We propose a tractable model of dynamic investment, division sales (spinoffs), financing, and risk management for a multi-division firm that faces costly external finance. The model highlights the importance of considering the intertwined nature of the different policies. Our main results are as...

We consider a long-term portfolio choice problem with two illiquid and correlated assets and formulate it as an eigenvalue problem in the form of a variational inequality. The eigenvalue is associated with the portfolio’s optimal long-term growth rate, and the free boundaries implied by the...

We propose a unified dynamic framework to study the economics of the supply side of bitcoin mining, such as endogenous transaction fees, the miners' liquidation policies, and endogenous inventory holdings, in the face of declining system block rewards and stochastic demand. The model yields two...

We propose a tractable model of dynamic investment, spinoffs, financing, and risk management for a multi-division firm facing costly external finance. Our main results are: (1) within-firm resource allocation is based not only on the divisions’ productivity—as in “winner picking”...
