Q-Monetary Transmission

Journal of Political Economy 2024 132(3), 971-1012
We study the effects of monetary policy–induced changes in Tobin’s q on corporate investment and capital structure. We develop a theory of the mechanism, provide empirical evidence, evaluate the ability of the quantitative theory to match the evidence, and quantify the relevance for monetary transmission to aggregate investment.
