This technical note details an equilibrium asset pricing model for stocks and bonds under economic growth and inflation uncertainties using the Epstein and Zin preferences. Specifically, the results show that both equity and bond risk premiums are priced by growth and inflation uncertainties....

There is a myriad of financial anomalies in the cross-section of equity returns. They have been widely studied in the literature, which gives investors a large choice in terms of investment styles. In this paper, the authors show a perhaps unappreciated quality of financial anomalies: they...

Heterogeneous-agents asset pricing theories imply that stockholders' consumption has the first-order effect on equity premium. Motivated by these theories, we evaluate the performance of the conditional CCAPM in explaining time-variation in market returns and cross-sectional variation in...

We propose a model where heterogeneous investors endogenously enter or exit the stock market. We characterize the equilibrium and present a novel conditional consumption-CAPM. The model implies a mild procyclical market entry and countercyclical exit. This small change in the composition of...

This article studies the pricing implications of learning about arrivals of economic disasters and the subsequent recoveries. We model a disaster as a separate phase, and transitions between the disaster and the normal phase introduce structual changes to the consumption process which triggers...

We test whether long-run consumption risk can explain the cross-section of corporate bond risk premiums. We find that a one-factor model with long-run consumption growth explains the risk premiums on bond portfolios sorted on credit spreads, maturity, credit rating, downside risk, idiosyncratic...
