Abstract
We build a new measure of investors’ attention around FOMC announcements by employing the Google Search Volume Index. Our measure shows that investors’ attention contributes and heightens the FOMC equity premium and reduces the volatility around the announcement. Although, we don’t claim causality we find that active attention gathers around the announcement the day before, remains constant around the event and drops just afterwards, consistent with the resolution of uncertainty.
