Rational expectations, hyperinflation, and the demand for money

Lawrence Christiano

No 163, Working Papers from Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis

The slope parameter in Cagan?s portfolio balance equation is identified in some of these models and in others it is not?a fact which clarifies results obtained in several recent papers.
