Abstract: This chapter reviews the empirical evidence on price stickiness in the euro area. We provide an overview of the different sources of granular consumer and producer price data now available in the euro area. We document new stylized facts on price adjustment in the euro area over the last 20 years. We first present results on the frequency and size of price adjustment in the cross-section dimension. Then we describe some results on the evolution of price stickiness over time. We also derive some implications for the micro-foundations of macro models, discussing the consistency of available evidence with predictions of state- and time-dependent models.
