The Fed's TRAP: A Taylor-type Rule with Asset Prices
This paper examines if US monetary policy responds to asset prices. Using real-time data we estimate a Taylor-type rule with an asset price variable.

Moreover, especially real estate prices seem to have a close connection to monetary conditions. To analyze this link we d...
متن کاملBanking and Asset Prices ∗
We embed the notion of banks as monitors into a “two trees” framework, and consider how resources are optimally allocated between an intermediated banking sector and a risky sector, given that capital moves sluggishly between the two.
