• Business cycle and monetary policy analysis in a structural sticky price model of the euro area 

      Casares Polo, Miguel Upna Orcid (2001)   Documento de trabajo / Lan gaiak  OpenAccess
      Structural models are a powerful tool for business cycle and monetary policy analysis because they are assumed to be invariant to either policy changes or external shocks. In this paper, we derive a neoclassical monetary ...

      Casares Polo, Miguel Upna Orcid (2001)   Documento de trabajo / Lan gaiak  OpenAccess

    • A dynamic model of COVID-19: contagion and implications of isolation enforcement 

      Casares Polo, Miguel Upna Orcid; Khan, Hashmat (2020)   Documento de trabajo / Lan gaiak  OpenAccess
      We present a dynamic model that produces day-to-day changes in key variables due to the COVID-19 contagion: the number of ever infected people, currently infected, deaths, healed, and infected people who require hospitalization. ...
    • Entry and exit in recent US business cycles 

      Casares Polo, Miguel Upna Orcid (2015)   Documento de trabajo / Lan gaiak  OpenAccess
      I show evidence indicating that the variability of the total number of business units (establishments) has significantly increased in recent US business cycles, accounting for nearly 2/3 of real GDP fluctuations during the ...
    • An estimated new-Keynesian model with unemployment as excess supply of labor 

      Casares Polo, Miguel Upna Orcid; Moreno, Antonio Upna; Vázquez, Jesús (2010)   Documento de trabajo / Lan gaiak  OpenAccess
      As one alternative to search frictions, wage stickiness is introduced in a New-Keynesian model to generate endogenous unemployment fluctuations due to mismatches between labor supply and labor demand. The effects on an ...
    • Firm entry under financial frictions 

      Casares Polo, Miguel Upna Orcid; Poutineau, Jean-Christophe (2011)   Documento de trabajo / Lan gaiak  OpenAccess
      Introducing both endogenous firm entry and a requirement for external finance in a general-equilibrium model leads to three main results. First, the financial constraint has contractionary effects on both equity investment ...

    • Long run analysis in alternative optimizing monetary models 

      Casares Polo, Miguel Upna Orcid (2001)   Documento de trabajo / Lan gaiak  OpenAccess
      This paper explores the transmission channel from monetary variables to real variables in the steady-rate equilibria of various neoclassical optimizing models with money. The existence of superneutrality is rejected for ...
    • Monopolistic competition, sticky prices, and the minimal mark-up in steady state 

      Casares Polo, Miguel Upna Orcid (2007)   Documento de trabajo / Lan gaiak  OpenAccess
      This note reports the rate of inflation that minimizes the mark-up of prices over marginal costs in the steady-state solution of a monopolistic competition model with either Taylor (1980) or Calvo (1983) pricing. The minimal ...
    • A new Keynesian analysis of industrial employment fluctuations 

      Casares Polo, Miguel Upna Orcid (2009)   Documento de trabajo / Lan gaiak  OpenAccess
