Sectoral wage convergence: a nonparametric distributional analysis

Max Dupuy and Mark Schweitzer

No 9520, Working Papers (Old Series) from Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland

Abstract: An examination of the relative shapes of the wage distribution in the U.S. goods-producing and service-producing sectors that uses a nonparametric measure of density overlap to analyze wage differences between the two sectors over time. ; What implications do 21st century monetary innovations bring for holdings of central bank money and standards of value? Emerging technologies such as cybercash, e-cash, and smart cards can be expected to reduce demand for central bank money, but the theoretical framework for monetary policy has not changed.
