Abstract

PurposeTo investigate whether monetary volatility in the US exerts any asymmetric impact on output volatility over the period 1974‐2002.Design/methodology/approachFor the empirical purposes, the analysis makes use of the multi‐variable GARCH (MVGARCH), which allows not only the presence of volatility clustering but also the presence of asymmetries in that volatility clustering.FindingsThe empirical findings suggest that money supply volatility exerts a significant asymmetric influence on output volatility, i.e. the variance of output changes more due to positive changes than negative changes of money supply volatility.Originality/valueThe paper investigates, for the first time, the presence of any asymmetric impact of the volatility of money on the volatility of output in the case of the US.
