I study the long-run behavior of a two-agent economy where agents differ in their beliefs and are endowed with homothetic recursive preferences of the Duffie-Epstein-Zin type. When preferences are separable, the economy is dominated in the long run by the agent whose beliefs are relatively more...

This paper analyzes whether the market portfolio is efficiently related to benchmark portfolios formed on size, value, momentum and reversal with various utility theories by using stochastic dominance criteria. The results support the prospect theory including assumption of loss aversion at...

This article investigates the portfolio selection problem of an investor with three-moment preferences taking positions in commodity futures. To model the asset returns, we propose a conditional asymmetric t copula with skewed and fat-tailed marginal distributions, such that we can capture the...

We explore a satisficing approach (Simon, 1955) to measure risk preference, which suggests cognitive limitations to decision making. In an experiment, subjects invest in a portfolio that contains a risk-free bond and a risky asset which has high or low return states with equal probability. The...

This article investigates the effects of small proportional transaction costs on lifetime consumption and portfolio decisions. The extant literature has focused on agents with additive utility; here, we argue that this is essentially without loss of generality at the leading order for small...

This paper derives the implications for portfolio choice of a loss averse investor with Kőszegi and Rabin (2006) reference-dependent preferences. Returns falling below the investor's target return - his return floor - are regarded as losses. It is shown that the first-order lower partial moment...

I study the long-run behavior of an economy with two types of agents who differ in their beliefs and are endowed with homothetic recursive preferences of the Duffie-Epstein-Zin type. Contrary to models with separable preferences in which the wealth of agents with incorrect beliefs vanishes in...
