- Abstract
- A short run asset demand model is solved for the spot foreign exchange rate using the Lucas method of undetermined coefficients. The incorporation of noisy rational expectations into the model allows the possibility of uncertainty in the market such that individuals who rely on the spot rate for information may at times obtain ambiguous siqnals. The spot rate, under these circumstances, only imperfectly conveys information and a transitory informational disequilibrium may result. A Bayesian approach is adopted in order to incorporate prior beliefs and make Bayesian inference about the model using sample Australian data.
