Abstract
One of the most alarming features of the financial crisis in 2007 and 2008 was a strong drop in trading volume for mortgage-backed securities, credit derivatives and many other assets. Markets “froze” like deer caught in the headlights. The talk will introduce one likely explanation for such drops in liquidity and report the results of a quasi-experimental test in the real estate market.
