We generalize the long-run risks (LRR) model in Bansal and Yaron (2004) by incorporating the recursive smooth ambiguity aversion preferences of Klibanoff, Marinacci, and Mukerji (2005, 2009) and time-varying ambiguity. Relative to the Bansal-Yaron model, the generalized LRR model remains...

I generalize the long-run risks (LRR) model of Bansal and Yaron (2004) by incorporating recursive smooth ambiguity aversion preferences from Klibanoff et al. (2005, 2009) and time-varying ambiguity. Relative to the Bansal-Yaron model, the generalized LRR model is as tractable but more flexible...

This paper investigates whether central banks can attenuate excessive mispricing in stocks as suggested by the … component, a risk premium, and a mispricing component. We argue that mispricing can arise for two reasons: (i) from false … policy shock is ambiguous in both the short- and long-run, and depends on the nature of the mispricing. Subsequently, we …

Using prices of both S&P 500 options and recently introduced VIX options, we study asset pricing implications of volatility risk. While pointing out the joint pricing kernel is not identified nonparametrically, we propose model-free estimates of marginal pricing kernels of the market return and...

In this study, I develop a novel methodology to extract crash risk premia from options and stock markets. I document a dramatic increase in crash risk premia after the 2008/2009 nancial crisis, indicating that investors are willing to pay high insurance to hedge against crashes in individual...

Because levered equity is an option on the firm, variations in asset idiosyncratic risk (ivol) induces a negative relationship between equity ivol and expected returns. We show that the effect is caused by the nonlinear payoff of equity and the law of one price, and is present in all but...

We work in the Uncertain Volatility Model setting of Avellaneda, Levy, Paras [1] and Lyons [10] (cf. also [11]). We first look at European options in a market with no interest rate and focus on theextreme case where the volatility has a lower bound but no upper bound. We show that the smallest...

We find that commodity risk is priced in the cross-section of US stock returns. Following the financialization of commodities, investors hedge commodity price risk directly in the futures market, primarily via commodity index investments, whereas before they gained commodity exposure mainly via...
