This paper models the impact of arbitrageurs on stock prices when arbitrageurs are uncertain about the drift of the dividend process of a risky asset. Under perfect information, the presence of risk-neutral arbitrageurs unambiguously reduces the volatility of asset returns. When arbitrageurs are...

We find that … there is model uncertainty with regard to the number of cointegrating vectors, the form of deterministic components, lag … length, and whether the cointegrating residuals affect consumption and income directly. Whether this uncertainty has …

Specifically, we derive measures of disagreement and uncertainty by using a … propositions that disagreement is a useful proxy for uncertainty and that increases in expected inflation are accompanied by …

This paper examines the performance of forecast-based nonlinear Taylor rules in a class of simple microfunded models. The paper shows that even if the policy rule leads to a locally determinate (and stable) inflation target, there exist other learnable "global" equilibria such as cycles and...
