The Fisher Hypothesis and International Capital Markets

Journal of Political Economy, 1986
In a closed economy with interest taxes at rate τ and with a constant real et rate of interest, the nominal rate of interest should rise by 1/(1 - τ) points for every point rise in the expected rate of inflation. However, a large body of empirical work examines the determinants of nominal interest rates and generally finds that the coefficient of ...

A Comment on Fisher and Temin on the Schumpeterian Hypothesis

Journal of Political Economy, 1979
In a recent paper, Franklin Fisher and Peter Temin (hereafter F-T) attempt to disprove the logic of the Schumpeterian proposition that industrial concentration would increase industry's R & D output given the existence of increasing returns to scale to R & D activities with respect to research input and firm size.

Inflation, hedging, and the fisher hypothesis

Journal of Macroeconomics, 1987
This paper presents an interest rate equation that is based on the “inverted Fisher hypothesis” but that allows for a time-variant interest premium corresponding to the implicit return on monetary services. This premium is decomposed into time-variant capital risk and hedging premiums. Empirical evidence from Canada, the U.K. and the U.S.

Tests of the Fisher Hypothesis with International Data: Theory and Evidence

The Journal of Finance, 1983
THE FISHER HYPOTHESIS [7, 8] states that nominal interest rates adjust fully to expected inflation. For years tests of this hypothesis followed Fisher [8] in regressing nominal rates on a distributed lag of past inflation, which was used as a proxy for the expected rate of inflation.

A Note on Fisher Hypothesis and Price Level Uncertainty

The Journal of Financial and Quantitative Analysis, 1977
The theory on the relationship between real and nominal interest rates is based on the well-known Fisher equation: where: i = nominal interest rate; r = real interest rate; λ = percentage change in price level: P /P 0 - 1 where P and P 0 denote end-of-period and current levels of some aggregate price index, respectively.

Share returns and the Fisher hypothesis reconsidered

Applied Financial Economics, 2002
This paper compares and tests the four different proxy hypotheses and examines their ability to explain two empirical regularities, namely that the inflation elasticity of share returns tends towards zero in the postwar period and towards two in the interwar period.
