Determinantes de las expectivas de inflación en Uruguay. El estudio busca determinar los factores que explican las expectativas de los agentes de inflación en Uruguay. También analiza el grado de racionalidad de los agentes al formular sus expectativas de inflación. Actualmente me encuentro desarrollando dos documentos sobre el tema. Uno sobre expectativas de inflación y nivel de atención y otro sobre expectativas y sobreprecisión.
