Financial Innovation and Asset Price Volatility
We compare asset prices in an overlapping generations model for incomplete and complete markets. Individuals within a generational cohort have heterogeneous beliefs about future states of the economy and thus would like to make bets against each other. In the incomplete-markets economy, agents cannot make such bets. Asset price volatility is very small. The situation changes dramatically when m...
متن کاملParticipation Externalities and Asset Price Volatility
I analyze how an exogenous cost of entry in a risky asset market a®ects two endogenous variables: the degree of market participation and the price volatility. I show that di®erent entry costs generate different participation equilibria and multiplicity of equilibria arises for some range of entry costs, but the new market entrants are always more risk-averse than the rest of the participants. E...
متن کاملForecasting Crude Oil Price Volatility
We use high-frequency intra-day realized volatility to evaluate the relative forecasting performance of several models for the volatility of crude oil daily spot returns. Our objective is to evaluate the predictive ability of time-invariant and Markov switching GARCH models over different horizons. Using Carasco, Hu and Ploberger (2014) test for regime switching in the mean and variance of the ...
متن کاملEconomic Policy Uncertainty & Asset Price Volatility∗
We document that fear about misspecified economic and central bank policies explain 45% of variations in bond option implied volatilities and interest rate volatilities. We endogenize this empirical pattern with a parsimonious equilibrium asset pricing model. In equilibrium, volatility is endogenously driven by fear of not knowing the data generating process that drives future economic and futu...
متن کاملPrice volatility, welfare, and trading hours in asset markets
This paper studies the consequences of opening asset markets more often for the properties of asset prices and social welfare. For all reasonable parameter values, increasing trading hours lowers average asset prices, increases unconditional asset price volatility at a given point in time, and decreases unconditional asset price volatility when averaged over the period of time that includes the...
