六、 报告摘要
People's animal spirits are prime drivers of U.S. business cycle fluctuations. This finding is demonstrated within an estimated artificial macroeconomy of financial market frictions. Animal spirits shocks account for well over a third of output fluctuations over the period from 1955 to 2014. Financial friction and technology shocks are considerably less important. We also find that a substantial part of aggregate output's contraction during the Great Recession was caused by adverse shocks to expectations.
