【摘要】This paper quantifies an important spillover of inflation expectation between China and US. In contrast to previous literature, we model China and US term structure of inflation expectation jointly in a factor-augmented VAR with Nelson-Siegel form. The model allows us to extract latent factors of inflation expectation and to identify China and US specific inflation expectation shocks. Our main result suggests a bidirectional but quantitatively asymmetric international expectation spillover. Additionally, the spillover of inflation expectation increases during times of macroeconomic stress. The finding contributes to the discussion about global inflation and a weakening control of inflation by central banks. The expectation channel in this paper also suggests that the implementation of average inflation targeting by the US Federal Reserve could be an important factor in worldwide inflation dynamics.
