“…We discuss these kinds of limits on fiscal policy in Bianchi and Melosi (2019) and provide evidence for their empirical relevance in Bianchi, Faccini, and Melosi (2022). In Bianchi, Fisher, and Melosi (2021), we show that the macroeconomic effects of the ARPA fiscal stimulus are critically affected by agents' expectations about the post-ZLB policy mix. While in this paper, we formally estimate this post-ARPA change in beliefs, in that short paper, which was written right after the implementation of the ARPA fiscal stimulus, we showed that it was hard for standard Phillips curve models to predict any significant increase in inflation unless private sector's beliefs adjust owing to the need to stabilize the growing fiscal imbalance.…”

“…Additionally, avoiding support options such as stimulus checks removes disposable personal income, which feeds inflation for a postpandemic situation. [39][40][41] Reopening all businesses and getting back to a pre-pandemic economy helps to balance demand and supply, where imbalances are likely to increase inflation. [6][7][8]31 This study has some limitations.…”

“…39 For instance, Jorda et al 39 found that government stimulus checks distributed to households during the pandemic contributed to a higher inflation rate in the USA. Additionally, Barnichon et al 40 and Bianchi et al 41 have conducted research, showing the effects of COVID-19 pandemic on inflation.…”

“…Nevertheless, global supply chain distortions persist, and continuous waves of COVID-19 infections continue to disrupt service-oriented industries. There are many reasons to expect Inflation to be higher than usual (Barnichon, Oliveira, & Shapiro, 2021). In this Economic Letter, the authors have widened the recent analysis with an international comparison.…”
