We investigate the time series properties of both filtered and unfiltered real exchange rate series produced by DSGE models that feature local currency pricing, home bias, nontraded goods, and incomplete markets. Detrended series produced by several specifications approach the empirically observed volatility, although none of the models generates enough persistence. Conversely, several models produce unfiltered series that possess the same degree of persistence as the data, but none can match its volatility.
⺠We examine the dynamics of real exchange rates (RER) in modern DSGE models. ⺠Model features include home bias, LCP, nontraded goods and incomplete markets. ⺠We study volatility and persistence of these DSGE models relative to data. ⺠None of the basic features we study yields sufficiently volatile RER as in the data. ⺠We find that incomplete markets and nontraded goods yield persistent RER.
