This study constructs a tractable duopoly model with price stickiness to consider the strategic pricing of duopolistic firms and its implications for monetary policy. Dynamic strategic complementarity, in which an increase in a firm's price increases the optimal price set by the rival firm in the following periods, increases steady-state price and the real effect of monetary policy. However, when temporary sales arise as a mixed strategy, the real effect of monetary policy decreases considerably.
