Abstract: | This paper analyzes the reaction of spot and forward exchange rates to unanticipated weekly money supply changes. The empirical results tend to support the (overshooting) hypothesis that equilibrium exchange-rate changes that occur in the short run in response to an unanticipated event exceed the equilibrium exchange-rate change in the long rung. |
