The present value discount rate (PVDR) is the expected rate of return on the best alternative asset (BAA) the investor forgoes when purchasing an asset. How do we calculate it in the competitive market context? The Discounted Future Income Model projects an asset’s annual future income or...

We consider a multi-period rational expectations model in which risk-averse investors differ in their information on past transaction prices (the ticker). Some investors (insiders) observe prices in real-time whereas other investors (outsiders) observe prices with a delay. As prices are...

We cross-sectionally analyze the presence of aggregated hidden depth and trade volume in the S&P 500 and identify its key determinants. We find that the spread is the main predictor for a stock's hidden dimension, both in terms of traded and posted liquidity. Our findings moreover suggest that...

Fundamental information resembles in many respects a durable good. Hence, the effects of its incorporation into stock prices depend on who is the agent controlling its flow. Like a durable goods monopolist, a monopolistic analyst selling information intertemporally competes against herself. This...

We consider a multi-period rational expectations model in which risk-averse investors differ in their information on past transaction prices (the ticker). Some investors (insiders) observe prices in real-time whereas other investors (outsiders) observe prices with a delay. As prices are...

We investigate the dynamics of prices, information and expectations in a competitive, noisy, dynamic asset pricing equilibrium model. We show that prices are farther away from (closer to) fundamentals compared with average expectations if and only if traders over- (under-) rely on public...

We propose a theory that jointly accounts for an asset illiquidity and for the asset price potential over-reliance on public information. We argue that, when trading frequencies differ across traders, asset prices reflect investors' Higher Order Expectations (HOEs) about the two factors that...

This study investigates the relationship between overconfidence and meme stock valuation, drawing on panel data from 28 meme stocks listed from 2019 to 2024. The analysis incorporates key financial indicators, including Tobin's Q ratio, market capitalization, return on assets, leverage, and...

The purpose of this paper is to model differential rates over residual information sets, so as to shape transactional algebras into operational grounds. Firstly, simple differential rates over residual information sets are introduced by taking advantage of finite algebras of sets. Secondly,...

This paper investigates the cross-sectional implications of equity duration, the present-value weighted average time for shareholders to receive cash-flows from a firm. A portfolio that buys the top quintile and sells the bottom quintile of firms differing in the one-year ex-ante probability of...
