They do. Partly. We identify credit supply shocks via sign restrictions in a Bayesian VAR and separate them into positive and negative. Using local projections, we find that positive credit supply shocks leave notably different prints in private debt, mortgage debt, and debt: GDP, as opposed to...

We study the time-varying effects of Tobin's q and cash flow on investment dynamics in the USA using a vector … variation over time of the response of investment to shocks in both variables. The time-varying sensitivity of investment to a … shock in Tobin's q (cash flow) decreased (increased) since the early 1960s through the early 1980s, increased (decreased …

This paper elaborates on the relative importance of sectoral shocks for real economic activity in Germany. Implications of multisectoral real business cycle models are examined by resorting to testing techniques based on stock market returns. The empirical evidence is obtained by calculating...
