Abstract

First off, we conduct a cointegration analysis for alternative core inflation measures offered by Cihan and Malatyalı (1999) on total inflation of Turkey. We observe that while some measures display the desired properties some do not. However, all those series display strong common deterministic trend. Additionally, we have tested the alternative measures of core inflation against the money growth.
