Note(s): (1) ***, **, * Indicate significance at 1%, 5 and 10%, respectively. (2). Figures in bracket “()” are t-value (3). In models 1 and 2, output volatility is the dependent variable. (4). Inflation volatility is the dependent variable in models 3 and 4. The CUMSUM and CUMSUM Sq graphs are available upon request
