Liquid Capital and Market Liquidity
研究流动资本供给如何影响资产市场流动性，认为即使没有中介或摩擦，可转换资本存量也是金融市场韧性的关键决定因素。
This article considers how the supply of liquid capital affects the liquidity of asset markets. The article views the former notion as a technological property of real investments and the latter as an endogenous property of financial market equilibrium, and describes a channel by which the two are linked. When agents hold more wealth in technologically liquid investments, a marginal adjustment to portfolio holdings alters discount rates less, causing a smaller price impact. Thus, even without intermediaries or frictions, the stock of transformable capital may be a crucial determinant of the resilience of financial markets. Copyright © The Author(s).
