Value versus Growth: Time-Varying Expected Stock Returns
Is the value premium predictable? We study time variations of the expected value premium using a two-state Markov switching model. We find that when conditional volatilities are high, the expected excess returns of value stocks are more sensitive to aggregate economic conditions than the expected excess returns of growth stocks. As a result, the expected value premium is time varying. It spikes...
متن کاملExponential Growth Bias and Household Finance
We document two widespread biases in how consumers perceive the costs and benefits of borrowing and saving, and explore the implications of these biases for household finance. Payment/interest bias is the systematic tendency to underestimate a loan interest rate given other loan terms. Future value bias is the systematic tendency to underestimate a future value given a present value, time horiz...
متن کاملExponential Growth Bias and Financial Literacy
Exponential Growth Bias and Financial Literacy The tendency to underestimate the future value of a variable growing at a constant rate, an example of exponential growth bias, has been linked to household financial decision making. We show that exponential growth bias and standard measures of financial literacy are negatively correlated in a representative sample of Swedish adults. Since financi...

working papers are produced by the Bradford University School of Management and are to be circulated for discussion purposes only. Their contents should be considered to be preliminary. The papers are expected to be published in due course, in a revised form and should not be quoted without the author's permission. ABSTRACT This paper studies the economic significance of stock and bond return p...
متن کاملExponential stability of time-varying linear systems
This paper considers the stability of both continuous and discrete time-varying linear systems. Stability estimates are obtained in either case in terms of the Lipschitz constant for the governing matrices and the assumed uniform decay rate of the corresponding frozen time linear systems. The main techniques used in the analysis are comparison methods, scaling and the application of continuous ...
