We take a simple q-theory model and ask how well it can explain external financing anomalies, both qualitatively and … performance of issuing and cash-distributing firms, and the failure of the CAPM in explaining the long-term stock-price drifts …

This paper examines to what extent stock market anomalies are driven by firm fundamentals in an investment-based asset pricing framework. Using Bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC), we estimate a two-capital q-model to match firm-level stock returns, instead of matching portfolio-level...

A standard assumption of structural models of default is that firms' assets evolve exogenously. In this paper, we examine the importance of accounting for investment options in models of credit risk. In the presence of financing and investment frictions, fi rm-level variables that proxy for...

Q-theory predicts that investment frictions steepen the relation between expected returns and firm investment. Using … constrained firms. There is no evidence that q-theory with investment frictions explains the investment growth, net stock issues …, abnormal corporate investment, or net operating assets anomalies. Limits-to-arbitrage proxies dominate q-theory with investment …

I study the asset pricing implications and the efficiency of a tractable dynamic stochastic general equilibrium model with heterogeneous agents and incomplete markets along the lines of Krebs (2003a). Contrary to previous applications of these types of models, I find that generically the...

We classify asset pricing anomalies into those that exacerbate mispricing (build-up anomalies) and those that resolve it (resolution anomalies). To this end, we estimate the dynamics of price wedges for a large number of well-known anomaly portfolios in the factor zoo and map them to firm-level...

Time-to-build, time-to-produce, and inventory have important implications for asset prices and quantity dynamics in a general equilibrium model with recursive preferences. Time-to-build captures the delay in transforming new investments into productive capital, and time-to-produce captures the...

We study an economy with a CEO who trades off the incentive to divert funds, which leads to underinvestment, against the incentive to overinvest based on his optimism. In equilibrium, we see overinvestment relative to what the shareholder or a social planner would implement but underinvestment...
