:12,079 --> 00:44:18,559 the FED want 2% not 1072 00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:20,318 9% okay so they when you have this 1073 00:44:18,559 --> 00:44:22,400 modification you need to do more than 1074 00:44:20,318 --> 00:44:24,639 that you know because you need to bring 1075 00:44:22,400 --> 00:44:26,720 expected inflation down so you need to 1076 00:44:24,639 --> 00:44:29,239 overshoot a Fed that finds itself with 1077 00:44:26,719 --> 00:44:32,118 9% inflation and has expected inflation 1078 00:44:29,239 --> 00:44:34,358 and anchor needs to be inflation much 1079 00:44:32,119 --> 00:44:35,720 lower so needs to raise interest in the 1080 00:44:34,358 --> 00:44:37,519 short run much higher than the natural 1081 00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:39,919 rate of interest rate so it gets 1082 00:44:37,519 --> 00:44:41,440 negative inflation here so you can bring 1083 00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:45,920 the 9% back to 1084 00:44:41,440 --> 00:44:48,880 2% no so I have to generate a minus 7% 1085 00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:51,240 here and to generate a minus 7% here I 1086 00:44:48,880 --> 00:44:52,760 need to bring output much below the 1087 00:44:51,239 --> 00:44:55,519 natural rate of output I need to cause a 1088 00:44:52,760 --> 00:44:57,760 big recession to do that and that's the 1089 00:44:55,519 --> 00:45:00,119 reason the bank central banks don't want 1090 00:44:57,760 --> 00:45:03,240 to be in this scenario because with this 1091 00:45:00,119 --> 00:45:05,280 of inflation if expected inflation 1092 00:45:03,239 --> 00:45:06,959 becomes an anchor then there's no way 1093 00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:09,000 around that the FED will have to cause a 1094 00:45:06,960 --> 00:45:11,079 big recession to get out of inflationary 1095 00:45:09,000 --> 00:45:14,000 problem 1096 00:45:11,079 --> 00:45:15,760 okay contrast that with a case in which 1097 00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:17,838 the market the expected inflation is not 1098 00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:19,839 equal to lag inflation but is equal to 1099 00:45:17,838 --> 00:45:23,119 whatever the FED tells them is the long 1100 00:45:19,838 --> 00:45:25,719 run average 2% so now suppose that 1101 00:45:23,119 --> 00:45:28,800 therefore rather than having here Pi 1102 00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:33,799 minus one I have that Target Pi Bar 1103 00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:36,839 which is 2% so yeah we got to 9% but for 1104 00:45:33,800 --> 00:45:39,440 the FED to go back to say the FED would 1105 00:45:36,838 --> 00:45:41,279 say whoop I mess up you know clearly set 1106 00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:43,599 a real interest that was way too low and 1107 00:45:41,280 --> 00:45:45,519 so I end up with 9% inflation but if 1108 00:45:43,599 --> 00:45:48,280 credibility is maintained and still 1109 00:45:45,519 --> 00:45:49,719 people expect 2% in the medium run then 1110 00:45:48,280 --> 00:45:51,920 that means that the FED doesn't need to 1111 00:45:49,719 --> 00:45:54,439 cause a recession to bring inflation 1112 00:45:51,920 --> 00:45:57,559 back to the normal level it just needs 1113 00:45:54,440 --> 00:46:00,480 to bring output to a level equal to 1114 00:45:57,559 --> 00:46:03,319 potential out so it just need to raise 1115 00:46:00,480 --> 00:46:06,679 interest to RN to the Natural rate of 1116 00:46:03,318 --> 00:46:08,119 the r star not to our Star Plus 1117 00:46:06,679 --> 00:46:12,000 something in order to have this 1118 00:46:08,119 --> 00:46:13,640 inflation in the short okay and we're 1119 00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:14,800 there at this moment in the verge of 1120 00:46:13,639 --> 00:46:18,039 these two worlds we have been 1121 00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:20,960 alternating between the two worlds still 1122 00:46:18,039 --> 00:46:22,679 more biased towards the good World in 1123 00:46:20,960 --> 00:46:25,000 which really the FED doesn't need to 1124 00:46:22,679 --> 00:46:26,399 cause a the need the FED needs to slow 1125 00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:29,199 down the economy because it still need 1126 00:46:26,400 --> 00:46:31,760 to bring out put down to YN but that's a 1127 00:46:29,199 --> 00:46:33,358 small change in practice all these 1128 00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:35,480 things are growing over time it just 1129 00:46:33,358 --> 00:46:39,440 means that the economy grows at a lower 1130 00:46:35,480 --> 00:46:40,519 pace for a few quarters okay but it's 1131 00:46:39,440 --> 00:46:42,559 very different to have to bring 1132 00:46:40,519 --> 00:46:45,000 temporarily output down here because for 1133 00:46:42,559 --> 00:46:46,359 that you need to sort of bring the 1134 00:46:45,000 --> 00:46:48,760 growth has to become 1135 00:46:46,358 --> 00:46:52,440 negative for some period of time in 1136 00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:54,480 order to bring inflation 1137 00:46:52,440 --> 00:46:58,480 down 1138 00:46:54,480 --> 00:46:58,480 good so 1139 00:46:58,599 --> 00:47:04,200 big lessons from uh this part is that as 1140 00:47:01,519 --> 00:47:06,000 I said before in the M run so so I 1141 00:47:04,199 --> 00:47:07,358 haven't changed at I haven't changed any 1142 00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:09,039 of the two models I told you what was 1143 00:47:07,358 --> 00:47:11,838 the model of the short run the slm 1144 00:47:09,039 --> 00:47:13,079 that's still true here I told you then 1145 00:47:11,838 --> 00:47:15,039 what was the model of the natural rate 1146 00:47:13,079 --> 00:47:16,559 of unemployment and all that and that 1147 00:47:15,039 --> 00:47:17,920 there we didn't have any monetary policy 1148 00:47:16,559 --> 00:47:19,760 or anything like that we we look at what 1149 00:47:17,920 --> 00:47:20,960 happened in the labor market and we 1150 00:47:19,760 --> 00:47:25,680 determin the natural rate of an 1151 00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:27,440 employment and that was it okay so so 1152 00:47:25,679 --> 00:47:29,078 the medium run here is when we are in 1153 00:47:27,440 --> 00:47:32,000 that world which has nothing to do with 1154 00:47:29,079 --> 00:47:34,440 monetary policy it has all to do with 1155 00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:36,760 real variables okay what is a n what is 1156 00:47:34,440 --> 00:47:38,240 a equilibrium long-ter real interest 1157 00:47:36,760 --> 00:47:40,839 rate what is a natural rate of 1158 00:47:38,239 --> 00:47:45,399 unemployment things of that 1159 00:47:40,838 --> 00:47:48,119 kind um but monetary policy what does do 1160 00:47:45,400 --> 00:47:50,680 is certainly determine in the short run 1161 00:47:48,119 --> 00:47:52,880 equilibrium output and but in the medium 1162 00:47:50,679 --> 00:47:54,399 run it's is determines what is the 1163 00:47:52,880 --> 00:47:55,720 nominal interest rate equilibrium 1164 00:47:54,400 --> 00:47:58,920 nominal interest rate and the level of 1165 00:47:55,719 --> 00:48:01,639 inflation because the economy will have 1166 00:47:58,920 --> 00:48:05,400 a real interest rate which is the rst 1167 00:48:01,639 --> 00:48:07,598 star and RN the economy has RN but the 1168 00:48:05,400 --> 00:48:10,280 fed and the FED will not get to pick 1169 00:48:07,599 --> 00:48:12,599 what RN is the only thing that the FED 1170 00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:14,280 will get to pick in the medium run is 1171 00:48:12,599 --> 00:48:16,519 what is a nominal interest rate that is 1172 00:48:14,280 --> 00:48:19,440 consistent with that RN because supposed 1173 00:48:16,519 --> 00:48:22,679 the RN is say 1174 00:48:19,440 --> 00:48:25,318 2% if the if the economy ends up having 1175 00:48:22,679 --> 00:48:27,598 3% inflation on average that means that 1176 00:48:25,318 --> 00:48:29,159 the nominal interest r rate for the long 1177 00:48:27,599 --> 00:48:32,280 run is going to have to be 1178 00:48:29,159 --> 00:48:33,759 5% is instead that economy has 2% 1179 00:48:32,280 --> 00:48:35,640 inflation average then that means that 1180 00:48:33,760 --> 00:48:38,720 the the long run nominal interest rate 1181 00:48:35,639 --> 00:48:40,159 will be 4% so monetary policy affects 1182 00:48:38,719 --> 00:48:42,118 the nominal interest rate nominal 1183 00:48:40,159 --> 00:48:43,358 variables in the M run but not the real 1184 00:48:42,119 --> 00:48:45,440 variables the real variables are 1185 00:48:43,358 --> 00:48:47,880 determined by the real sector and that's 1186 00:48:45,440 --> 00:48:50,760 often refer as the neutrality of money 1187 00:48:47,880 --> 00:48:52,798 in the medium run and the long run money 1188 00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:54,400 tends to be neutral and that's that's 1189 00:48:52,798 --> 00:48:56,838 what it means 1190 00:48:54,400 --> 00:48:58,599 that real variables are determined by 1191 00:48:56,838 --> 00:49:00,759 something entirely different but in the 1192 00:48:58,599 --> 00:49:03,359 short run monetary policy is the main 1193 00:49:00,760 --> 00:49:06,040 game game in town and in the medium run 1194 00:49:03,358 --> 00:49:08,400 it's just about inflation it's not about 1195 00:49:06,039 --> 00:49:11,159 real 1196 00:49:08,400 --> 00:49:16,599 activity 1197 00:49:11,159 --> 00:49:16,598 um Let me let me stop here
