Motivated by the problems of the conventional model in rationalizing market data, we derive the equilibrium interest rate and risk premiums using recursive utility in a continuous-time model. We use the stochastic maximum principle to analyze the model. This method uses forward/backward...

Share prices fluctuate far more than dividends. In contemporary lit- erature, this excess volatility is usually discussed involving the Camp- bell-Shiller present value identity. In our view, it is more appropriate to model future dividends and prices explicitly as random variables. We refer to...
