Three Factors Drive Asset Prices
Expected cash flows, the discount rate, and the risk premium - all affect the price of just about any investment.
Take buying a restaurant. How would one think about the price of that investment today?
First, one would consider how much profit to expect the restaurant to make next year, the following year, and so on. Those are the expected future cash flows.
Then, since there is always the option of just keeping one’s cash in the bank and earning interest on it (which would be a lot less uncertain than trying to guess how well the restaurant will do), one would want to discount the cash flows to consider the amount of interest that could have been earned.
And on top of that, you’d probably want a risk premium - some additional compensation for taking on the risk and uncertainty of owning a restaurant instead of just putting one’s money in the bank.

Discounted Cash Flow

Risk Premium

How much one is willing to pay for the restaurant depends on all three factors. And as these factors move around - as expectations for cash flows, discount rates and/or risk premiums change - the price moves around as well.
