摘要：New Keynesian open economy models under rational expectations often fail to generate exchange rate volatility and comovement between countries. In this paper, we investigate whether non-rational beliefs can help explain international prices and comovement. In theory, we derive a generalized no-arbitrage condition under arbitrary beliefs, which relaxes standard uncovered interest rate parity (UIP henceforth) condition and implies a different exchange rate dynamics as in rational expectations models. Empirically, models with non-rational beliefs generate higher exchange rate volatility, however, they do not fit data better than rational expectations models when explaining comovement.
