We found that the probabilities of indeterminacy are very close to unity. We can thus conclude that the economy is unstable over this period primarily because the long-run inflation rate is in the higher single digits despite the Central Bank’s weak response to inflation. This drove the economy into aggregate instability. © 2022 Bogazici Universitesi.
