Our paper uses UK micro data to study the relative mispricing of inflation-linked bonds, nominal bonds and inflation swaps - one of the largest examples of the violation of the law of one price (Fleckenstein, Longstaff, and @HannoLustig , 2014). bankofengland.co.uk/-/media/…

The trading activity of LDIs and pension funds (especially their linker flows) can explain this relative mispricing. Hedge funds respond to mispricing but it doesn't constitute arbitrage – they adjust their bond portfolios appropriately, but don't hedge it with inflation swaps.

1/8 This is a great discussion, so I shall continue. Second round answer to @IvanWerning. I like very much the Werning-Lorenzoni framework. dropbox.com/s/pbsurtd5onvn2b… One of its merits is indeed to show that thinking in terms of distributional conflict is totally mainstream.
