This paper looks at the effect of demand shocks on the investment share of the economy. Using panel data on 20 OECD … countries, we show that the rate of growth of autonomous demand (exports, public spending and housing investment) is positively … correlated with subsequent values of the share of business investment in GDP. By means of an instrumental-variables strategy, we …

We develop a model of investment with financial constraints and use it to investigate the relation between investment … between q and investment, relative to the frictionless benchmark. We present a calibrated version of the model, which, due to … this effect, generates realistic correlations between investment, q, and cash flow …
