Abstract: | This paper investigates when and how the response of interest rates to money announcements changed in recent years. The response of both short and long rates rises in October 1979, but drops during 1981. During mid-1982, the response of long rates raises again, but without a change in the response of short rates. Despite a number of ex post explanations for these shifts, none of the major hypotheses of why interest rates respond to money announcements provides a complete ex ante explanation of these response shifts. |
