We use information in higher-order moments to identify aggregate supply and aggregate demand shocks for the U.S. economy. Traditional methods based on sign restrictions and/or second-order moments yield only “set” or “interval” identification but higher-order moments are shown to...

We study the interrelationship between capital flows, returns, dividend yields and world interest rates in 20 emerging markets. We estimate a vector autoregressionn with these variables to measure the degree to which lower interest rates contribute to increased capital flows and shocks in flows...

The so-called Fed model postulates that the dividend or earnings yield on stocks equals the yield on nominal Treasury bonds, or at least that they should be highly correlated. Indeed, there is a strikingly high time series correlation between the yield on nominal bonds and the dividend yield on...
