Capital Reallocation and Liquidity with Search Frictions
I construct a model of an asset market subject to search frictions, in an environment where both investment and asset liquidity are determined endogenously. This provides a natural framework to analyze the interaction between capital reallocation and liquidity in response to aggregate shocks, which I assess quantitatively. The search model of capital reallocation exhibits strong internal propag...
متن کاملFinancial Frictions, Financial Shocks, and Aggregate Volatility

While financial price variables are smoother during the Great Moderation, financial quantity measures experience an immoderation. A model with financial frictions and financial shocks allowing for st...

During the recent U.S. financial crisis, the large decline in economic activity and credit was accompanied by a large increase in the dispersion of growth rates across firms.

These features motivate us to build a model in which increased volatility at the firm level generates a downturn ...

This paper studies how frictions, both real and financial, interact with capital tax policy in a dynamic, general equilibrium model with heterogeneous firms. Comparative statics show that tax policy can have substantially different effects depending upon the frictions present. Analytical and numerical exercises show that accounting for firm heterogeneity is important when evaluating the respons...
