Abstract
RESUMEN: La tendencia observada desde 1998 a la desinflación mundial y a que las inflaciones nacionales se estabilicen en niveles bajos obedece al comportamiento de la inflación de Estados Unidos. Esto es lo que podemos decir a la luz de resultados econométricos con cifras de frecuencia trimestral de Estados Unidos y de otros 30 países de varios continentes. En efecto, estos resultados son favorables a tal hipótesis y desfavorables a hipótesis alternativas que harían énfasis en las políticas monetarias nacionales o choques deflacionistas de origen “real” (no monetario). Adicionalmente, la evidencia empírica indica que, en general, las políticas monetarias nacionales han sido laxas, en el siguiente sentido: los hacedores de la política monetaria han aprovechado las fuerzas desinflacionarias (o deflacionarias) provenientes de Estados Unidos para ejecutar políticas laxas previendo algunos beneficios de esto (sobre la actividad económica u otros) sin temer que se haga evidente su costo en términos de una mayor inflación. ABSTRACT: The trend observed since 1998 towards global disinflation and for national inflation rates to stabilize at low levels is due to the behavior of inflation in the United States according to the econometric exercises reported in this paper with a quarterly frequency data from the United States and 30 other countries. Additionally, the empirical evidence indicates that, in general, national monetary policies have been lax, in the following sense: monetary policy makers have taken advantage of disinflationary (or deflationary) forces coming from the United States to execute lax policies anticipating some benefits from those without fearing that its cost in terms of higher inflation will become evident.
