In particular, standard simulation methods are inadequate for modeling inflation dynamics and do not generate uncertainty in long-term average inflation. Furthermore, despite low-frequency regime switching between negative and positive stock–bond correlation regimes, linked to inflation dynamics, standard methods do not incorporate this either. Finally, when markets are undergoing long-term structural changes, modeling choices should be able to integrate the forward-looking expectations of subject matter experts on joint economic and market dynamics. This article describes a simple way of retrofitting these features to an existing simulation engine.
