Fundamentals and money supply: Understanding how it works
We start with a simple theoretical model of intertemporal consumption choice given in the Appendix to describe the relationship between the value of a risky asset and the money supply. Unsurprisingly, we find that the higher the money supply, the lower the risk premium that should be used to calculate the fundamental value of the risky asset. This provides a basis for the negative correlation observed between risk premium and money supply .
