Evolution and market behavior with endogenous investment rules
Bottazzi, Giulio; Dindo, Pietro - In: Journal of Economic Dynamics and Control 48 (2014) C, pp. 121-146
In a repeated market for short-lived assets, we investigate wealth-driven selection among investment rules that depend … be a common phenomenon generated by two different mechanisms. Firstly, conditioning investment decisions on endogenous … market variables implies that the relative performance of investment rules, in terms of average growth rates, may be …

The impact of a financial transaction tax on stylized facts of price returns—Evidence from the lab
Huber, Jürgen; Kleinlercher, Daniel; Kirchler, Michael - In: Journal of Economic Dynamics and Control 36 (2012) 8, pp. 1248-1266
As the introduction of financial transaction taxes is increasingly discussed by political leaders we explore possible consequences such taxes could have on markets. Here we examine how “stylized facts”, namely fat tails and volatility clustering, are affected by different tax regimes in...

Resource prices and planning horizons
Spiro, Daniel - In: Journal of Economic Dynamics and Control 48 (2014) C, pp. 159-175
This paper shows that a seemingly simple assumption – that agents use a rolling planning horizon – can reconcile the puzzling long run price dynamics of exhaustible resources such as oil, gas and metals. A rolling horizon has the effect of removing the scarcity consideration of resource...

Sufficiency of an outside bank and a default penalty to support the value of fiat money: Experimental evidence
Huber, Jürgen; Shubik, Martin; Sunder, Shyam - In: Journal of Economic Dynamics and Control 47 (2014) C, pp. 317-337
We present a model in which an outside bank and a default penalty support the value of fiat money, and experimental evidence that the theoretical predictions about the behavior of such economies, based on the Fisher-condition, work reasonably well in a laboratory setting. The import of this...

Non-transferable non-hedgeable executive stock option pricing
Colwell, David B.; Feldman, David; Hu, Wei - In: Journal of Economic Dynamics and Control 53 (2015) C, pp. 161-191
To value non-transferable non-hedgeable (NTNH) contingent claims and price executive stock options (ESOs), we use a replication argument to translate portfolios with NTNH derivatives into portfolios of primary assets (only) with stochastic portfolio constraints. By identifying stochastic...

Computing equilibria in dynamic models with occasionally binding constraints
Brumm, Johannes; Grill, Michael - In: Journal of Economic Dynamics and Control 38 (2014) C, pp. 142-160
We propose a method to compute equilibria in dynamic models with several continuous state variables and occasionally binding constraints. These constraints induce non-differentiabilities in policy functions. We develop an interpolation technique that addresses this problem directly: It locates...
