job…however try to do a Google news search.

They must be a little more important that the classical world would suggest!

Now, suppose that the Fed increases the money supply. In a
classical world, the price level would increase. However, if prices
are fixed…
If the interest rate falls to bring the money market into equilibrium, the
capital market is out of equilibrium.

In a Keynesian world, the economy is demand determined. That is, the
economy supplies whatever is demanded. In this case higher demand raises
production
Higher production has two effects

• Higher production (which means higher income) raises money demand

We need to identify an equilibrium relationship between current GDP and
the interest rate in the capital market. All else equal, a rise in current GDP
will raise savings which lowers the interest rate.
