The results allow us todraw conclusions about the anchoring of inflation expectations in the two currencyareas before and during the crisis. We find a somewhat stronger anchoring of inflationexpectations in the euro area than in the United States. During the crisis, thedegree of anchoring of inflation expectations did not change in the euro area, butit decreased to some extent in the United States
