Macroeconomics: Short-Run Aggregate Supply Curve and Inflation Shocks
Aggregate demand shocks induce short-run fluctuations in both inflation and real growth rates due to nominal wage and price stickiness within the Quantity Theory framework ($g = \pi + y$). Over time, adaptive expectations regarding future prices cause shifts in the Short-Run Aggregate Supply curve until the economy converges back to its Long-Run potential output level. This mechanism delineates the distinction between temporary deviations from trend growth caused by demand-side disturbances and permanent changes driven solely by supply-side factors.
