| The paper revisits the 'oil price - expected inflation' nexus in the U.S. by using as a novelty the wavelet. The study covers 08/08/2005-14/04/2022.
The main findings show that in the 'smooth' economic periods, the oil price is an important 'signal' for expected inflation on long-run. Otherwise, expected inflation influences the oil price on medium-run, during financial crises and major monetary adjustments. Pandemic or war crises have no notable implications on the 'oil price - expected inflation' nexus, other factors being more prominent.
