We present evidence that shocks to household consumption growth are negatively skewed, persistent, countercyclical, and drive asset prices. We construct a parsimonious model where heterogeneous households have recursive preferences. A single state variable drives the conditional cross-sectional...

In this paper, we study the relationship between income inequality and stock market returns. We develop a quantitative … general equilibrium model that links shifts in both labour and capital income inequality to stock market variables. An …-risky, labor share of income reduces it. When we calibrate our model to match the empirical size of shifts in the last Öve decades …

Realized capital gains are typically disregarded in the study of income inequality. We show that in the case of Sweden … this severely underestimates the actual increase in inequality and, in particular, top income shares during recent decades ….

We discover that letting agents pairwise sequentially exchange at "wrong" prices has a robust effect on prices at convergence. If the initial relative price for a good is cheaper than the equilibrium walrasian price due to initial endowments, the initial excess demand effect pushes resource...

This paper specifies and estimates a structural dynamic stochastic model of the way individuals make retirement and saving choices in an uncertain world, and applies that model to analyze the effects of the stock market bubble on retirement behavior. The model includes individual variation both...
