johnowens | MV = PQ V = PQ/M so money supply will affect velocity? |
charliedba | No. The equation does not give you "this causes that" thing. It simply says "this equals that". |
Rubbish | V and Q are usually held constant.V is influenced by the organisation of the banks, not the quantity of money. |
schweitzdm | Another way to see this: M and V are on the same side of the equation. Thus, they do not influence each other in the context of this question. |
