摘要
There is considerable disagreement regarding the role of monetary policy to deal with asset price inflation. It is claimed here, that current asset prices reflect, at least partially, a new equilibrium situation and it is not a bubble. This is the consequence of the globalisation-induced wealth concentration that leads to increase demand for scarce assets. In these conditions, monetary policy should not attempt to control asset prices.
