Arbitrage and Optimal Portfolio Choice with Financial Constraints
Elsinger, Helmut; Summer, Martin - 2001
We analyze the pricing of risky income streams in a world with competitive security markets where investors are constrained by restrictions on possible portfolio holdings. We investigate how we can transfer concepts and pricing techniques from a world without frictions to such a more realistic...

The contribution of frictions to expected returns
Hirakiy, Kazuhiro; Skiadopoulos, George - 2018
We derive a model-free option-based formula to estimate the contribution of market frictions to expected returns (CFER) within an asset pricing setting. We estimate CFER for the U.S. optionable stocks. We document that CFER is sizable, it predicts stock returns and it subsumes the effect of...

Reits' Growth Options and Asset Pricing Dynamics across Time
Tan, Cheng Wee; Tirtiroglu, Dogan; Tirtiroglu, Ercan - 2013
Our paper makes two empirical contributions on REITs' asset pricing over three sequential and mutually exclusive time periods. The first yields the beta estimates of (i) assets, (ii) growth options and (iii) assets-in-place, embedded in the valuations of REITs. We develop a new approach to...

Jumps in option prices and their determinants: Real-time evidence from the E-mini S&P 500 option market
Kapetanios, George; Neumann, Michael; Skiadopoulos, George - 2014
We study the real-time characteristics and drivers of jumps in option prices. To this end, we employ high frequency data from the 24-hour E-mini S&P 500 options market. We find that option prices do not jump simultaneously across strikes and maturities and are uncorrelated with jumps in the...

The contribution of transaction costs to expected stock returns: A novel measure
Hiraki, Kazuhiro; Skiadopoulos, George - 2023
We document that a theoretically founded, real-time, and easy-to-implement option-based measure, termed synthetic-stock difference (SSD), accurately estimates the part of stock's expected return arising from stock's transaction costs. We calculate SSD for U.S. optionable stocks. SSD can be more...

Credit risk and disaster risk
Gourio, François - 2012
Credit spreads are large, volatile and countercyclical, and recent empirical work suggests that risk premia, not … cycle model with a small, exogenously time-varying risk of economic disaster. The model replicates the level, volatility and … cyclicality of credit spreads, and variation in the corporate bond risk premium amplifies macroeconomic fluctuations in investment …

Bubbles and Leverage: A simple and unified approach
Barsky, Robert; Bogusz, Theodore - 2013
In this paper, we lay out a simple framework that captures much of what the theoretical literature has to say about the role of credit in systemically important asset booms and busts. In addition, we suggest ways in which to incorporate physical investment in the bubble asset as well as monetary...

Cash-in-the-market pricing in a model with money and over-the-counter financial markets
Mattesini, Fabrizio; Nosal, Ed - 2013
Entrepreneurs need cash to finance their real investments. Since cash is costly to hold, entrepreneurs will underinvest. If entrepreneurs can access financial markets prior to learning about an investment opportunity, they can sell some of their less liquid assets for cash and, as a result,...

Too good to be true? Fallacies in evaluating risk factor models
Gospodinov, Nikolaj; Kan, Raymond; Robotti, Cesare - 2017
This paper is concerned with statistical inference and model evaluation in possibly misspecified and unidentified linear asset-pricing models estimated by maximum likelihood and one-step generalized method of moments. Strikingly, when spurious factors (that is, factors that are uncorrelated with...
