Long-Term Oil Price Forecasts: A New Perspective on Oil and the Macroeconomy

Abstract: We examine how future real GDP growth relates to changes in the forecasted longterm average of discounted real oil prices and to changes in unanticipated fluctuations of real oil prices around the forecasts. Forecasts are conducted using a state-space oil market model, in which global real economic activity and real oil prices share a common stochastic trend. Changes in unanticipated fluctuations and changes in the forecasted longterm average of discounted real oil prices sum to real oil price changes. We find… Show more

“…Extrapolating such a relationship to other developed and developing economies, and since oil is a factor production in global output and is traded globally, global real economic activity is a reasonable proxy for oil demand. Kilian (2009) and Miller and Ni (2011) also made this argument, the latter noting empirical evidence supporting cointegration of linearly detrended log real oil prices (ROIL) with linearly detrended RGDP since 1986.…”

“…These abnormal increases in oil prices enticed researchers to quantify and assess the impact of rising oil prices not just on domestic prices and output, but also other macro variables. The list of studies that have assessed the impact of oil prices on domestic production and inflation includes: Gisser and Goodwin (1986), Lardic and Mignon (2008), Chen (2009), Arouri and Nguyen (2010), Aguiar-Contraria and Soares (2011), Kilian and Vigfusson (2011), Hamilton (2011), Miller andNi (2011), Serletis and Elder (2011), Herrera et al (2011), Engemann et al (2011), Valadkhani et al (2014, Aloui and Dakhlaoui (2015), and Valadkhani and Smyth (2017). The main consensus of these studies is that indeed, higher oil prices have contributed to rising prices and a declining domestic production in oil importing countries.…”

“…He et al [95] presented two forecasting models, one based on a vector error correction mechanism and the other based on a transfer function framework with the range taken as a driver variable, for forecasting the daily highs and lows, showing that both of these models offer significant advantages over the naïve random walk and univariate ARIMA models in terms of out-of-sample forecast accuracy. Miller and Ni [96] examined how future real GDP growth relates to changes in the forecasted long-term average of discounted real oil prices and to changes in unanticipated fluctuations of real oil prices around the forecasts. Forecasts were conducted using a state-space oil market model, in which global real economic activity and real oil prices share a common stochastic trend.…”
