Shocks on commodity prices and inflation: Dynamic panel data estimations models

This paper examines the effect of shocks in the variation of commodity and energy prices on the inflation rate for a panel of 51 countries with quarterly data during the period I.1996-IV.2020. Different dynamic panel data models are estimated. The results show that a 10% variation in the price of Cr...

description This paper examines the effect of shocks in the variation of commodity and energy prices on the inflation rate for a panel of 51 countries with quarterly data during the period I.1996-IV.2020. Different dynamic panel data models are estimated. The results show that a 10% variation in the price of Crude Oil generates an increase by 0.28% in the inflation rate in the first quarter and a cumulative effect by around 0.5%. Similar effects are observed for Natural Gas: an increase in the Natural Gas price variation by 10% is linked to a rise in the inflation rate of around 0.27% in contemporary terms and to a cumulative effect by 0.5%. A 10% Food inflationary shock is linked to a contemporaneous increase by 0.83% in the inflation rate in the first quarter, accumulating 1.5% in subsequent periods. As a robustness test, a PVAR model is estimated with quarterly data for the same period applied to a balanced panel of 40 countries. The results confirm the previous evidence. In this case, an increase by 10% in the Crude Oil inflation leads to a rise by 0.1% in the inflation rate in the first two quarters, gradually disappearing (the cumulative effect is around 0.5%). A positive shock price by 10% on the variation in the Food produces a higher rate of inflation in the order by 0.6% in the first quarter, which is diluted in subsequent periods. The shocks that affect the Energy and Food inflation have an initial expansive effect on GDP and then turn negative, with a similar dynamic in the case of the effective nominal exchange rate.

Este trabajo examina el efecto de los shocks en la variación de precios de commodities y energía sobre la tasa de inflación para un panel de 51 países con datos trimestrales durante el periodo I.1996-IV.2020. Se estiman diferentes modelos de datos en panel dinámicos, cuyos resultados muestran que una variación del 10 % en el precio del Petróleo Crudo genera un incremento del 0.28 % en la tasa de inflación en el primer trimestre y un efecto acumulativo que ronda el 0.5 %. Efectos similares se observan para Gas Natural: un incremento en la variación del precio del Gas Natural de 10 % se vincula a una suba de la tasa de inflación en torno a 0.27 % en términos contemporáneos, y a un efecto acumulado de 0.5 %. Un shock inflacionario de Alimentos de 10 % se vincula a un aumento contemporáneo en la tasa de inflación de 0.83 % en el primer trimestre, acumulando 1.5 % en periodos posteriores. Como prueba de robustez, se estima un modelo PVAR con datos trimestrales para el mismo período aplicado a un panel balanceado de 40 países. Los resultados confirman la evidencia anterior. En este caso, un aumento del 10% en la variación del precio del Petróleo Crudo genera una suba del 0.1 % en la tasa de inflación en los dos primeros trimestres, desapareciendo gradualmente (el efecto acumulativo ronda el 0.5 %). Un shock positivo sobre la variación del precio de los Alimentos de 10 % produce un incremento en la tasa de inflación en el orden de 0.6 % en el primer trimestre, el cual se diluye en períodos posteriores. Los shocks que afectan la variación de precios de Energía y Alimentos tienen un efecto expansivo inicial sobre el PIB y se vuelven negativos luego, con una dinámica similar en el caso del tipo de cambio nominal efectivo. application/pdf https://ojs.economicas.uba.ar/DT-IIEP/article/view/2798 spa Instituto Interdisciplinario de Economía Política (IIEP UBA-CONICET) https://ojs.economicas.uba.ar/DT-IIEP/article/view/2798/3546 Derechos de autor 2023 IIEP UBA-CONICET Documentos de trabajo del Instituto Interdisciplinario de Economía Política; Núm. 82 (2023): Shocks sobre precios de commodities e inflación.
