Instead of relying on the inflation risk premium, the ambiguity-averse agent faces different amounts of Knightian uncertainty in the long run versus the short run; hence the model-implied nominal and real short rate expectations are upward-sloping under the agent's worst-case equilibrium beliefs. The expectations hypothesis roughly holds under investors' worst-case beliefs. The difference between the worst-case scenario and the true distribution makes realized excess returns on long-term bonds predictable. <p> <p> Data and code for peer-reviewed article published in American Economic Review: Insights.$$7Abstract 000004224 540__ $$aCreative Commons Attribution 4.0 International$$uhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode$$fCC-BY-4.0 000004224 7001_ $$aZhao, Guihai$$7Personal$$uBank of Canada$$3https://ror.org/05cc98565$$5ROR 000004224 791__ $$aJournalArticle$$eIsSupplementTo$$iReproducibility package is associated with peer-reviewed article$$w10.1257/aeri.20190155$$c2020$$dAmerican Economic Review: Insights (American Economic Association)$$tAmbiguity, Nominal Bond Yields, and Real Bond Yields$$2DOI$$j2$$k2$$q177$$o192 000004224 791__ $$aText$$eIsSupplementTo$$iAssociated article is first published as Bank of Canada Staff Working Paper$$w10.34989/swp-2018-24$$c2018$$dBank of Canada$$tAmbiguity, Nominal Bond Yields and Real Bond Yields$$2DOI$$jStaff Working Paper$$k2018-24 000004224 8301_ $$aReproducibility Package 000004224 8301_ $$aEnsemble de données pour la reproductibilité des résultats de recherche 000004224 909CO $$ooai:www.oar-rao.bank-banque-canada.ca:4224$$pbibliographic 000004224 937__ $$aZhao, G$$b2020$$cAmbiguity, Nominal Bond Yields, and Real Bond Yields$$dAmerican Economic Review: Insights$$e2$$f2$$ghttps://doi.org/10.1257/aeri.20190155 000004224 980__ $$aStaff Research 000004224 980__ $$aRDM 000004224 980__ $$aResearch Reproducibility Packages 000004224 991__ $$aPublic
