We combine general equilibrium theory and théorie générale of stochastic processes to derive structural results about equilibrium state prices. -- General equilibrium ; Continuous-time finance ; Théorie générale of stochastic processes ; Asset pricing ; State prices

We consider nonparametric identification and estimation of pricing kernels, or equivalently of marginal utility functions up to scale, in consumption based asset pricing Euler equations. Ours is the first paper to prove nonparametric identification of Euler equations under low level conditions...

In this paper we study the impact of the degree of concentration of a financial system on the aggregate demand for housing as well as the feedback effect of the size of the mortgage loan market on lenders' profits, internal capital accumulation, loan losses and potential bailouts. In a general...

We explicitly solve for the aggregate asset pricing quantities of a general equilibrium Lucas endowment economy inhabited by two agents with habit formation preferences. Preferences are modeled either as internal or external habits. We allow for agents' heterogeneity in relative risk aversion...

We study the asset pricing implications of a general equilibrium Lucas endowment economy inhabited by two agents with habit formation preferences. Preferences are modeled either as internal or external habits. We allow for agents' heterogeneity in relative risk aversion and habit strength. We...

We explicitly solve for the aggregate asset prices in a general equilibrium Lucas endowment economy with two agents who are heterogeneous in their time-nonseparable preferences. Time-nonseparability is modeled either as internal or external habit preferences. Equilibrium quantities -- equity...

We show in a fairly general setting of a buyer and seller with the same preferences trading two related assets so as to share volatility risk that illiquidity and virtually all impediments to trade cannot be priced. This is because the buying and selling counterparties must both be optimizing....

Using taxicab tipping records in New York City (NYC), we develop a novel measure of real-time utility and quantitatively assess the impact of wealth change on the well-being of individuals based on the core tenet of prospect theory. The baseline estimate suggests that a one standard deviation...

We explicitly solve for the aggregate asset prices in a discrete-time general-equilibrium endowment economy with two agents who differ with respect to their preferences for risk aversion and sensitivity to habit, either internal or external. We compute equilibrium quantities -- equity premium,...

We report the results of an experiment designed to study the determinants of asset price movement and consumption smoothing behavior across asset markets populated with varying proportion of traders with and without having induced motive to smooth consumption. Although the asset is over-priced...
