We study revenue volatility of a monopolist selling a divisible good to consumers in the presence of local network externalities among consumers. Each consumer's utility depends on her consumption level as well as the consumption levels of her neighbors in a network through network...

We introduce a conditional volatility model that combines persistent volatility dynamics with spillovers from a wide cross-section of assets. We use elastic net estimation on a large, restricted VAR of realized measures to model these volatility dynamics. We show that despite the many parameters...

There is a large and growing literature on spillovers but no study that systematically evaluates the importance of spillovers for portfolio management. This paper provides such an analysis and demonstrates that spillovers are fully embedded in estimates of expected returns, variances, and...
