Negative misalignment = foreign currency cheap vs. PPP (USD rich).
*One or more pairs show an AR(1) coefficient on misalignment โฅ1 over the full sample (no finite half-life) โ the most pronounced PPP breakdowns in G10.
AUD/NZD run on quarterly CPI (no monthly series exists for either); half-life units differ accordingly (qtr vs. mo).
Adjusted Misalignment is annual (year shown) โ CHF, NOK have no IMF trade-price data, SEK's has a reporting gap since 2021, so all three are excluded from the adjusted variant.

Derived algebraically from each leg's USD-based PPP model above (no separate data fetch) โ misalignment nets out the shared USD numeraire, so e.g. EURJPY misalignment = EUR misalignment โ JPY misalignment. Negative = foreign currency cheap vs. JPY relative to PPP.
