We estimate a production‐based general equilibrium model featuring demand‐ and supply‐side uncertainty and an endogenous term premium. Using term structure and macroeconomic data, we find sizable effects of uncertainty on risk premia and business cycle fluctuations. Both demand‐ and...

We construct an equilibrium term structure model that is robust to economic agent's uncertainty about the true data generating process. The low-dimensional two-factor long-run risk model captures the intuition that an ambiguity averse agent behaves pessimistically by attaching more weight to the...

We propose an affi ne two-factor model for the pricing of single-tranche collateralized debt obligations by following the general top-down framework introduced in Filipovic et al. [2011]. Apart from being analytically tractable, this model has the feature that it incorporates a catastrophic risk...

Dynamic economic models make predictions about impulse responses that characterize how macroeconomic processes respond to alternative shocks over different horizons. From the perspective of asset pricing, impulse responses quantify the exposure of macroeconomic processes and other cash flows to...

This paper examines the effect of different dimensions of uncertainty on expectations of WTI crude oil futures momentum traders at a daily level. We consider two concepts of uncertainty and two momentum trading indicators based on technical analysis. In addition, we also use wavelet techniques...

I provide evidence that risks in macroeconomic fundamentals contain valuable information about bond risk premia. I extract factors from a set of quantile-based risk measures estimated for US macroeconomic variables and document that they account for up to 31% of the variation in excess bond...
