In this paper the ‘Wilkie investment model’ is discussed, updated and extended. The original model covered price inflation, share dividends, share dividend yields (and hence share prices) and long-term interest rates, and was based on data for the United Kingdom from 1919 to 1982, taken at annual intervals. The additional aspects now covered include: the extension of the data period to 1994 (with omission of the period from 1919 to 1923); the inclusion of models for a wages (earnings) index, short-term interest rates, property rentals and yields (and hence property prices) and yields on index-linked stock; consideration of data for observations more frequently than yearly, in particular monthly data; extension of the U.K. model to certain other countries; introduction of a model for currency exchange rates; extension of certain aspects of the model to a larger number of other countries; and consideration of more elaborate forms of time-series modelling, in particular cointegrated models and ARCH models.
