Answer 1

there is negative relationship between interest rate and investments means that as interest rate falls investment rises.And the opposite is true when interest rate rises.

Real interest rate helps to determine the trend of investment in an economy. When the interest rates are high, borrowing becomes quite expensive for the investors so they make less real investment. The high interest rates make it difficult to cover their expenditure because their products becomes less competitive in both the domestic and international market.

Thus the real interest rate through their effect on investment improves growth and future living standards of a nation.

Answer 2

A stock's required rate of return is made up of two parts: the risk-free rate and the risk premium. As the government adjusts key interest rates, the risk-free rate will change. If the government raises rates, the risk-free rate will rise also. If nothing else changes, the stock's target price should drop because the required return is higher. The reverse is true. If interest rates fall, then the stock's target price should rise because the required return has dropped.

There is a positive relationship between interest rate and savings. When interest rate is high people will save more in the banks or invest more so that they can get higher return on it. Higher the interest rate higher will be saving and vice versa.
