摘要：Infrequent price changes at the rm level are now well documented in the literature. However, a number of issues remain partly unaddressed. This paper contributes to the literature on price stickiness by investigating the lags of price adjustments to dierent types of shocks. We nd that adjustment lags to cost and demand shocks vary with rm characteristics, namely the rm’s cost structure, the type of pricing policy, and the type of good. We also document that rms react asymmetrically to demand and cost shocks, as well as to positive and negative shocks, and that the degree and direction of the asymmetry varies across rms.
