Book Synopsis Why Can't You Afford a Home? by : Josh Ryan-Collins
Download or read book Why Can't You Afford a Home? written by Josh Ryan-Collins and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2018-11-26 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the Western world, a whole generation is being priced out of the housing market. For millions of people, particularly millennials, the basic goal of acquiring decent, affordable accommodation is a distant dream. Leading economist Josh Ryan-Collins argues that to understand this crisis, we must examine a crucial paradox at the heart of modern capitalism. The interaction of private home ownership and a lightly regulated commercial banking system leads to a feedback cycle. Unlimited credit and money flows into an inherently finite supply of property, which causes rising house prices, declining home ownership, rising inequality and debt, stagnant growth and financial instability. Radical reforms are needed to break the cycle. This engaging and topical book will be essential reading for anyone who wants to understand why they can’t find an affordable home, and what we can do about it.
Book Synopsis Targeting Inflation by : Dimitri B. Papadimitriou
Download or read book Targeting Inflation written by Dimitri B. Papadimitriou and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most observers of the Federal Reserve are willing to credit it with success at achieving low and stable rates of inflation. Many do not even question that the Fed's primary concern should be fighting inflation. However, the targets for monetary policy adopted by the Fed in recent years have not proven to be closely correlated with inflation, and commentators criticize the Fed's apparent predilection to choose whichever target appears to be pointing in the "right" direction. In the search for a target that seems to be closely correlated with inflation, some theorists and policymakers have advocated the use of a price index--most notably the consumer price index (CPI)--as both the target and the goal of monetary policy. Executive Director Dimitri B. Papadimitriou and Research Associate L. Randall Wray argue in this Public Policy Brief that the CPI deviates in several important respects from an ideal theoretical measure of inflation. An ideal measure would, first, accurately reflect market-caused price increases and, second, potentially be under the control of monetary policy. The authors show that the CPI fails in both respects. Papadimitriou and Wray attempt to determine which components of the CPI have tended to pull up the index and to analyze the avenues through which monetary policy might attenuate the rate of price increase of these individual components. Their investigation is consistent with recent concerns over apparent biases in the CPI when used as a cost-of-living index, but their analysis extends beyond such concerns; they also focus on how and why the CPI is not appropriate as a target or goal of monetary policy because the transmission mechanisms through which monetary policy is thought to affect the CPI are tenuous at best. The authors argue that this is due in part to the fact that components of the CPI involve "imputed" values that are largely unconnected with those fundamental market forces likely to be influenced by Fed policy. Papadimitriou and Wray note that although "it is beyond the scope of this Public Policy Brief to examine all of the components of the CPI, we are convinced that use of any index of price changes will be fraught with difficulties similar to those outlined here." The anomalies they find in the CPI's housing component data are not unique; rather, they "suspect there are other important anomalies reflected in the CPI that make it a poor measure of inflation to be used in monetary policy formation." Therefore, careful reconsideration of an alternative ultimate target, such as the rate of economic growth or the unemployment rate, is warranted. However, given the uncertainties involved in the choice of such ultimate targets, the authors think it would be premature for the Fed to commit to any particular goal, especially one of "price stability." Moreover, because the evidence presented here sheds doubt on how central banks might fight inflation or if they can reduce it, and because there is no credible evidence that a moderate rise in interest rates causes smooth curtailment of spending plans, the authors conclude that this is an inappropriate time to amend the Employment Act of 1946 and the Humphrey-Hawkins Act of 1978 and to require the Fed to focus on price stability and to ignore other important economic indicators of our nation's well-being.

Book Synopsis Measurement of Rent Inflation by : Jonathan McCarthy
Download or read book Measurement of Rent Inflation written by Jonathan McCarthy and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2011 with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a print on demand edition of a hard to find publication. Rent, paid either to a landlord or to oneself as an owner-occupant, has a large weight in the CPI and in the personal consumption expenditures deflator. The authors describe how the Bureau of Labor Stat. (BLS) estimates tenant rent and owners¿ equivalent rent. They then estimate alternative inflation rates for tenant rent and owners¿ equivalent rent based on Amer. Housing Survey data, following BLS methodology as closely as possible. The authors¿ alternative tenant rent inflation series is generally consistent with the corresponding BLS series. However, their alternative owners¿ equivalent rent inflation series is consistently lower than the corresponding BLS series by an amount large enough to have a significant effect on the overall inflation rate.

Book Synopsis Price Expectations and the U.S. Housing Boom by : Pascal Towbin
Download or read book Price Expectations and the U.S. Housing Boom written by Pascal Towbin and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2015-07-30 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1996 and 2006 the U.S. has experienced an unprecedented boom in house prices. As it has proven to be difficult to explain the large price increase by observable fundamentals, many observers have emphasized the role of speculation, i.e. expectations about future price developments. The argument is, however, often indirect: speculation is treated as a deviation from a benchmark. The present paper aims to identify house price expectation shocks directly. To that purpose, we estimate a VAR model for the U.S. and use sign restrictions to identify house price expectation, housing supply, housing demand, and mortgage rate shocks. House price expectation shocks are the most important driver of the boom and account for about 30 percent of the real house price increase. We also construct a model-based measure of exogenous changes in price expectations and show that this measure leads a survey-based measure of changes in house price expectations. Our main identification scheme leaves open whether expectation shifts are realistic or unrealistic. In extensions, we provide evidence that price expectation shifts during the boom were primarily unrealistic and were only marginally affected by realistic expectations about future fundamentals.
