Items related to New Perspectives on Asset Price Bubbles
This volume critically re-examines the profession's understanding of asset bubbles in light of the global financial crisis of 2007-09. It is well known that bubbles have occurred in the past, with the October 1929 crash as the most demonstrative example. However, the remarkably well-behaved performance of the US economy from 1945 to 2006, and, in particular during the Great Moderation period of 1984 to 2006, assured the economics profession and monetary policymakers that asset bubbles could be effectively managed with little or no real economic impact. The recent financial crisis has now triggered a debate about the emergence of a sequence of repeated bubbles in the Nasdaq market, housing market, credit market, and commodity markets. The realities of the crisis have intensified theoretical modeling, empirical methodologies, and debate on policy issues surrounding asset price bubbles and their potentially adverse economic impact if poorly managed. Taking a novel approach, the editors of this book present five classic papers that represent accepted thinking about asset bubbles prior to the financial crisis. They also include original papers challenging orthodox thinking and presenting new insights. A summary essay highlights the lessons learned and experiences gained since the crisis.

Review:
"This unique and thoughtfully constructed volume systematically reconsiders recent classic contributions to formal theoretical modeling of asset pricing bubbles. The originality and comprehensiveness of the collection is as impressive as the star-studded cast of contributors. A must read for anyone trying to come to grips with the new directions in monetary policy and macroprudential financial regulation."--Charles W. Calomiris, Columbia Business School
"Perhaps the most important, but most intractable, question for monetary policy today is whether, and if so how, a Central Bank should lean against a strong asset price boom. This book collects contributions from the best and brightest economists in the field to discuss this issue. I thoroughly recommend it."--C. Goodhart, London School of Economics
"The experience of the last several years has reminded us that central banks face no greater challenge than maintaining financial stability. This volume does a masterful and innovative job of bringing the reader up to date on the issues and also offering interesting and balanced new perspectives." --Mark Gertler, New York University
