Tom Friend Kake: I agree very much with you. The stock market is the home to which many dollars have fled; I think it is overvalued, but until there is somewhere else for the money to go, it may be a long-lived 'bubble' of sorts. The distribution of income in the US is so skewed that the wealthy are driving tax policies and the like to their own long-term detriment. At some point we hope they will realize they need customers to enjoy more wealth, and customers without income are not ... customers.

Thank you sir for such nice lectures. I have three questions. In one text I saw a discussion in which they said that interest rate causes money supply to increase but they didn't explain it at all. Second like you said that there is no inflation when we are in the liquidity trap. can you please elaborate the explanation a bit further that why that might be so? Third is that when income distribution becomes so skewed like you say will it not be the case that arrangements like WTO may enable the rich producers to find customers in other countries thereby lowering any worry to reduce income inequalities locally.

When the economy has lost jobs - say in construction - new money can reduce interest rates and stimulate demand for housing and thus create jobs. As long as borrowers still have steady income and reasonably positive expectations. This is a short-run stimulus, much like warming up an engine. But when borrowers have no jobs, businesses have no customers, and very low interest rates aren't attractive to either one. Thus - a liquidity trap.

Another reason banks aren't lending is that the regulatory hoops just to make a home loan are significantly greater than they were. I understand that just fogging a mirror isn't really enough to get a loan, but any banker will tell you it's a bit over the top.

It's the basic demand and supply principle. As the money supply goes up, the demand for money decreases. And since interest rates can been seen as the price for money.. What happens with the price when the demand falls? It decreases.

very useful video. But I don't get how increasing Money Supply in a Liquidity Trap doesn'nt cause inflation? In a liquidity Trap people, after the Central bank increases Money supply people will prefer to hold money and not buy bonds since interest is very low, so interest wont get lower. But when they keep their money instead of buying bonds, they will use it for transactions and thus increase consumption and thus Aggregate Demand will increase causes prices to increase?

Is the DSGE model a good model in a liquidity trap situation?
@TheWyvern667 жыл бұрын
The DSGE model is founded on neo-liberal/classical microeconomics assumptions - much as is the microeconomic 'perfectly competitive world' model. As such, many of the assumptions are logically appealing, rational, and aesthetically pleasing, ... but the 'real' world is not 'ceteris paribus' - i.e., things keep changing, which reduces the predictive power of the microeconomic models, especially in the short run. For that reason, I personally don't hold much faith in it.

sir please explain why will people hold more cash when Interest rates are low, wouldnt they look at other options that give better returns... and By this interest rate you mean the one we get on deposits..or the one on bonds
@rogerstrickland40047 жыл бұрын
The simplistic initial assumption is that you either hold cash or invest it, nominally in bonds. You could extend that, but the focus is one how much cash you will hold and thus forego any return on that money. Bonds are a helpful investment vehicle to describe this: if you hold a 1% bond, your return is miniscule and - worse - if interest rates DO rise, your bond will decrease in value. So at low interest rates you have two reasons to hold cash - the low return you would otherwise earn and the risk of a depreciation in the value/price of your investment. At high interest rates, you would favor bonds both because they pay a respectable return AND because if interest rates fall (more likely than them rising) your investment appreciates in value/price.

my question is , when you have a negative inflation rate, and a positive nominal rate. the real interest rate is actually positive,(R=i-(-)Inflation =positive real rate. now what are the implication of this theory? would you consider that the liquidity trap is temporary since the real interest rate is actually positive?

Being a newbie to this stuff, then I actually don't understand why the "other economists" recommend an increase in the money supply to "get the lenders lending again". Because surely at zero interest rates [ZLB] an increase in the money supply will do no good. As far as I understand [please correct me if I'm wrong], the purpose of increasing the money supply is to _decrease the interest rate_. If interest rates are high, the central bank buys up bonds from the commercial banks, which gives them a large supply of cash. This surplus they are then willing to loan at lower interest rates, encouraging customers to take out loans that has the net effect of increasing spending. This then bolsters the economy. However, in a liquidity trap, interest rates are at or near zero [correct me if I'm wrong, but *this is a fundamental condition of a "liquidity trap"*]. So further increases in the money supply achieve nothing. What I don't understand is why those other economists think that at this zero lower bound, increasing the money supply has any effect [FOR OBVIOUS REASONS!!!]. If it is like I just outlined [and I'm sure it's oversimplified], it seems daft to be stuck on such an obvious point. Or have I missed something?

I thought that the FED could still create inflation in a liquidity trap by injecting money by making prices go up and the dollar diminish. The FED even says that is the only way to get out of the liquidity trap since it will cause people to spend the money they are "hoarding". The FED says that people will spend more instead of save since they will see no point in having high savings when the dollar is diminishing in value.
@dm84114 жыл бұрын
Well the US is in real negative interest rate now with QE4 just beginning. What happens when you have negative real interest rates while continuing to increase the money supply.....runaway inflation. Pretty easy to get from 2.1% to 4% in 1 year. The Fed could then try winding back the balance sheet and put up rates but we got a sneak peak of that in early 2019 when the s&p almost went into a bear market. And that was just a modest adjustment.
@elifouts91795 жыл бұрын
If interest rates are low doesn’t that create an incentive for firms to borrow money and expand, therefore, increasing aggregate demand? Why does increasing the money supply in the liquidity trap not help the economy?
@rogerstrickland40045 жыл бұрын
The Liquidity Trap is in the context of the FED having tried to move the economy out of a severe recession/depression; they have dropped interest rates down, again and again. However, businesses have become pessimistic, consumers are either unemployed or afraid of becoming so, and so consumption spending is very low as well. Why borrow money - even at low interest rates - when you have no/few customers/sales? This is also called the 'Inelastic Investment demand" - business expectations are low/negative and until they see sales begin to return, they are reluctant to borrow.
