Tiivistelmä: | This paper explores how the supply of liquid capital affects the liquidity of asset markets. The paper 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 effect. Hence, even without intermediaries or frictions, the stock of transformable capital might be a central determinant of the resilience of financial markets. |
