Book Synopsis Interest Rates and Asset Prices by : Ralph Turvey
Download or read book Interest Rates and Asset Prices written by Ralph Turvey and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-04-29 with total page 69 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1960, Interest Rates and Asset Prices presents an analysis of the determination of interest rates and asset prices with the help of few simple assumptions. The theory can be regarded either as an alternative to the liquidity preference theory or as an extension of it. Like that theory, it is aggregative and simple, but it is applicable not only to interest rates on government securities but also to yields on real assets. Furthermore, it can be formulated in terms of actually measurable variables, so that it is directly applicable to particular situations. This is demonstrated by a statistical example relating to the average yield on U.S. Government securities in the post- war period. In addition to the main analysis the author discusses the role of financial intermediaries and the structure of interest rates, and there is also a re-examination of the determinants of the transactions demand for money. This is book is an essential read for students of economics.
Book Synopsis On Interest Rates and Asset Prices in Europe by : M. M. G. Fase

The behaviour of bonds, stocks, and investment in art are analyzed, as well as the factors indispensable for a monetary strategy designed to target inflation.
Book Synopsis Asset Prices and Monetary Policy by : John Y. Campbell
Download or read book Asset Prices and Monetary Policy written by John Y. Campbell and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2008-11-15 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economic growth, low inflation, and financial stability are among the most important goals of policy makers, and central banks such as the Federal Reserve are key institutions for achieving these goals. In Asset Prices and Monetary Policy, leading scholars and practitioners probe the interaction of central banks, asset markets, and the general economy to forge a new understanding of the challenges facing policy makers as they manage an increasingly complex economic system. The contributors examine how central bankers determine their policy prescriptions with reference to the fluctuating housing market, the balance of debt and credit, changing beliefs of investors, the level of commodity prices, and other factors. At a time when the public has never been more involved in stocks, retirement funds, and real estate investment, this insightful book will be useful to all those concerned with the current state of the economy.

Book Synopsis Asset Prices, Booms and Recessions by : Willi Semmler
Download or read book Asset Prices, Booms and Recessions written by Willi Semmler and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-06-15 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The financial market melt-down of the years 2007-2009 has posed great challenges for studies on financial economics. This financial economics text focuses on the dynamic interaction of financial markets and economic activity. The financial market to be studied here encompasses the money and bond market, credit market, stock market and foreign exchange market; economic activity includes the actions and interactions of firms, banks, households, governments and countries. The book shows how economic activity affects asset prices and the financial market, and how asset prices and financial market volatility and crises impact economic activity. The book offers extensive coverage of new and advanced topics in financial economics such as the term structure of interest rates, credit derivatives and credit risk, domestic and international portfolio theory, multi-agent and evolutionary approaches, capital asset pricing beyond consumption-based models, and dynamic portfolio decisions. Moreover a completely new section of the book is dedicated to the recent financial market meltdown of the years 2007-2009. Emphasis is placed on empirical evidence relating to episodes of financial instability and financial crises in the U.S. and in Latin American, Asian and Euro-area countries. Overall, the book explains what researchers and practitioners in the financial sector need to know about the financial-real interaction, and what practitioners and policy makers need to know about the financial market.
Book Synopsis Low Interest Rates and High Asset Prices by : Robert J. Shiller
Download or read book Low Interest Rates and High Asset Prices written by Robert J. Shiller and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There has been a widespread perception in the past few years that long-term asset prices are generally high because monetary authorities have effectively kept long-term interest rates, which the market uses to discount cash flows, low. This perception is not accurate. Long-term interest rates have not been especially low. What has changed to produce high asset prices appears instead to be changes in popular economic models that people actually rely on when valuing assets. The public has mostly forgotten the concept of "real interest rate." Money illusion appears to be an important factor to consider.
Book Synopsis Asset Prices and Interest Rates in Cash-in-advance Models by : Alberto Giovannini
Download or read book Asset Prices and Interest Rates in Cash-in-advance Models written by Alberto Giovannini and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper develops a method to solve and simulate cash-in-advance models of money and asset prices. The models are calibrated to US data spanning the period from 1890 to 1987 and are used to study some empirical regularities observed in the US data over this period. The phenomena which are the focus of the paper include the average level of stock returns and returns on nominal bonds, the covariation of realized real interest rates and real asset returns with inflation, and the ability of nominal interest rates to predict inflation and nominal stock returns.
Book Synopsis Global Liquidity and Asset Prices by : Mr.Charles Frederick Kramer
Download or read book Global Liquidity and Asset Prices written by Mr.Charles Frederick Kramer and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1999-12-01 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much recent commentary suggests that global liquidity has influenced financial conditions in the major international markets to an important degree, and that excess liquidity in one financial center can influence financial conditions elsewhere. Little formal research has addressed these issues, however. In this paper, we use three indexes of liquidity (money growth) in the Group of Seven industrial countries to explore the international dimension of the relationship between liquidity and asset returns. Evidence suggests that an increase in G-7 liquidity is consistent with a decline in G-7 real interest rates and an increase in G-7 real stock returns. There is also evidence of liquidity spillovers across countries.
Download or read book Asset Pricing written by John H. Cochrane and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2009-04-11 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the prestigious Paul A. Samuelson Award for scholarly writing on lifelong financial security, John Cochrane's Asset Pricing now appears in a revised edition that unifies and brings the science of asset pricing up to date for advanced students and professionals. Cochrane traces the pricing of all assets back to a single idea--price equals expected discounted payoff--that captures the macro-economic risks underlying each security's value. By using a single, stochastic discount factor rather than a separate set of tricks for each asset class, Cochrane builds a unified account of modern asset pricing. He presents applications to stocks, bonds, and options. Each model--consumption based, CAPM, multifactor, term structure, and option pricing--is derived as a different specification of the discounted factor. The discount factor framework also leads to a state-space geometry for mean-variance frontiers and asset pricing models. It puts payoffs in different states of nature on the axes rather than mean and variance of return, leading to a new and conveniently linear geometrical representation of asset pricing ideas. Cochrane approaches empirical work with the Generalized Method of Moments, which studies sample average prices and discounted payoffs to determine whether price does equal expected discounted payoff. He translates between the discount factor, GMM, and state-space language and the beta, mean-variance, and regression language common in empirical work and earlier theory. The book also includes a review of recent empirical work on return predictability, value and other puzzles in the cross section, and equity premium puzzles and their resolution. Written to be a summary for academics and professionals as well as a textbook, this book condenses and advances recent scholarship in financial economics.
Book Synopsis Asset Prices and the Real Economy by : Forrest Capie
Download or read book Asset Prices and the Real Economy written by Forrest Capie and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-01-15 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recession which many countries experienced in the early 1990s had certain unusual aspects. Most notably, and common to all countries, was the behaviour of asset prices relative to the general price level. In consequence, reasons were sought to explain the special characteristics of the recession and as a result of the behaviour of asset prices attention turned to 'Debt-Deflation Theories' associated in different forms with Keynes and Irving Fisher. The contributors to this volume discuss the significance of debt deflation. Their striking common feature is that, on the evidence presented here, the behaviour of asset prices should not be of great concern to policy makers, or to those attempting to understand economic behaviour. However, residual doubts remain over the Japanese case.
Book Synopsis Inflation, Asset Prices and the Term Structure of Interest Rates in Monetary Economies by : Zhiwu Chen
Download or read book Inflation, Asset Prices and the Term Structure of Interest Rates in Monetary Economies written by Zhiwu Chen and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This article offers a tractable monetary asset pricing model. In monetary economies, the price level, inflation, asset prices, and the real and nominal interest rates have to be determined simultaneously and in relation to each other. This link allows us to relate in closed form each of the dependent entities to the underlying real and monetary variables. Among other features of such economies, inflation can be partially non-monetary and the real and nominal term structures can depend on fundamentally different risk factors. In one extreme, the process followed by the real term structure is independent of that followed by its nominal counterpart.

Book Synopsis Money, Credit and Asset Prices by : G. Pepper
Download or read book Money, Credit and Asset Prices written by G. Pepper and published by Springer. This book was released on 1994-03-08 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'For amateurs and professionals alike wishing to deepen their understanding of the often mysterious and counter-intuitive fluctuations in asset prices, this book provides essential reading.' - Barry Riley, Financial Times 'Really required reading.' - Anthony Harris, Times According to mainstream economic theory, the prices of individual stocks respond rationally to unexpected news. However, real market movements appear to respond to news in more complex and sometimes perverse ways, overshooting or not reacting at all. Drawing on his hands-on experience, Professor Pepper puts forward a new theory based on the analysis of the supply of and demand for investible funds. He shows clearly that price movements are governed not by news but by the financial requirements of investors, requirements which therefore become a powerful forecasting tool.

Book Synopsis To what extent should monetary policy take asset prices into account? by : Frederik Schröder
Download or read book To what extent should monetary policy take asset prices into account? written by Frederik Schröder and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2012-02-15 with total page 13 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2009 in the subject Economics - Macro-economics, general, grade: A, University of Otago, language: English, abstract: Monetary policy makers set policy in order to minimize deviations of actual inflation from some predetermined level while paying attention to deviations of output from potential. The extent to which asset prices should be taken into account, when setting policy aimed at achieving the desired goal, has moved into the focus of academic debate, as low and stable consumer price inflation (at least in OECD countries) has been achieved. There are several distinct possibilities regarding how asset prices can be incorporated when determining the interest rate (or the money supply). Two extreme approaches that can be taken are specifically targeting asset prices and “pricking asset bubbles” upon their emergence. These views however, have been rejected with sufficient consensus (Isssing, 2009). More moderate alternatives are the “leaning against the wind” approach and the orthodox view. “Leaning against the wind” implies tolerating a certain deviation from price stability while simultaneously attempting to prevent the emergence of a bubble (Kohn, 2006). The orthodox view says that asset prices should be ignored beyond their impact on consumer price inflation. When strong informational requirements and specific conditions are met, however, an argument for the “leaning against the wind” approach can be made. The probability that a bubble is correctly identified must be high, the future growth of the bubble needs to be sensitive to interest rates and the economic inefficiencies arising from a burst of the bubble should rise with the size of the bubble (Trichet, 2005). However, if these conditions are not met, central banks are likely to achieve higher macroeconomic stability by following the orthodox approach.
