Abstract
⺠We investigate the link between fiscal policy shocks and asset markets. ⺠Spending shocks have a positive effect on housing prices and a negative effect on stock prices. ⺠Fiscal shocks play a minor role in the U.S. and Germany. ⺠Fiscal shocks amplify the variability of housing and stock prices in the U.K. ⺠Government revenue shocks have increased volatility in Italy.
