The Turkey-US commodity trade and the asymmetric J-curve

Abstract: Unlike past studies, recent studies try to separate currency appreciations from depreciations and show that indeed, the effects of exchange rate changes on the trade balance are asymmetric. We add to this literature by considering the response of the trade balance of 45 industries that trade between Turkey and the USA We find that the real lira-dollar rate has short-run asymmetric effects in 28 out of 45 industries. Short-run asymmetric effects translate into the long-run asymmetric effects in only 13 industri… Show more

“…This is a discovery that has not been reported in the trade literature on Korea yet. Further, this finding is consistent with the outcomes of Bahmani‐Oskooee and Harvey (2018), Bahmani‐Oskooee and Nasir (2020), Bahmani‐Oskooee and Fariditavana (2020) and Bahmani‐Oskooee and Karamelikli (2021). For example, Bahmani‐Oskooee and Nasir (2020) report that the USD asymmetrically affects the U.S. bilateral trade with the UK.…”

“…For example, Bahmani‐Oskooee and Nasir (2020) report that the USD asymmetrically affects the U.S. bilateral trade with the UK. Bahmani‐Oskooee and Karamelikli (2021) reveal that the majority of Turkey's commodities exported to and imported from the U.S. responds asymmetrically as the exchange rate fluctuates. These studies also generally substantiate our discovery that the asymmetries of exchange rates appear to be a short‐run phenomenon.…”

“…Therefore, there is no such J-Curve effect. Our findings are consistent with the results of Karamelikli (2016), Bahmani-Oskooee & Durmaz (2016), Bahmani-Oskooee & Karamelikli (2020). Some previous studies pointed out that when using data with aggregation bias, the long-run effect is difficult to detect and recommended using Turkish trade flows at the commodity level with each major partner (M. Bahmani-Oskooee & Karamelikli, 2020).…”

“…Their results reveal that the Turkish economy does not display a J-curve pattern and the impact of exchange rate on trade balance is insignificant. Bahmani-Oskooee and Karamelikli (2021) examine the Turkey-US commodity trade balance and conclude that the exchange rate has an asymmetric negative short-run impact in 28 out of 45 industries. However, the long-run asymmetric positive impact is detected in 13 industries only.…”
