Resumo: This paper examines the predictability of the Brazilian aggregate consumption growth, taking into account four factors: expected returns on assets (intertemporal substitution); anticipated growth rates in both income and credit (rule-of-thumb behavior and liquidity constraints); lagged consumption growth rate (habit formation). To accomplish such task, we investigate the presence of weak instruments, and apply suitable econometric tools to handle it. The findings suggest that estimations are plagued by weak instruments, and the point estimates suggest that growth rates in income and credit are relevant predictability factors. Finally, valid (robust) confidence intervals suggest that income growth rate and/or credit growth rate have significant predictive power for the Brazilian growth rate in consumption.

Para realizar essa tarefa, nós investigamos a presença de instrumentos fracos e utilizamos ferramentas econométricas adequadas para lidar com este problema. Os resultados sugerem que o problema de instrumento fracos está presente e as estimativas pontuais sugerem que as taxas de crescimento da renda e do crédito são fatores relevantes para a previsibilidade do consumo. Por fim, intervalos de confiança robustos sugerem que a taxa de crescimento da renda e/ou crédito tem poder preditivo relevante para a taxa de cresimento do consumo agregado brasileiro.EGV EPGE2023-12-14info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArticlestextoArtigosapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/rbe/article/view/85603Revista Brasileira de Economia; Vol. 77 No. 4 (2023): OUT -DEZRevista Brasileira de Economia; v. 77 n. 4 (2023): OUT -DEZ1806-91340034-7140reponame:Revista Brasileira de Economia (Online)instname:Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)instacron:FGVporhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/rbe/article/view/85603/85031BrasilCopyright (c) 2023 Revista Brasileira de Economiainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessEndo, MarcosGomes, Fabrio2023-12-19T17:34:46Zoai:ojs.periodicos.fgv.br:article/85603Revistahttps://periodicos.fgv.br/rbe/https://periodicos.fgv.br/rbe/oai||rbe@fgv.br1806-91340034-7140opendoar:2024-03-06T13:03:54.256647Revista Brasileira de Economia (Online) - Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)true
