| Tiivistelmä: | Do variations in consumer expectations lead to changes in business-cycle durations? Intuitively, the answer is the affirmative. In this study it is postulated that expectations are self-fulfilling; optimistic sentiments postpone cyclical peaks and promote cyclical troughs, and pessimistic sentiments result in the opposite combination. First, it is shown that the hypothesis that consumer expectations do not Granger-cause cyclical duration is rejected. |
