Optimal mean-variance robust hedging under asset price model misspecification
- Georgian Math. J
"... Abstract. The problem of constructing robust optimal in the mean-variance sense trading strategies is considered. The approach based on the notion of sensitivity of a risk functional of the problem w.r.t. small perturbation of asset price model parameters is suggested. The optimal mean-variance robu ..."

Transform Analysis and Asset Pricing for Affine Jump-Diffusions
- Econometrica
, 2000
"... In the setting of ‘‘affine’ ’ jump-diffusion state processes, this paper provides an analytical treatment of a class of transforms, including various Laplace and Fourier transforms as special cases, that allow an analytical treatment of a range of valuation and econometric problems. Example applicat ..."

applications include fixed-income pricing models, with a role for intensity-based models of default, as well as a wide range of option-pricing applications. An illustrative example examines the implications of stochastic volatility and jumps for option valuation. This example highlights the impact on option
Risks for the long run: A potential resolution of asset pricing puzzles
- JOURNAL OF FINANCE
, 1994
"... We model consumption and dividend growth rates as containing (i) a small long-run predictable component and (ii) fluctuating economic uncertainty (consumption volatility). These dynamics, for which we provide empirical support, in conjunction with Epstein and Zin’s (1989) preferences, can explain ke ..."

key asset markets phenomena. In our economy, financial markets dislike economic uncertainty and better long-run growth prospects raise equity prices. The model can justify the equity premium, the risk-free rate, and the volatility of the market return, risk-free rate, and the price-dividend ratio
Investor psychology and asset pricing
, 2001
"... The basic paradigm of asset pricing is in vibrant flux. The purely rational approach is being subsumed by a broader approach based upon the psychology of investors. In this approach, security expected returns are determined by both risk and misvaluation. This survey sketches a framework for understa ..."

A unified theory of underreaction, momentum trading and overreaction in asset markets
, 1999
"... We model a market populated by two groups of boundedly rational agents: “newswatchers” and “momentum traders.” Each newswatcher observes some private information, but fails to extract other newswatchers’ information from prices. If information diffuses gradually across the population, prices underre ..."

House Prices, Borrowing Constraints, and Monetary Policy in the Business Cycle
, 2002
"... I develop a general equilibrium model with sticky prices, credit constraints, nominal loans and asset prices. Changes in asset prices modify agents ’ borrowing capacity through collateral value; changes in nominal prices affect real repayments through debt deflation. Monetary policy shocks move asse ..."

Stock Market Prices Do Not Follow Random Walks: Evidence from a Simple Specification Test
- REVIEW OF FINANCIAL STUDIES
, 1988
"... In this article we test the random walk hypothesis for weekly stock market returns by comparing variance estimators derived from data sampled at different frequencies. The random walk model is strongly rejected for the entire sample period (1962--1985) and for all subperiod for a variety of aggrega ..."

Determining the Number of Factors in Approximate Factor Models
, 2000
"... In this paper we develop some statistical theory for factor models of large dimensions. The focus is the determination of the number of factors, which is an unresolved issue in the rapidly growing literature on multifactor models. We propose a panel Cp criterion and show that the number of factors c ..."

The idea that variations in a large number of economic variables can be modelled bya small number of reference variables is appealing and is used in manyeconomic analysis. In the finance literature, the arbitrage pricing
Asset Pricing in Production Economies,”
- Journal of Monetary Economics,
, 1998
"... Abstract This paper studies asset returns in different versions of the one-sector real business cycle model. We show that a model with habit formation preferences and capital adjustment costs can explain the historical equity premium and the average risk-free return while replicating the salient bu ..."

Noise Trader Risk in Financial Markets

The unpredictability of noise traders ’ beliefs creates a risk in the price of the asset that deters rational ..."
