摘要
We analyze the influence of US monetary policy on commodity price volatility. Expected target rate changes and communications decrease volatility, whereas target rate surprises and unorthodox measures increase it. The "calming" effect of communication is reduced during the financial crisis. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
