Boivin, Jean - 2006

Standard practice for the estimation of dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) models maintains the assumption that economic variables are properly measured by a single indicator, and that all relevant information for the estimation is summarized by a small number of data series. However,...

Integrability and Generalized Separability

Fally, Thibault - 2018

This paper examines demand systems where the demand for a good depends only on its own price, consumer income, and a single aggregator synthesizing information on all other prices. This generalizes directly-separable preferences where the Lagrange multiplier provides such an aggregator. As...

Indeterminacy in a Forward Looking Regime Switching Model

Farmer, Roger E. A. - 2006

This paper is about the properties of Markov switching rational expectations (MSRE) models. We present a simple monetary policy model that switches between two regimes with known transition probabilities. The first regime, treated in isolation, has a unique determinate rational expectations...

What Drives the Disposition Effect? An Analysis of a Long-Standing Preference-Based Explanation

Barberis, Nicholas - 2006

explanation for this puzzle is based on prospect theory. Despite its prominence, this explanation has received little formal … scrutiny. We take up this task, and analyze the trading behavior of investors with prospect theory preferences. We find that …, at least for the simplest implementation of prospect theory, the link between these preferences and the disposition …

Environmental Investment and Policy with Distortionary Taxes and Endogenous Growth

Fullerton, Don - 2006

Recent studies consider public R&D spending that affects abatement knowledge and endogenous growth, distortionary taxes that affect physical and human capital formation, pollution taxes that affect environmental degradation, and regeneration that restores natural capital. Our model combines all...

Asset Pricing with Heterogeneous Consumers and Limited Participation : Empirical Evidence

Brav, Alon - 1999

The Euler equations of consumption are tested on the household consumption of non-durables and services, reconstructed from the CEX database. The estimated relative risk aversion coefficient of the representative household decreases, and the estimated unexplained mean equity premium decreases,...

Exploiting Symmetry in High-Dimensional Dynamic Programming

Kahou, Mahdi Ebrahimi; Fernández-Villaverde, Jesús; … - National Bureau of Economic Research - 2021

We propose a new method for solving high-dimensional dynamic programming problems and recursive competitive equilibria with a large (but finite) number of heterogeneous agents using deep learning. The "curse of dimensionality" is avoided due to four complementary techniques: (1) exploiting...

Asset Pricing with Heterogeneous Consumers and Limited Participation : Empirical Evidence

Brav, Alon - 2002

We present evidence that the equity premium and the premium of value stocks over growth stocks are explained in the 1982 1996 period with a stochastic discount factor (SDF) calculated as the weighted average of individual households' marginal rate of substitution with low and economically...
