32、s expectations about future interest rates.nIf interest rates are expected to increase,L-T rates will be higher than S-T rates and vice versa.Thus,the yield curve can slope up or down.1-43nPEH assumes that MRP=0.nLong-term rates are an average of current and future short-term rates.nIf PEH is correc

33、t,you can use the yield curve to“back out”expected future interest rates.1-44Observed Treasury RatesIf PEH holds,what does the market expect will be the interest rate on one-year securities,one year from now?Three-year securities,two years from now?MaturityYield1 year6.0%2 years6.2%3 years6.4%4 year

35、.1-47nSome argue that the PEH isnt correct,because securities of different maturities have different risk.nGeneral view(supported by most evidence)is that lenders prefer S-T securities,and view L-T securities as riskier.nThus,investors demand a MRP to get them to hold L-T securities(i.e.,MRP 0).Conc
