Living Standards in St. Louis and the Eighth Federal Reserve District: Let’s Get Real
Gascon, Charles S.; Kliesen, Kevin L.; Coughlin, Cletus C.
(2017)
Recently, the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) has developed the Regional Price Parities (RPPs), spatial price indexes that allow for comparison of cost of living differences across various geographic areas. By construction, RPPs compare the average price level for a region with the national average. Accordingly, unlike traditional, temporal price indexes, RPPs can be used to adjust nominal incomes for cost of living differences, thereby allowing for more accurate comparison of living standards across geographic areas. When adjusting incomes in this manner, the authors find that, despite ...

Kliesen, Kevin L.
(2017)
Following a rather tepid showing in the first quarter of 2017, the U.S. economy expanded at a modestly faster rate of growth in the second quarter.

Risk Management in Monetary Policymaking: The 1994-95 Fed Tightening Episode
Kliesen, Kevin L.
(2023-12)
The 1994-95 Fed tightening episode was one of the most notable in the Fed’s history. First, the FOMC raised the policy rate by 300 basis points in a year, even though headline and core inflation were trending lower prior to the liftoff that occurred in February 1994. Second, the Fed’s actions caught the Treasury market by surprise, triggering a sharp decline in long-term bond prices.

This article presents some ...
