We rely on recently developed general equilibrium asset pricing models, from which we derive some predictions about how heterogeneity of beliefs affects return and volatility dynamics. The first contribution of our paper is the derivation of a simple decomposition of the conditional stock...

We study how heterogeneous beliefs affect returns and examine whether they are a priced factor in traditional asset pricing models. To accomplish this task, we suggest new empirical measures based on the disagreement among analysts about expected earnings (short-term and long-term) and show they...

We study asset pricing in economies featuring both risk and uncertainty. In our empirical analysis, we measure risk via return volatility and uncertainty via the degree of disagreement of professional forecasters, attributing different weights to each forecaster. We empirically model the typical...
